Happy Friday Folks :peace:

Q. My RH is at 60%.
But I see no moisture on plants or equipment what so ever?
Q. Am I missing something?
I have used two different sensors and similar results. So I guess the digital metres are not faulty.

Thank You :joint::dunce:

You really shouldn't see any moisture on you plants until the Humidity reaches 75 % or higher and then shouldn't see that much. Moisture will form on your Floors first look there.
Sixty should be okay it's a bit high but should be alright I like mine around 50 in flower chamber and 60 in the little ones room.
So in all you should be OKAY.....


Good Luck. Keep on Growing

If you can't lower your rh a tad, consider spraying them down once a week with diluted h2o2 to kill any mold spores. Good luck, have fun! :bigjoint:

You not going to see moisture on the plants or equipment. Probably the only time with it on plants would be when one leaf is touching/laying on top of another and its transpiring alot and no air movement. You start to have problems / pm or something, at about 70% and it stays there for awhile. 60% is ok for veg could be lower, 50-55% and 45-50% is ok for flower imo.

Thank you for the good tip.
I shall def get some this weekend.
Nice one dude :eyesmoke:
Although that might work to kill spores if you have them a silica spray would work to and a better way to go is to actually prevent them from attaching on to the plant is for them to be healthy and loaded with calcium. You could benefit going onto the youtube and watching the harley smith videos.

Probably dont need it, are you in a sealed room if not then get a few for the whole world, 60 isnt that high and good air movement would help more.

Yes, in a sealed unit/tent. And I agree. 60° is okay ish. But remember... I'm a newbie with little knowledge.

60 is fine with air movement, i dont mind even higher up to where you are at stagewise. Reason for low rh is molds and helping quality of ripening, not an issue at begining to middle of flower... i have controls now and step it down from wherever rh is at midflower down to desert arid for final week, but if you have air movement you should be fine. Remember these girls been getting folks high for eons before modern indoor growing precision.

How big of area? Could get a dehuey off craigslist or if its tiny several dollar store damp rids, once worn out dump em and reload em, all it is is calcium cloride, if you live in area that gets snow thats the more expensive ice melt stuff, $8 bag refills a shit ton of the little damprid units

If you were in a sealed room you would have A/C and CO2. A tent with a zipper door isnt a sealed room.

I looked at those moisture absorbers they wont due shit and are a waste of money. A dehumidifier is what you want if you need to go that route.

What size tent cuz bernie is right if its any good size area the damprids are a knife at a gunfight but a 2x2x4 tent or something real small they can help...

My tent is small. 1.4m x 1.4m. And I will go buy a dehumidifier. Thank you.

Its ok for DAYTIME, or LIGHTS ON, but when those lights go out, you should be dropping it to 40-45%. Humidity and Temp work in conjunction with light andor spectrum to get photosynthesis rolling along. At night, no photosynthesis takes place, and mold likes darkness and humidity. So, if you possibly can, get that humidity down at night.

Inkbird sells a great monitor super cheap that will turn off and on to a certain humidity or temp for a heater.

Daytime, 65% isnt even bad, but temp should be 80+ F.. ( follow VPD Chart, and when you see your leafs Pray, write those numbers down, and that is your target ratio for temp/humidity.

another great, cheap tool to have is a Temp/Humidity/ DEWPOINT alert. the Zon has them for like $11

It has a "Mold Alert" that takes into effect the temp?humidity ratio, and the most likelyhood a great environment for mold to grow.

The Zon also has a decent dehumidifier for $80, up too 1.5 pints a day, and only uses like 60watts, which is awesome. Even if you got 2, for using 120 watts vs, the 250+watts the bigger ones use,..
