What is your biggest question about growing cannabis?

In that same vein, humidity in my house and the outer building never got above 38 and at times hovered near 29%.

Here's a canopy shot a week or two before harvest. Considering all the nutrient burn issues, light burn, wind stress, weeks at a time at temps below 15, I think the low humidity was the least of their worries. They still finished up okay, certainly not perfect, but like I said, lots I could have done better, humidity wasn't even on my mind, and I doubt humidity ever got above 40 for more than a few hours, certainly not for a day.

Been growing all winter in humidity ranges between 22-45. Downstairs with a wood stove in deep cold winter = dry air no matter how you cut it, warm or cold, I'll take my pick of warm. I'll take dry warm air vs humid colder air. Unless humidity is consistently below 25 on a daily basis, I wouldn't be overly concerned with boosting humidity. A lot of the time you end up cooling the air, which is counter productive in the winter when every degree counts.

Hi, I am looking to start growing and I have purchased tents cmh lights day/night fan controller etc. I am wondering what you guys do in winter if you live in a cold climate where the humidity inside is supposed to be below 40%. During winter outside usually stays around 0F or -10F according to this website and a couple others https://www.hvac.com/faq/recommended-humidity-level-home/ the humidity in your home during those temps is supposed to be no higher than 25% for -10F and 30% for 0f. I was wondering what suggestions you guys have? Is it okay to grow at those humidity levels because I have been reading about 40-60%. I don't know if it makes any difference but I have autoflowers.

It's drying good. The flat ceiling white was more watery than the semi-gloss I was using on the shelf, which was good. The thick semi helped fill in and build up, shelf looks good. The closet just needed a few spots brushed in, and a quick 2 coats rolled on. Night and day difference. Yeah I've got a fan on in the closet, and another fan on in the room, things are drying up nicely. I imagine with the wood stove on tonight I'll be plenty fine to set things back up in the morning. Still un-sure if I should paint the floor with a quick coat of white.

I would agree with you: if you can't smell it, it would seem ok to me.

Throw a good fan on it and another to blow it out of the room, 24 hours should be fine, that's basically what I do to mine every year. I clean it up, make any mods I want and repaint it all flat white using a water based paint. Works great

Stuffs not too bad actually. The primer had more spice to it forsure. This shelf is gonna be banging! Might do a green leaf on it somewhere.

Oh I'm well aware of VOC's, I've eaten many over the years. I kinda figured it was a generic answer, when the room stops smelling, plants go back in haha

[Farmall]

I would think.... in today’s “aware” society, the VOC levels in any indoor paints are low enough that a day or so would be fine. I’ve painted indoors for 40 years and slept in that room usually the next night... never had a problem ...YET. in case: VOC = volatile organic compounds

Got a bit of an odd ball question. I'll doing some painting in the room that my closet grow in it. I've already got my wooden shelf sanded down and a fresh coat of semi-gloss white on it. She looks good. I'm gonna re-prime the closet with some mold resistant primer and some fresh flat white, and I've got some trim to do around the room as well. Which brings me to my topic. Did this all out in the shop, because of the sanding and tools.

My question is how long can I expect to keep my plants out of my grow closet? I'll be leaving heat and fans on during and after painting. It's all beauty tone interior latex, nothing fancy, all water friendly stuff. I figure a couple days wouldn't hurt? I've done lots of rooms and stuff before and I figure it takes a couple days for the odor to wear off, I figure if it no longer bugs my nose, it shouldn't bug the plants? I've only got some small vegging plants and seedlings at the moment, nothing flowering.

I’ve learned that lesson when there were 6 using 7 gallon bags. You’re absolutely right and it’s not like anyone is saving a load of money on nutes as that’s maybe 1/2 the cost difference But the convenience of using only water is ...... stressless

[oldjarhead100]

kind soil is fantastic, a bit pricey for me but the stuff is great

[Farmall]

If you need to purchase soil... look at Nature’s Living Soil on Amazon or Kind Soil.com. They are prepared and ready to mix with your coco media....READ the instructions carefully, I found them a tad confusing but I use nothing but these days

adrimal yes you need shade that is way to hot for young plants if those are fabric pots sure you could bury them but need shade for intense sun.
