So it took me all day up until now! I got it done and figured the heat issue. Tent was up to 101 =0. Got it around 86 88 now. Please let me know if you see anything alarming . Went to 3 gal pots and need bigger plastic thingies that go under the pots.

Looks good to me. If you live in a dry climate the humidifier will help cool down the tent when it’s misting. So if you can control the heat in there with just your exhaust fan the humidifier will contribute to the cooling cause.

Thank you, yes i have the light on like 2 notches (so basically low) and its 85 F 62% H . Thats with the bottom tent vent open. I plan on getting circular powerful fn to bring in fresh air. I cant imagine having the light on full blast.

Help, have 3 temp / humidity meters and all 3 have different temps and humidity . One is off by 10, recommendations on new ones? @Eagles009 @Nicky not sure who to tag lol

Yup haha!
So my suggestion is from here on only buy sensors you can calibrate, hence those cheap ones are junk.
Some of these new Bluetooth ones give you the ability to go into the settings and adjust it.
Get a 75% bovida pack (big one) put it in a zip lock and calibrate it after a day

I have a pack of 62% B packs would that work? So i have two of the bluetooths dialed in and the other is a degree off but i have them set in different places. 1 is hanging a foot above. To fix the heat issue i had to open up the closet door. Super noisy but its worth it. I am defiantly learning , the hydro shop could have sold me a 260.oo air system but he just said open the door lol.
Thank you as always!!

The AC infinity series are much quieter, great investment. Get the T series the controller is a God send.
I heard a 75 is the most accurate due to salt content or something, it’s what the cigar guys use and they are super serious about it so yeah I bought a single 75% on a big one and put mine in a freezer Ziplock.
Close enough I Geuss, honestly it’s something I’ve learned about recently and have yet to check how my expensive (AC infinity T6 @ inkbird) sensors compare.
Before I used them to calibrate it but I trust the bovida in a bag more honestly.
I have multiple different types of sensors and they all read differently that’s why I’m finally fed up and searched out calibrating these things recently. Currently I have a couple sensors Ina. Bag I have to go calibrate them but been busy with life and have 4 calibrated so far which is all I need at this moment.

Looks nice. I always put a fan on the light some how. Just to keep the board cool. Also sometimes try and turn you fan. Like I use Big fans. To get the air moving around. At night I’ll get the temperature is low as I can without stress and the plants. And then I did something the other day when it got a little too warm I’ll just cut the lights off for about 20 minutes that made a big deal of heat reduction during the day. I’ve noticed this Run when they get close to the 11th hour or of 12. They look tired. I’m not really sure if I should cut them back a little bit but I’m not

So when you mix up the jacks it’s best to do it the day before? I ran into some happy frog real cheap and I turned around and they had Jack’s that was way cheaper than I’ve seen anywhere else. They are in the big bags but I also can use it for my grass outside.

I would wait for someone else as i only used it a few times and i used it right away. Used hot water to mix in then cool the rest. I got 3 LBS for around 27 i think. @Eagles009 turned me onto it. Unfortunately at the hydro shop the dude hooked me up with other stuff. I will save the jack and it will last for years lol

It’s freaking me out with all those meters. I’m worried. Lol. I have different ones. I got a super nice the dehumidifier The other day I’m not having a problem with that. Is trying to keep the humidity up. I don’t understand why. I have it pumping. I’ve even put hot plates down with tea kettles. Hang in towels out of 5 gallon buckets which that works pretty good with hot water and then I’ll just reuse the water but the smell. I use a lot of Neptune and Alaskan fish food. It’s a little cheaper it gets a little stinky.
