It didnt. It rose ALOT! I think it's because it doesn't have a recirculate setting. Only pulls auir from outside. It made it jump, man.

I didn't let the AC run for long, today... maybe it was already high humidity, and I hadn't given it long enough to drop it back down... idk.

Window unit...but it's not in a window. *This is a good story*:lol: ... . .. When I showed up at the farm with an AC unit, we decided that the best way to install it was to put it right in the wall, but there are no windows in our room... So before any holes can be cut, I put trash bags over the girls, and moved them into a dark room. I no longer told bass420 i had them outta the way, and his country ass fires up a chainsaw and starts cuttin a hole in the side of his fuckin' house, man! Hahaha. While I was inside moving the girls, he took all the measurements he cared to, and when I said go ahead Dude went to town!

So yeah... Window unit.;-)

Thats how we do it lmao, might have to pick yourself up a dehumidifier. cool thing about them is you can use the water they collect to water with. its essentially distilled water.

Hope not, man. Those things are kinda cashy.

yeah well you could also put some ice packs behind one of your fans an put a basin of some sort underneath to collect condensation dripping off. you would need to be draining the water off somwhere outside the room. but yeah your right they are pretty pricey.

At the farm, now.(On the slow-ass cell phone) Donkey, you were right, brother. The humidity dropped right along with temp.

When the lights came on, I let the CO2 run its first cycle. As usual, not 10 minutes into CO2 saturation, the temp jumped to about 85. I opened the door and turned the AC on... The temp and the humidity steadily dropped together. Problem solved. Now I'm in the process of getting the thermostat balanced at about 72-76. I jumped the gun posting issues with humidity.

I put the AC on a timer and set it to run with the lights. I also set it to turn off for the first half of each CO2 session. I know that turning the AC on half way through causes loss of CO2, but Im makin' lemonade, man. Haha.

Problem solved. I spent half the night there, but got all the bugs worked out. Temp stays 72-77 and the humidity stays 40-55%.

I feel kinda dumb now. My original intention was to put in the AC unit, and just show sum pics of it & explain that I had some heat stress, but I thought I had a humidity problem and kinda' got stressed for nothin.

Oh, well. Problem solved. Im imitating fall MUCH more comfortably for them now, man. Haha.

Now that I'm getting my full CO2 saturation, I can't wait to see the bud these hookers pack on in the next few weeks.:twisted:

Later!

:leaf::peace:

Got an issue you may be able to help me with, donkey. Im in the process of poppin' all my outdoor seed. Every seed I attempted to crack did so, and shot a tail out... Except my "Church" seed ... ... and all three of my Island Sweet Skunks. Yep. All three are dead cells, so far. I sunk all the seeds in cups of tapwater. Once submerged, I put them in paper towels, then onto a seedling heat mat. The Sweet Skunks wont even crack. Is my method flawed?

Every other bean popped, except The Church. I tried to start one. It didnt work. I'm now trying a second, and nothing yet. So, it's not just the Sweet Skunks. Im also having trouble with my Churchs. I've got 16 other beans of different genetics that all are already popped outta they're shell, placed in rockwool, and doing they're thing.

It's not all bad news. All 5 of my SLHs popped and shot nice shutes.:-P

Haha. So was I. i promised a couple of my buddies a branch from the seedrun, so they could keep the strain as well.

Oh, well. It aint like I've given up on em. They're still on the heat mat. Even if they dont crack, i've got my hands plenty full, this summer.

Should I resubmerge them?
