They suck the moisture out of the soil and are a very poor choice for growing cannabis.

Pros easy to get nice and weighty to stand up cons can be pricey in bigger sizes and a pain in the rear on some transplants.

Smart Growbox Monitoring – Searching for the Missing Variables
I made a Python script with my Govee H5075 that auto-monitors my grow box: temp, humidity, dew point, abs humidity, vapor pressure, VPD, air density, comfort & heat stress. (What other parameters can I track with my hygrometer besides these?)

Set auto system for VPD or RH
I have AC Infinity set up. I am wondering whether I should have the humidity triggers set up for VPD or continue with RH triggers. So far I have it triggered when humidity gets a tad low. If I trigger for VPD, I think I will have to constantly check leaf temp. Thoughts?

Do you pump music for your plants🎶🌱 I know there is some science behind this, but have you actually noticed any difference!? I've read they prefer classical or heavy metal 🤘

I'm wondering what is a good stage to start introducing airflow on the plants to increase resilience? I was running this Treveda circulating fan on the outside of my tent through the vent but it didn't seem to be producing much airflow on the inside. Does this look bad inside?

When Should I Consider More CO2?
I flower my plants in a mylar lined box, roughly 2' deep by 4' wide by maybe 6' tall, using two 300W Mars Hydro LEDs. With that amount of light on the plants, would you recommend more light, or CO2 supplementation, and if so how much?
