i was in la la land as to powder mildew as i always ran overkill with the fans. Now I have switched to a t5 for veg and I thought a cool small fan and a 600 hps for flower and a co2 setup in tank with cooltubes and a small fan to exhaust all night and once in day. Well sure enough the second day of flower like this I got pw and the veg tent got a little power off and suddenly bam, all over it to.

So now it is all over. I have sulfure and neem oil sprays. The sulfur is pissing me off as it looks like it diseases the plants with sulfur. Lol. neem is next to mix and spray. but i think all sprays are bad news for me right now. I am gona do a milk shot for the veg later today.

I want a dehumidifier. Only which one. I can get a good deal on a big 200 dollar 24 pint model right now. I have a 20 by 10 room with two tents in it and a big window I exhaust out of. Could I theoretically just put the machine in the middle of the room and hope to pull out the moisture of the room enough? Prob not I think. the flower is almost sealed and the veg tent might do some good.

I was instead looking at bathroom dehumidiers. They are small and could hang form the tent poll. Work perfect by size. Only would that fuck with my co2? Pulling out the moisture? I exhaust at night with a 200 cfm cpu fan. I need a real 4 inch soon too. but how does dehumidifier affect co2 I wonder from experience.


Also I found plans for a diy sulfur burner that uses a big green light and a coke can inside a coffee can and regular garden sulfur. Easy to make. I might do that. Very cheap.


Or it is the bacteria spray. Or I read somewhere that potassium salts of fatty acids work too but they only state for bug spray on the bottles.


PW is so irratating.

One day of humidity and it breaks out. I read about having it and thern it shows. So IDK but I have a few ideas where I got it.

well as i wait to figure out what to buy first, a bathroom dehumidier or a sulphur burner I made a spray of half liquid milk, water, and neem oil and sprayed my plants in veg. It looks ok so far. I am not sure of application rate so I will hit it every day for a few days once or twice. I still got these white spots tho.

also my tents are 4x4x6 in size, both of them.

also i used those desicant crystals for boats and painting from hd and it worked but in my tent it was gone in a sec!

This is from the future! You need a large capacity dehumidifier, at least 65 pints. I have a 30pt and a 65pt going 24/7 in my flower tent, keeps it barely at 40%rh
