How to reduce humidity in my grow space?
Faegrowsstarted grow question a year ago
I'm just an amateur and am growing in my closet as I have very limited space. It's a small space in which I can't cut holes or openings. I use a small fan and a air purifier. Should I get more fans? Does a carbon filter or inline duct help if it can't exit out of the closet?

I would simply open the closet door and keep the fan and dehumidifier going... I'd prefer loss of light to risking bud rot which you're doing if the humidity is really high.
Good luck!

An extraction fan is the only option to reduce heat imo. Plus the benefits of fresh air for the plants will be rewarded. I've done closet grows, it's possible to make a exhaust system inside one. Cheap enough fan and filter will help you loads mate.

Air exchange/replacement is the only effective way to reduce humidity.
Recirculating the same air in a closed closet, no matter how much, will not remove humidity effectively, you need to get fresh air in there.

either have to exhust to a different area that won't comingle or get a dehumidifier.
circulation fans will even it out throughout volume of space, but won't reduce it.
leave small space open during lights on.. if an autoflower leave it open all the time. could grow only during certain seasons to avoid it. If ambient RH is high and your plant is transpiring as it should, it'll always be ab it higher than ambient RH%. A furnace being on dries out the air. AC too. but, you need a dehumidifier for any major issue.

How crucial is an exhaust fan and a carbon filter?I cant find anything in my country as a kit, but would buying them piece by piece work?
Example something like in the photo connected to an air duct and then to a carbon filter?
Or if the exhaust fan is not crucial? how can i get rid of the smell in a cheaper way?

I am facing a temperature problem again....My tent reaches 84.2F, which is too hot in my opinion. But my humidity is perfect. On the other hand, if I activate the ventilation, the temperature of the tent reaches 76F, which is perfect, but the humidity level drops dramatically to 35%.

Peltier dehumidifier @300ml per day adequate for 3x3x6 tent? Alternatively, a conventional dehumidifier outside the tent?Peltier thermoelectric dehumidifiers extract 300ml of water per day. Weak compared to compresser units, small and use less energy. Is it enough?
Would a conventional dehumidifier set outside of the tent near the intake be effective, or does it need to be inside the tent to worka year ago

Risk of bud rot with these conditions?My tent keeps bouncing between 55-65% throughout the day during mid-late flower stage. Staying between 24-26 C. I have two fans moving air in the tent and the plants are we defoliated. An in-line fan is pulling air out. How much at risk am I for bud rot? Thanks!
