High Humidity

[MagicMike66]

Hey folks, I’m having real issues trying to control rh in my grow tent. My plants are in 4th week of flower and looking great however, RH is very high (around 70% or more). The walls in the tent get sitting water on them after I feed them that I’ve got to wipe off. I’m scared of developing bud rot. I’ve added in a dehumidifier (albeit a fairly cheap one) but hasn’t really made a difference. Has anyone had similar issues that you managed to fix or have any advice on how to lower?

Hi MagicMike66, I had exactly the same problem as you. I also bought a cheap dehumidifier which did nothing. I then bought an Inventor Fresh 12L Portable Dehumidifier which did the trick in my small tent. Good Luck

Thanks man, I’m away to check it out.

I took your advice and got one of these. Only been 2 days but it’s working wonders already! Thanks

Couple of questions.
What are the environmental conditions in the room where the tent is located and how are you ventilating the tent?

4x4 grow tent. Fox extraction with filter. 600w HPS. Inside the tent I also need a heater as it’s still chilly here. Couple of fans for circulation.
