My tap warer is 100ppm and like 7.5ph my watwr has.chloramines whivh will kill microbes. I bubble water and make aact's. In order to rem9ve or neutralize chloramines i put a lil.compost/ewc and mollasees and let it bubble fprn24 hrs before i actually brew with it. Go read the rols no till thread in organov section. The firzt few pages arenthe best with good info scattered thrp7ghout but its 200+ pages. It gives teas brews etc

@anohaze @Flash63 I've thought about coco growing but I'm fascinated with the whole microbe city in the roots idea. It's like reverse osmosis Jones marijuana edition!

I bought a small personal dehumidifier once on Amazon and it did not work for shit. I have a big one in my room now and works awesome. I empty it every other day or so, no biggee.

@Squidbilly posted this chart somewhere here and it now is pinned up in my grow room. At least until about the 3rd week of flower you can probably help your growth by keeping things in the green. After that, yeah strive for 40, hope for 50, worry at 60, and freak at 70.
*cannot seem to post pic of chart, will try again later
*still cannot... Here is the link to the thead, some good stuff there

Yeah see if I were to freak out at 70 I think I'd be having a hernia right about now because my r/h is about 80%

@Squidbilly
And @GrowinDad, did it just not do a single difference or was it just ineffective for what you needed it for, because I'm looking at getting like, a simple 4 liter unit

Here in the high altitude of Colorado I struggle with keeping humidity high enough. If I run a humidifier 24/7 in my veg room I can get humidity as high as 70% but in my flowering room I'm lucky to see 25%. Mostly stays at 22% during lights out, 16% when lights are on...

I've read an article on GrowWeedEasy.com about the importance of humidity in the grow room.....maybe some suggestions on an appropriate unit for the size of my room or alternative options?

I think the eva-dry mini dehumidifier would work well in that space.
