Humidity in a small tent

TioRandystarted grow question 7 months ago

How to preserve optimal humidity in a small tent? My target humidity is 70 as I am germinating. My tent is 60*60*160. The smallest vent is on the picture I have attached (310 m3/h, 180PA). I have a Xiaomi Humidifier running on the maximum 24h, but still no help

Setup. Ventilation

Please small clear cups over them. If you can buy a humidity dome to cover all, then great. If not buy cups. Make sure cups have small breather holes poked in them. This allows gas exchange and gives them fresh co2 to breathe while retaining humidity. Also mist the cups, mist the sides only. Not the top. If you mist the top, droplets could pool and drop on your seedling thus causing light magnification on the baby's leaves and hurting stunning or even killing it. Regarding the entire tent, you need a bigger humidifier, AC Infinity has 2 different ones the smaller one works for my 4x4 tent. Its also automatically controlled by the 69 controller. If Temps are correct then you don't need alot of exhaust right now, stop exhausting the tent and humidity will rise on its own. If Temps are to high then you need to exhaust, thus needing a bigger humidifier or a dome to cover all plants, or clear cups with holes for each individual plant. Please consider me as the answer so I have a chance to win grower of the month contest. Good luck!

You are good with 45-55 rh but like they said, for the first week or two Cola bottles, if you have 2L ones you are safe for 2 weeks. Maybe a small fan to place on the humidity and directed downwards to blow the steam onto the plants.

Cut a 2-liter bottle, soak the cut piece in water, and place it on top of the plant to create humidity inside

Put a little dome over her for now until she gets bigger but as far raising humidity...wer towels, a bigger humidifier maybe? I can't see why you're not hitting your target...maybe try closing some tent flaps. Hope this helps

As long as your humidity is above 30 you are fine. And below 70. I don't go beyond either end of that scale. Only problems will occur related to humidity.

Hey buddy, i wouldnt worry much ablut humidity in seedling stage, if you spray it once or twice with water its good enough imo. Its always good when your exhaust pipe goes outside so it doesnt get too moist. Honestly if its not moist enough, i took a towel, took it and made it wet & hanged it in the room & maybe a spray of water here and there. A dehumidifier (especially in fall times) was more crucial to me. But even then you can turn on the heater

if humidifier is not strong enough for volume of that space -- not just tent but also any containing room -- then it simply won't work. can't sill such things to do what you want. either it has the capability or it does not. get a dome... or don't worry too much about it. while it's 'more optimal' to have the right temp/rh (whatever it happens to be), as long as teh enviornment isn't extreme, you'll be fine. i've never worried about it. just recently tried a dome. kept humidity ~70% or so the first 24 hours after sprout... might be abit more consistent accross many seedlings, but not some huge jump in growth rate or anything compared to before. seems like consistency across all the seedlings is biggest improvement from it.
