I'm new to this. Although when I did high stress training to almost every stem I had they came back with a fatt nuckle & the new stem groth was alot bigger. Plus I think it's like a super Highway for tour nutrients. I think it helped get me big buds. I guess it's like when you break a bone. It usually comes back better & stronger when healed. Well, sometimes. My ankle is still fucked. So fuck if I know. Ahahahaha

I have lodged it in about 10" down
Go back in about an hour and see what’s it’s reading.

i think you’ve been getting heat transfer causing incorrect readings.

never place your gauges in direct light with HPS.

Also FYI I use a 6” VK fan on a speed controller in my grow.

summer it runs at almost 100% 24/7. During winter it runs around 25% and I use a 400w.

Nice buds on that pic mate looking healthy, why do you use a 400w can it be just as good as a 600w because so many people say more light the better, even though 400 obviously works for you going off that pic

Because I got busted in 2012 mate and they took away £1500 of kit and I vowed to just do what I needed To do for me. Without going overboard on everything.

Now my entire room cost about £400 to setup. Lol.

Just for growing some of God's given plants
Exactly mate. Best of it is they were grilling me about who deals in the area lol.

i said to them come off it I’ve been self sufficient for 3 years now the fuck do I know lol.

back then I wanted better and better all the time and completely forgot the golden rule.

KISS - Keep It Simple Stoner!

So now I’ve really stripped it back and any alterations I make are to make it easier on me and not because i “need” this or that.

hence the latest drip feed DIY project for feeding twice a day.

Fill my tote up once a week roughly and set it and forget it. AC6B6858-AE1A-436C-B442-0313C0A87230.jpegB4BE5FED-CAC9-46EC-9A5B-40EEFF24C0ED.jpeg11675E7B-1619-4058-8F83-684CD64831EC.jpeg16B6010E-974E-48CB-B38E-E525401C7025.jpeg

The only thing I will be adding shortly is a small propagation shelf with small T5 light etc for starting seeds so that I can get a jump start on starting the next plants before the current are finished etc.

I do that every morning before I leave work but by the time I get home the humidity is back down to 15-20% I can't fit my humidifier in there because there is no space so I am going to try a towel in a big bowl of water like a wick and let the fan blow on it I have been told it can work.
Thanks
Ok here ya go this is Space Monkey under 10% RH and 0 CO2. How does she look? I could posts dozens of successful grows under 10% humidity.

Not far off being ready lol.

relaxed leaves, no cupping, purple tones coming out beautifully and above all else she looks content and not stressed.

Amazing and I'm so far off VPD she should be dead. Actually she is dead I have a reversal of Wedding Cake finishing up now. But I figured if he could see something finishing in his humidity he might relax.

Edited to add: That's not luck, I grow everything under 10% with canopy temps right now 90-105 and no CO2

I don’t follow VPD either.
I think it’s just another number you can hung up on chasing around.

veg as high RH as you can get (normally I’m 20-45%) until plants fill in a bit more along with humidification (I use an ultra sonic cool mist so helps with temp slightly)

The during flowering I try to keep RH below 50% with good air movement and no humidification but I do run a dehuey in my partial lung room to keep everything more stable.
