    Question regards buying Carbon Extractor Fan and or De-Humidifier - First Grow

    Hi Guys
    I trust everyone is well today !
    Question: Does a carbon Extractor fan also remove humidity? Or do I need a dehumidifier for the flowering stage as well?
    Thank you in advance

    Buy a humidifier. The exhaust fan is there to remove stale air and bring in fresh air.

      It depends on where you live. If it’s not very humid in your region then you may be ok with just the exhaust fan. I’m located in the eastern part of the US and the exhaust fan does fine on its own from October to February but from March to September I have to also use a dehumidifier to keep the humidity below 60. Try it out without one first then if needed get a dehumidifier. If your exhaust fan can keep the humidity below 55 on its own you should be ok without one.

        Thanks guys - Extractor Fan should be here in a few days! Will order the dehumidifier after trying just the carbon fan.

          If you’re having issues with heat or humidity you could try opening your tent and even put a small fan inside the tent and have it blowing air out of the tent. Good luck

        Slightly, but most likely not enough. You may see a difference of 1-2% RH, but more than likely you will need a dehumidifier as well.
