HILFE! Zu hohe Feuchtigkeit!

Cawabunga
Cawabungastarted grow question 2 years ago
Ich bin in Woche 7. Um für genug Kühlung zu sorgen, muss ich im Anbauraum das Fenster geöffnet lassen. Bei dem schwülen Wetter steigt die Feuchtigkeit durch die Zuluft bis auf 70%. Kann mir jemand einen guten Luftentfeuchter empfehlen? Oder gute "Lifehacks"? THX

I had the very same issue with as you. But if your temps are staying below 30c you are really OK. As the air temp doesn't always translate into canopy temp, especially if you have a fan moving around and blowing over your canopy. But, either way, a good dehumidifier you can't go wrong with cause once you have watering and your girls dialed in the RH your plants put out from leaf transpiration that alone will put out a good amount of moisture. I got a 20L meaco at its height it uses 280watts but that's when it's working full steam. The hotter the conditions and that play a big role and how well your dehumidifier works. The meaco 20L A energy rated has also won the which award and many others its a really great dehumidifier. It has timers, RH timers, once it reaches 3% less then what you have it set at it turns off and checks every 30mins and turns back on to bring your RH back down to 3% less then what you had it set at. They also have the 12L. I wouldn't waste my money on silly 1-5L you need one with a compressor in it. The noise is a little sound but hey. Once it reaches what you have it set at you have 30mins to get asleep lol. There really is no hacks or any tricks you can apply. Yes, smart watering and other little things will have a small impact but you do need a dehumidifier if you wanna dial in your grow. Now, there is many of ppl who grow just fine bud in very hot humid countries outdoors, how do they do it? Well, simple really, they have all the air flow you'll ever need. So it is possibly to grow in high RH not recommended as too high a RH can trick your plant into feeling full and it'll stop drawing up fluids from the soil and then you get defs and don't know y. But if your temp is under 28-30c u really wouldn't worry about it too much now. But as your grows get bigger and the more she drinks the more moisture they'll put out. Feel free to DM regarding the Meaco dehumidifiers. It's made just for RH Good luck.

Vielen Dank für die Rückmeldungen.👍 In meiner Situation führt kein Weg an einem Luftentfeuchter vorbei.😐 Dank der Empfehlungen von @gottagrowsometime 😊 habe ich mich tatsächlich für einen Entfeuchter der Marke Meaco entschieden. Den MeacoDry ABC 10L für 160€ Da die Temperaturen die 30°C 😱 nicht überschreiten, sondern nur ankratzen und es bei uns auch selten wärmer wird, ist eine Klimaanlage nicht nötig, denke ich. Sobald der Entfeuchter da ist, berichte ich wie effektiv er ist. Danke vielmals😘

They are a little expensive. You'll pay £200+ if you shop around. Don't waste your time on getting a low 60watt or low watt one. Needs a compressor. You'll pay money for a good 1 but I can say with confidence that meaco is a good 1 and uses low watts which if you have to run it 12hrs a day it does add up so keep it's energy use in mind. Happy growing.

i can say there are no hacks for battling high rh. no easy way outs no do-it-yourself solutions. after reading your situation feels like you can use an air-con actually rather than a dehum. dehums will not be able to get that humidity down unless you close that window and because of the heat its obvious you cant and on top of that dehumidifier will add more heat to the area. check out portable air conditioners or small split wall units. airconditioners also remove moisture from the air so it’ll act as a dehumifier as well. so you may or may not need another separate dehumidifer unit after a properly sized air conditoner is set up but i think an ac is what you want first. i run a 55l dehumidifier and a 12000btu air-con in my grow area and they use 2x the amount of electricity as my lights. thats just how it is and how it works if you’re not blessed with exactly right weather conditions for cannabis.
