Day49 of flower feeding just reverse osmosis ph water, hunny molasses and bud hardener. Worried about my humidity running in the 70s at night. I ordered a dehumidifier tho it won't be here till a week or two. I hung 1 of thows damprid moisture absorber but i know i need more. Here in the 808 state we are surrounded by water so humidity is always high. During the day its in the 50% range so its good. Any quick fixes any1 can help me with instill I get my dehumidifier would be appreciated. Here's a couple pictures.

Day 55 of flower and 1st day of flushing. Trichomes are at about 10% Amber. Flushing with plain water PHed and at about 10ppm.
I've had humidity issues aswell, dehumidifier defiantly good, but other things you can do:
Keep air moving, lower you fan down or add a second fan lower down so it flows through the plant
If you have a intake and exhaust fan they help, if not get one for next time
You can but dehumidifier bags at most DIY stores, dot them around your tent. I have hanging wardrobe ones and draw ones around the bottom of the tent along with my mini electric dehumidifier
My humidity max is 45% on a bad day with these. On a good day it's 30%.
Lower the better in late stages of flower
Keep your temps stables as pos to avoid mould.
Air flow defiantly helps!

These are the dehumidifier bags I have
And this is how I've setup my fans: one blowing on top and one through the plants. Along with a intake and exhaust fan.
Your grow looks great by the way, well done!

I have a couple of those hanging bags in my tent but I don think it's bringing the humidity down tho there is alot of water in the bag like yours. I'm going to need the dehumidifier. I have a bunch of fans moving alot of air. I also have intake bringing air from outside and a duct fan and filter ducting hot air out. Thanks for your feed back. I'll let you know what kind of humidity I get with the dehumidifier. Hopefully I can get everything under control b4 my second grow starts to bud...

Here is some shots of my Tent setup. im try to grow 1 plant at a time to learn. i do have a clone to the left of her mother. i only vegged her for about 4 weeks from rooting and switched her to flower. im also growing some tomatoes, lettuce, Basel. growing the tomatoes and romaine lettuce in a small deep water culture witch is booming! i have a couple of the hanging moister bags in there and a co2 bag in there to. but my humidity is just to high here in the 808 state were surrounded by water so its hard to get low humidity with out a dehumidifier. so hope it shows up soon.. thanks for all the positive comments. i just started a couple seeds midnight snow and Blackberry so ill be starting a new thread for that grow.. let me know if you have any pointers for my next grow.. Aloha!

Hey Wingman -- I just popped over from the link you put at Herbshuttles' grow. That's a nice little setup, very much like the one that I'm starting to put together now, and it looks like you're getting good results.
If I may offer one thought, you could probably move those big CFLs a lot closer. Because they don't make much heat, you can put them just inches away from the plant as long as it doesn't get the plant too warm ("back of the hand" test). That will give you a lot more light intensity, which your flowering plants will love. Just my .02 FWIW.
Anyway, I'll be following along with interest. Good looking plant! thumb:

Thanks for the comment and tip. Yah I had it very close in my veg stage and I did the hand heat test lol. I've gone away from using the cfls in my tent and only running the Less. I'm using my CAL bulbs just for my seedlings and small clones. I'm surprised on how my mars hydro 96 is flowering . I literally have my light4 to 6" over my canopy. Thanks for stopping by.

Day 60 she's been flushing for about 2 weeks with just reverse osmosis PHed and ppm about 50. Put her in the dark for another day or so before I chop her. Trichomes are cloudy and about 10% Amber. She smells real pungent like diesel. Colas are fat and dense. I've learned alot theses last 4 and a half months.

Ok well here is the last update or post for this grow. I dried her in a closet for 6 days at about 45% humidity and around 72deg to 80deg. Did a 2nd dry trim and weighed in at 2.3oz or 66grams. Filled 3 mason jars with humidifier packs in each. Ill cure for 2 to 3 weeks. I smoked a small nug and was happy with the taste and heavy body high. Happy with the results on my 1st grow. Hope I won't disappoint you in my next upcoming grows..
