ok i'm in week 3 of flowering this is my first grow i got 2 ny diesel, 2 jack herrer, and 3 super lemon haze :) . ok to the point i'm having real humidity and heat problems i'm able to controle the heat situation but the humidity is becoming a real ball ache i bought a dehumidifier but its not very good tbh lol. i'm doing my best to keep my girls in the best conditions i can, i got fans blowing over the them i'm hopeing this will keep a steady air flow so it stops mould heres wot they look like now. has the humidity and heat stunted them ?

well 62 isnt all that bad..and i thought you said you had control of the temps 91 is not control..lowering that temp will lower the humidty..window a/c usit will lower temps and also dehumidify the room..or more ventalation will work too..to help keep that temp down..what set up do you have..

Your plants look incredible!!! If you started counting flower time from the day you switched to 12/12 then yes they seem tiny. But if you started counting your flowering weeks from the day you noticed the first set of preflowers then your buds look awsome and fat at this point. I start counting flowering weeks when the preflowers show. When my pre flowers are present then that is day 1 of flower and then 8-9 weeks from that day they are done. Hope this helps

They don't looke stunted, but ia agree with qickee 91.9 temp is certainly not under control. If you can get that bitch down below 80, you'll be in the game then.

Also, your plants seem to like the temps and humidity you are running now but later on into flowering they may not like it that warm and humid. The larger the buds get and the further along into flowering you get they get a higher chance of mold or bud rot taking over some of those girls. WHen they flower they need lower humidity and slightly lower temps to avoid moisture build up in the buds. The grow area needs to be drier in flwoer than in veg. Luck

if you cant control the humidty and it stays higher..just blow a couple more fans on high right on them

When the temperature drops, the humidity rises. Higher temps can hold more moisture in the air.

That being said, you should still lower temps because 91 is verging on being detrimental. Keep those fans switched on and vent as much air as you can - have you got fresh air coming in or is the air just circulating around the room?

Your humidity problem will go away if you can vent fresh air in, or more than you already are, if you are.

Air that is constantly circulating around the room with no ventilation will gather moisture from the plants.

Yeah I've rabbled on a bit, but I hope it was useful :p

Thanks for the replies everyone, firstly these girls are in their 3rd week of flowering (12/12 cycle started 3 weeks ago), secondly we can get the temps down to approx 70 but then the humidity rises to 90% :sad:. Also the humidity outside the growroom is quite high anyway so ventilation |(intake) seems pointless (for Co2 I have the venting flaps around the tent open is this sufficient??!?)

I have managed to get the humidity down to 60% by using some dehumidifier and the temps are stablising at around 80 but weve found that since theyve been around that sincew germination theyve adapted to it well.

Think il start a journal today as well to see how things go.

Make sure your temp/humidity reading is coming from the canopy level and not mounted on the wall near the light.
