humidity and temp. in grow room

[MARY-JANE]

:hairpull: ok now, i have a grow cabnet that i built. got everything how it should be but i need to know what is the right humidity for my grow box? and is my 80f temp to hot?:holysheep:

80 isn't too bad. I have mine running between 71-73, humidity should be around 30-40.

 

[MARY-JANE]

good info. so between 50-60 is too high for my humidity. and if so how do i bring it down.

 

[Hydro]

hm...yeah thats kind of high, i would say a small humidifier and see if that lowers it.

 

[MARY-JANE]

i have one but it's like high all the time so what can i do to get it to drop some.?

I think 50-60% humidity is fine for veg. During flower you will want to lower it to about 15-20%. You should be fine for now though. Get a dehumidifier. That will help. Temps are fine as long as they don't go any higher. Take care and be safe.

Yes, keep a higher humidity during veg period. This will help produce a higher percentage of females.

OK SO WHEN IN FLOWERING I SHOULD KEEP MY HUMIDITY DOWN? WHY SHOULD IT BE SO LOW DOING FLOWERING

Dry air helps in the production of Resins or THC in the plant the dryer the air the more they can. IMO when it comes to temps and humidity, (veg) up to 75% (flower) no more than 50%, humidity will go up at night, so if your flowering i recommend an exhaust fan to help keep it dryer.

High humidity flowering plants can get bud mold.
Low humidity can produce more trichs and help stave off bud mold.

[MARY-JANE]

i just brought a new Revion oscillating tower fan. it also have air and negative Ions. should i run this fan on a night when the plants are sleeping at night to make the humidity drop 15-20 at night? Or should i have the fan on 24hrs a day?
