Cool thanks! My humidity has been 29% with temp around 26degrees celcius! so i put 2 small wet towels and a bucket of water aswell as my humidifier on full and its still only 34%! I have turned my extraction fan on low so not sucking out too much !! What else could i do ???

Maybe a bucket of water with an air stone,,, I have RH in the other direction,,,

Yea i just put a bucket of water in actually ! Ok ill look into an airstone then! Never heard of it ! Cheers

About any pet shop should have them, and an air pump

Ok thanks! Have you tried using one?

I have used an airstone in a bucket-

I have found low humidity slows growth initially- but the plant catches up once roots are developed, so I don't bother anymore.

Below grow was in low humidity:
See: https://forum.growweedeasy.com/foru...s-grow-fastbuds-girl-scout-cookies-autoflower

"Low humidity did not seem to effect the overall grow-may have changed/delayed the usual growth pattern.
I suspect the increased transpiration from low humidity helped provide "catch-up" once the root system fully developed."

Cool thanks for that! Good to know

Are you in a tent? If so you need to raise the humidity of the room the tent is in. Also, rh should rise as your plants get bigger. VPD can really help get you zeroed in with healthy plants but she will still grow and produce outside that range, but you will be wondering "yeah, but what if". That 29% rh will come in handy the last couple weeks of flower. Good luck!

I have had a real hard time getting the RH up in the winter/dry months. (That's what she said)

Great for the $44.28 I spent on it: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07D9BGKQW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

6L tank and on low settings one full tank last 2-3 days, on the highest setting it can move the needle on the RH (I have it on my timer). Have really good air circulation, IMO and it makes a difference. Shedding heat is an important part of the equations. If you run hot humidity drops in my experience.

That said, once the girls are ready for flower they raise RH themselves. And we get the opposite problem

Ok thanks for that
