re: First Timer - Soil - 600W LED - White Widow & Candy Cane Autos - 2x4x7 Tent
First off Welcome and thanks for pulling up a chair!
I do have one in the tent, along with little container of water and paper towel hanging out to help out too (if humidifier goes dry when I'm not around). I was thinking beyond 60 probably wasn't good... I can get it there constantly if want but I have to run the humidifier on high, and she'll guzzle a gallon+ every 12 or 18hours (it doesn't have a RH sensor itself, at least I don't think it does it was cheap 35$ one.). I'm using distilled water with the humidifier to try and prevent any chlorine or other particles\spotting or calcium build up inside the machine (clean it less often).
So far when I keep it around low end of "medium" it stays in the 45-55 range (with highs\lows 40-62) and I can go 24hr (maybe a little more) with out having to fill the tank. I think i may bump it up to middle of medium though and see how things go.
Then again I'm looking to switch lights from 24/0 to 20/4 tomorrow so I have a feeling at present settings humidity will go up when the lights are out, at least for 4-5 hours. Decisions decisions.
I'll sit in with this one. We can learn together lol. I've been keeping my humidity around 65-70ish. Do you have a humidifier in the tent?
