      Cold weather is killing my grow. Still able to keep temps in the 60’s at I the lowest end. This morning at 73 but it’s not warming up any time soon. Low humidity killing me too. No way for me to increase unless I turn the fan off and then I get condensation inside grow tent. Much more of a battle than I expected. 5 or 6 more weeks to harvest. Hope it holds out. 🤞

        Sheik, why would you want to increase humidity during flowering? You can always just hang a wet towel...

        alltatup from what I’ve read I should be 40% in early flower? The thing is with the low humidity the plant reall drinks quickly. Even following GWE GH nute schedule I get a hint of nutrient burn. I think I’ll welcome the low RH in mid and late bloom. Just need everything to go right here on.

          It' so cold in this old farm house up here in the north east even with the heat cranked she can only muster 62 deg. My grow tent with the fans on low and the lights on 24 7 She is at 68. But my plants are loving it. I on the other hand am not. I have never noticed a problem with the low rh and I think this is because of the dwc. But yea it's colder than a well diggers ass out there.
          It's 4:19 u got a minute?

          with the humidity staying around 25-30% RH
          I keep two soaking wet towels in there plus spray the walls of the tent with water just to try and raise huniduty. Have a humidifier but it doesn't do a damn.

            I'm surprised that the humidifier inside the tent doesn't raise the humidity.

                It's so cold outside, had to drain coolant out of my truck, to add a jug of straight Annie freeze. Took 8 miles of driving to get temp up.

                I know a few people that go up there hunting every year, they harvest humongous size whitetail bucks most every year, alot larger than our large whitetail we have here in our state.

                Yeah, we hunt for the meat too, it's just our bucks horns don't get as large as your deer do, must be that they have to eat much more up there in that cold weather.
