    Lower temps may help bring out those purple hues. Shock them with 50°F temp for a day or two in the cold and they may get some color. This is my usual tactic to get blueberry crosses to show their blueberry heritage. Another benefit to the lower temps is to signal your plants that fall is ending...

    Humidity over 80, lights out.

    It gets so warm because of my dual bulb CMH fixture. Its open and puts out about as much heat as a 600w HPS but performs better than 1000w HPS. 80F is a problem, when lights out, because RH hangs at 80-90% with only an internal circulating fan. Mold and powdery mildew love that environment.

    Humidity over 80, lights out.

    Picked up another dehumidifier from a friend and tested it out this morning with no changes to my air intake or exhaust! This thing kicked RH's @$$!! Drop kicked humidity from 75% to 30% in just two hours on max!! I had to crack open the tent with lights out just to lower the setting before I...

    Humidity over 80, lights out.

    Great idea! I'll start a mission to find out what it is and where to get one!! Lmao!! I've considered dampers, like on a dryer exhaust. Let air one way but not the other. But if there is enough pressure inside the tent, it'll probably keep opening and closing them. This would surely minimize...

    Humidity over 80, lights out.

    I've tried this already. And while it works alright during lights out, my home air is too warm in the winter to cool the tent from heat generated by the 630w dual bulb CMH fixture. I cant find an air cooled dual bulb CMH fixture, to help remedy the heat from this fixture.

    Humidity over 80, lights out.

    Diggs99, If I run the exhaust 24/7, it helps with the humidity a little, but then it gets too cool inside tent. Just one fan running causes such a vacuum, that running only exhaust will draw cool air in from intake. Or the other way, just the intake on will suck too much cool air in and not...

    Humidity over 80, lights out.

    Second grow and looking for advice. I use a temperature controller to maintain my temps and the humidity is just fine while lights are on. When lights are out, my humidity jumps to 80%. No heat to remove the humidity in dark. What have others used to control humidity when connected to outside...
