Lower RH or CO2 Hey what would the experienced growers prefer CO2 @1000ppm or reduce the RH from 62% to 55% (increase VPD from 1.2 to 1.3) during the last 3 weeks of flowering ? Good ventilation in the tent

If mold and humidity are concerns, lowering RH from 62% to 55% can mitigate risks and optimize plant health, especially during late flowering. Increasing CO2 to 1000ppm can potentially enhance growth and yield, but its effectiveness depends on factors like light, nutrients, and strain genetics. Ultimately, choose based on your specific growing conditions and goals, considering factors like strain tolerance and available resources.

Constant replenishment of air provides as much co2 as is needed. Co2 is only useful once all 9 growth rules have been met and you plan to push past limits. Cellular respiration is what happens at night. Photosynthesis happens during day. The plant pumps co2 back Into the tent mostly at night as a byproduct. Rh again is another metric that needs updating on this site, Rh daytime can differ greatly from night, with the temp drops at night the air will hold less moisture, the plant Luke's to eject moisture also as a byproduct at night. So if you only measure 55 rh daytime it's possible this is rising to 70+ overnight. Moisture levels above 70rh% and above 77 farenheight are optimal breeding grounds for bacteria so make sure your air game is on point. When your plant's wake up in the Morning co2 levels will be high and she will slowly eat the co2 through the day.

Lower RH during flowering. Like 40 percent is ideal for heavy flowering. It helps keep bud from getting any RH related issues.
