You are going to love that AC Infinity controller, I have one also, in my 4x4.

One thing that I didn't consider was the humidity levels with lights off. It was a little high this morning so I set a trigger to ramp up the exhaust when it hits 50% during lights out. I'm already glad that I have it! LOL

It's great being able to make adjustments with the lights off.

I found an old vaporizer that I had in the closet for like 20 years and decided to give it a go. Thank you @InTheShed for the tip. It's just enough to keep the humidity at 60% or so. But Today I raised the PAR level to about 718 μmols so we will see if it can keep up. Running light levels this high is not easy because there is always a give and take as far as humidity levels go, and I'm not even up the the recommended 800 yet. As far as the plant goes, she seems to be handling it so far. I had a little water left over in the watering jug so I poured it over the plant although I don't think it needed it. So far so good.

Adds a nice splash of color as well.

The steam vaporizer isn't working unfortunately. It is raising the temps too high and inspite of the advice of humidifying the space yada yada I found that putting my big ass vornado in the tent is doing the trick for now.

Well I finally did it. I hit 803 μmols without anything dying, breaking or collapsing. So far so good.
​

I wonder what would happen if I kept pushing to PAR 1000?​

Thanks for that RETRIX. I was expecting a wider variation in efficiency numbers!

I have learned a lot from Shane over at MIGRO. I also like that he actually responds when you ask him a question.

Nothing to note other than I filled up the tank on the humidifier? This controller is working so well that I don't have to worry about anything anymore.​

Increased output to 930 μmols. Gave plant 1/2 Gallon of water.​

Good luck hopefully it all works out

Thank you Absorber.

I think the plant grew 2 inches just since yesterday. The humidity sensor was above the canopy. Today it was under the top leaves. Also she doesn't seem to care about the PAR being over 900. I was joking but maybe I should let it inch up to 1000.​

​

 

[InTheShed]

The top leaves will answer that question for you!

Just about 1000 PAR and she seems to be loving it.
Pretty nice looking plant if you ask me.

We are now over 1000 PAR with 1121 μmols and the plant is showing no signs of stress so I'm going to let her keep going.
Did a light top dress and added more soil to pot.
I also gave her about 1/2 gallon of water.
