Perfect humidity for marijuana seedlings
There are slightly different rules for marijuana seedlings because they already have a taproot during germination, which can absorb moisture and grows really fast. You should not clip the leaves of the seedlings, because the plant needs it for the absorption of light, and the evaporation of water. Yet, it’s not a bad idea to keep the humidity high because the seedling can also absorb water and nutrition via its leaves. You can start at 60% and then gradually reduce it to 40%
I'm starting the growing process with a humidity around 60%, and then lower it by 5 each week until I reach a humidity of 40%. I will be using a humidifier and a fan speed control to do this.

Today is November 6, 2016
The time 8:30am.
I cut a small piece off my black ducting, entered it in the side of the tent. Then I placed the other part of the ducting on top of the humidifier that sits outside tent. (I added 1 gallon of distilled water). Which works out great. Just it turns the whole plug off. So I put the humidifier on a timer set on/off every other button and changed outlets.( the fan is just the opposite with the timer) I noticed that most of the moisture was being captured on the pot. I turned the ducting away from the pots. The moisture makes water so I put a plastic bowl under it to catch the water when it comes out the ducting. I also reset the hydrometer.

Tip:
When the water is gone from the humidifier the humidity will down into the 40s. Always have it filled.
Put a paper towels down to catch water dipping down the wall.
The time is 11:17pm
After 24 hours of monitoring and making adjustments to the humidity.
The humidity is stable at 60%
Next- I will time the humidifier to see how long I can be away without refilling it.
Time 11:00am 1 gallon poured in max limit.
