Grow Area
I have converted a cupboard (40x78x145) - lined with foil for reflection..
Lighting
Currently have 5 x cfls all 100w ( 6400 for veg) - all made into a lampshade so they get sides and top... ( Larger pots are growing spirals)..
Ventilation
I was going to buy a 6 inch from hydro shop but went to hardware store first before them and found a shower roof fan reduced from $250 to $20.. so since they are both 6 inches in size, and the hydro one was $115 - i got the hardware store one and it works very well...
Medium
Canna Terra with perlite...
Temps
My high low temps are between 24 - 29 degrees Celsius...
Growth
my plants are green, growing, looking normal except for one plant which leaves have a bend on the center area.. will attach pic for that leaf ( the one plant has 4 leaves like it but it is still growing) These plants suffered a huge set back ( pic attached ) so they have come back really well in a couple of weeks...
Nutes
whilst little they were given 1 dose of root accelerator then now on BIO Vega 3 times a week...
Ok now the problem - all was great til today.. My humidity has dropped badly - was running between 50 - 75% now its running 22 - 38% ... i have added an electric oil burner with just water in it to increase moisture without adding more temp but its only come up by 10%... they of course as you can see in veg stage...
whats happened to drop it so badly and how else can i increase it?? ( have tried misting them and soil to no major increase)... In the lighting pic you can see the oil burner as well..
I am in australia...( not that i think makes a difference but incase you dont know names of products and if you can explain your names if you suggest any as we might not have it down here)
I appreciate any help you can give me...
