Hey all,
I am about a week into my next grow and I have concerns with low humidity. I am sitting at 15% as I type this. I was not too concerned with it when the other girls were flowering but it sure seems awful low. I have been getting calls for work with machines having issues from low humidity. It is super dry up here in the winter. I had a humdifier in veg for my last grow and it worked well. I had bugd almost the whole first grow. I got rid of the humidifier at flower time. I then used neem oil to kill the bugs. 5 weeks later it started getting really dry so I threw the humidifier back in and it had been sitting fo a month cleaned and dry. Low and behold the very next day there is a couple bugs in the room. I looked in the humidfier and there was one dead one floating and one climbing on the wick filter. So I ditched that sucker and luckily they did not setup shop in the room.
Do you all think that there is much to worry about or could you give me an idea for something I can do to get the humidity up. Maybe a more closed system humidifier. This one was very exposed to water just sitting there. That stupid half moist all the time filter is a magnet for bugs. Thanks for any help.
