Let me start by talking about the success of @Scientific's oven-dried rice suggestion. :thanks:
HOLY MOLY! Toss out your silicone beads and your store-bought desiccants. If you need fast and extreme dehumidifying, GO WITH RICE!
The basic info is that rice took the RH in the jar from 75% to...
I have a 4 x 4 tent and am just starting my first grow. I anticipate the humidity being higher than what it is supposed to be. Does anybody have any recommendations for a dehumidifier that is cost-effective?
While my plant was in veg, humidity of 65-80% wasn't a big deal, but now that I've switched to 12/12, it concerns me. The room is generally around 55%, but the grow tent itself is currently registering 85%!
Thinking my sensor was fubar, I put a second meter in the tent. Both meters register the...
Beginning to have high humidity issues during the night, sometimes getting as high as 70%. I'm in a 10x10x6.5ft tent with 9 315 cmh's, 24000 btu mini split, and a 70 pint dehumidifier built on a shelf with a condensate pump. The dehumidifier can't seem to keep up so, I'm leaning towards a quest...
Before I got a dehumidifier here were my stats:
Ambient temperature: 70-85F
Tent temperature: 70-85F
Humidity: 70-99%
So I got a dehumidifier and hooked up the exhaust to the intake of tent, so now the humility is as lowe as I want (45%) but it's SUPER warm. My temperature monitor said...
I am currently in the 3rd week of 12/12 and my plants are in a separate room which I close off during their dark time, and I control the environment with a small a/c unit and a dehumidifier. During their light time I open the doors to the rest of the house and turn off the small a/c and...
I wanted to share my 5x5 tent setup to help others solve enviromental problems. Obviously everyones houses are different. I didn't like how my demidifier was heating up my tent being inside it. I was searching around and saw a diagram using a cardboard box for the dehumidifier outside the tent...
Hello fellow growers,
In an attempt to lower humidity during vent off/CO2 spraying I built this inline dehumidifier which got coupled with another smaller inline vent I had lying around, circulating the air in the tent.
The design is pretty straight forward, I used a 6Amp peltier element with...
I have one and seeing my crop is only a few weeks off Is it worth when I have cropped my babies to put the dehumidifier in the tent to help them dry?.
Or is this a bad idea?.

:420: Just finished my new dwcr system using 19 gal tub's. Each tub will have its own air pump and I made a chiller out of a dehumidifier that will sit in the res. There is also a pond pump that will feed from my res to my grow tub and back through the PVC pipe. I like to get some more idea's of...
Hello all... I've got a 4'x4'x79" tent with 2 plants, each in an independant 5 gallon DWC setup.
I live in an area that's pretty humid. I'm about to move to flowering and the guy at the hydro store said that in my area a dehumidifier is a must... I'm digging around online, but I'm not sure...
Any help would be appreciated. I converted a dehumidifier into a water chiller for my rez. Works perfect. It chills way beyond the plants needs. My problem: can't seem to find the sweet spot in the humidity dial to get to my desired temp. Ive mico adjusted it to the point i can't adjust it...
So I'm relatively new to cropping and I need some advice. I have a 120x120x200 budbox that is using 2 600W HPS, growing 12 plants using a 12 plant IWS system. The timer is on a 4 hour intervial, feeding 6 times in a 24 hour space.
Now I know about the Ph, Nutrients, Optimum temps/humidity...
Howzit fellow growers,
Ok, so I'm just about to tackle my next grow, but the new grow location has changed and I'm having humidity issues. The new grow is taking place in a 4x8x7.5 grow tent (240 cu.ft.) in a garage.
My problem is that I can't seem to get the RH below 70%...even with adequate...
