What do you guys think?

I tried my best to save her but more and more buds started getting bud rot so I chopped her down :'( Here is what I may of saved. So far none of this looks infected but time will tell in the next few days if I will have to also throw these out.

Anyone have recommendations for a good strong dehumidifier? I don't have much room in my 4x2 but it doesn't seem that those little Liter Dehumidifiers do much. At least the one I have doesn't.

You’re going to be much better off dehumidifying the room vs the tent. As you said, the little ones don’t do squat.

Depends on your budget, but I recently got a Midea cube dehumidifier for my grow area in the garage, and that thing kicks ass. There’s a few different variations of it, I got the 35 pint version. I believe it’s also available in 20 and 50 pint versions as well.

That's a great point. I will look into larger ones for the entire room that the tent is in. Thank you for the recommendation!

Sorry to hear of your loss. It happens to everyone. Can you tell us something about the room where the tent is in? You might use that as a lung room which you can climatize with an airconditioning. But then that's an expensive thing. Might just as well turn up the ventilation in the tent to lower the humidity that way?

The tent this plant was in was just in a brand new 2x2 spider-farmer tent. Inside medium size room. The room was just deep cleaned about a week before I setup the tent in there and moved her over from my 4x2.

I use a 30 pint dehumidifier inside a small/medium size room but outside of the tents. Works good. Work on the humidity in the room and the tents will quickly fall in line.

I’m not a Midea, or Amazon, shill. But I really like the dehumidifier. App allows me to check water level, humidity, schedule, turn on/off, etc.

Last thing I wanted to do was spend money on one. But glad I did. Another option might be to look on FB marketplace or something and see if there’s any deals on used. Dehumidifiers here aren’t a common thing. So I had to go new.

EDIT - Dehumidifiers here in Southern California aren't a common thing. So I had to buy new.

Did some research and for what it's worth it seems like the biggest res, most compact design, smart features, built in pump, etc. I could only find the 50 pint one near me at home depot. They have a 90 return policy so I said f it and decided to try it out. Working so far by dropping my room down 10% but it adds a decent amount of heat to the room now lol. 80 degrees fahrenheit and 50% humidity with no heat source going into the room. If I open the window to cool it down the humidity just jumps right back up to 60-62%.

FYI a canopy temp of 82 F and 60% RH is my sweet spot. YMMV and all that jazz and such.

Oh I see. I was going to try going off this but I don't know. I'm just paranoid to get bud rot on my other 2 plants now.

Don't need a dehumidifier with a big rez to save some $. I have a small piece of garden hose hooked to mine and that dumps it into a bucket and I only have to dump it a couple times a week and it runs enough to keep the "lung" room where it should be. Most dehumidifiers have the hose port and all you have to do is cut off the female end of any regular hose and keep it higher then the bucket

Your plants look good. Look at a VPD chart. Don’t have to follow it religiously, but it will help you understand the correlation between temp and RH. Bud rot is real, but keep the air moving in the tent and you’ll be ok.
