So, u don't need a mister. Waste of money but tat money towards a dehumidifier which will be needed much more, as ur crop expands it will give off vapour (LVPD comes in) and ur tent/room will be like the amazon. If ur in a tent. You can easily control RH with a wet towel hanging from the bar or using your exhaust fan on a timer. 5on-15off or whatever holds the highest RH for you. Once you are above 65-75 for veg bring it down in pre flower to 60 if u can and getting it down to as low as 35 in fat/ripening..I don't do this, I can but it cost way too much money. And for the lil extra resin and benefits don't outweigh the cost of running my 300w dehumidifier. So, I barely ever run it unless I have to. Ppl in thr likes of cali grow in high RH they have great ventilation. You just gotta rep tat indoors. So getting rh up is easy. Keeping it down will be ur issue when u get to it. But if its high just super ventilation and fans blowing in/over/thru ur canopy.

Hey there. So, VPD is very advanced and as a new grower. Really you need to focus more on the 101s / DLI feeding/ lots and lots others. VPD is a combination of a lot of dif things. Heat, pressure and so on. So, learning the 101s and what's more important for new growers will then enable you to get a hang/understand VPD better. As you have an even more important thing than vpd & tats LVPD LeafVapour
