Can’t keep humidity up

[Faceoff_one]

@growbot hey thanks. Could you possibly link me to what you recommend or what exactly I’d need to search. I can’t find anything that’s work out of a 5 gal bucket.
But yeah this sounds like it could be a major win especially if it’s not too expensive. I would love to be able to run the fan they slow while the lights on.

I have one of these in my 4 x 6 x 8 space. I only need it the first 3 weeks then the plants transpire enough to take over, then too much so the exhaust fan gets faster......... It is a dance. The Humidity Tango do you hear it!

Humidity tango for sure. I have a 3 x 3 tent and have an Iobonics adjustable exhaust fan. Passive intake. The adjustable exhaust fan sure make the dance a little easier to dial in to keep the humidity/temperatures in a decent range. I am presently using a one speed humidifier which is better than nothing yet I want to get one with at least two settings, which would make it even easier to dial in.

I'm 3 weeks into my second indoor grow after totally screwing up most everything on the first grow. It all is quite the balancing act from PH to nutes to lights to RH to temperature to watering. The autoflower indoor boogie.

I bet the same people make the fan, looks the same as mine, I use the humidifier in the bucket with a lid, put a computer fan over one of 2 holes you cut in the lid and it works well. I use a PWM module from amazon to slow the fan and crudely control the output of my diy humidifier.

Amazon product

Just get a small 9 or 12 volt power supply and hook it to 2 terminals and hook the fan to the other 2 "motor" terminals. I had a regular humidifier in there and it sucked, also the filter got moldy...gross.

Yeah that looks pretty sweet man. A better version of mine but mines excellent all the same. Inline fan hasn’t had to go past 5/10 and the humidity/temp are much more consistently ideal. And the 1.5 gal lasts all day. Mines not a top till though which is a drag but hey i got it on offer up for 15 bucks.

Yours is dope as hell though man. How long between filling the tank?

edit: oh damn it also has an app and honestly I really want it now. I do have another tent, 4x8x6 I think. Think it would work Alone?

 

[Joeshoe]

Fill just depends on how hard im running it sometimes once a day sometimes once every few days

I do something like this but two single heads, around 50 total bucks
