I assure you I have different struggles (septoria) I put old humidifier near the inlet and went from 30 to 43% rh in an hour
I would say 95 plus percent of residential growers don’t need CO2 and I’m not sure thats what you want to do right now, maybe monies could be better spent ?
I don’t understand why yours isn’t responding, maybe show us what kind of a humidifier, can you put a picture, Occam’s razor suggests it might not be working properly, have you tried it in let’s say a small bathroom and see if it raises the humidity in there?
I was more referring to our locations and weather as the struggle so no offense. Here’s a picture of the humidifier I got.
One thing I did notice is that my humidity and temp are the same in and out of the tent. I have a thermometer hung outside the tent with a lead going inside to tell me the temp in the tent as well as outside where the thermometer actually hangs.
Yes I do believe money could be better spent elsewhere. I’m just trying to figure out where and fast lol. The humidity dropped to 25% last night. I don’t think I want it that low for very long.
Maybe the humidifier is not the best brand or quality?
Maybe I should get an ultrasonic with a digital readout so it can be tuned in exact?
Either way I can’t help but think my intake fan has something to do with it. It’s too big for the tent but it’s turned all the way down with a phresh filter on it. I can dial in both where the sides of the tent are barley sucking in. With my closet doors closed it sounds like I have Windows 98 running in my closet😎 So quiet.
Thank you tremendously for your advise and experience. I may go to the store and grab a better humidifier and see what happens.

Uploading… Also, probably worth mentioning, I have my fans running 24/7. Hyper fan makes a controller for both in and out fans to work simultaneously with each other depending on temp in the tent.
I’m not convinced that this controller will work for me the way I need it to considering my temp rarely gets above 75%. I’m not sure but I think it would possibly shut off my fans too much? So my tent would be deprived of oxygen?
Once again I’m new to this so don’t be sirprised if it sounds like I don’t know what I’m talking about lol.
Thanks again for the help,

…the cool mist type is popular, inexpensive and seems to work well for most people
I just put mine in the tent & in less than an hour it went from 30 to 45% , I mentioned septoria because I think keeping my humidity too high this past winter and spring caused septoria that I had trouble controlling so I’m not going past 45%
…this legalization is awesome, I’m still happy as hell about it!
I’m pretty sure I solved my humidity issue. I put my humidifier on the outside of my tent, letting my intake fan suck the humid air into the tent. It’s up to 40% from 25% within a half hour. I don’t know if this makes sense but as of now it works lol.
My tent takes up pretty much my entire closet. My intake fan is actually hung above my tent and ducted in. So my humidifier is actually only humidifying a 2’x2’ area all the way up to the ceiling and a 6’x2’ area above the tent.
Like I said before, the temp and humidity was almost exactly the same inside and outside of the tent. So by humidifying the small area left in the closet it has brought up the humidity in the tent. . . For now lol
I think I’m going to buy a backup thermometer, only because my readings the past few weeks have really been !@#$ing with me. Thinking back, it would have been nice to put another thermometer in there to make sure everything is the same.
Normally about the last couple weeks of vegging , and when you get into flowering you train it under the scrog during the stretch , but @Hillcrest can better assist you he grows amazing scroggs .
I think I have an issue. The leaves and stems on my plant are drooping. It started a few days back. I don’t believe I’ve been over watering. I don’t think I’ve been underwatering either. I water very little every other day.
I have fed the plant very little big bloom and grow big (fox farm) 3.75 ml/1.5 ml per half gallon. After mixing, I take ppm and PH. I let it sit for a day or two and check again before I feed.
When I feed I pour less than a pint if that. Even now everything is still very green and lush. It started flowering maybe a week ago so I turned my veg and bloom switch on my light a few days ago.
The temp has gone up to 80-85 degrees and my humidity has stayed around 40%. Before it started dropping I attempted to start bending over the top node as a form of super cropping I guess.
Probably shouldn’t be done on an autoflower. Im wondering if I stressed the plant too much and it’s just sagging temporarily. I will post a photo after work. Any ideas on what or if there’s a problem are greatly appreciated.
I’ve read posts on here saying it could be a number of things. I’ve been only using RO water PHed to 6.5 and my Nutrience has been PHed. When I ph I use very little PH down. One drop at most brings it down between 6.3 and 6.5. I’ve never put anything in my plant that wasn’t tested first.
after turning on your lights, the temperature increased by how much? what was the temp. before the lighting switch? warmer temp. may dry your soil sooner so you may have to increase the amount you feed or increase the feeding interval. i would think the fabric pot is lighter in weight than usual.
Dude thanks for the quick response. Temp before the switch was 68-73 degrees and humidity between 30 and 45. So increase of about ten degrees. Humidity has stayed the same and consistent.
You bring up an obvious point that I haven’t thought of with the soil being dry now due to the temp change. Like I said before I watered so little because it was working. I didn’t want to over water and everything was nice and green.
I did have some burn on the very tips of two fan leaves when I tried increasing the grow big up to 2.5 ml/ half gallon. It did not get any worse and it was so small you had to get close to see.
That was six days ago. I waited a few days and watered with RO water PH 6.5 and this is where I’m at. Do you recommend watering today using more water and see what happens?
Also wondering when or if I should use tiger bloom with big bloom. I’ve calculated down to 3.75 ml/half gallon big bloom and 1.5 ml/half gallon tiger bloom.
I’m going off of a shortened version of fox farm trio nutes chart, converted one tablespoon to 5ml, cut the recommended dose in half, then in half again because I’m mixing in half gallon jugs.
If I’m doing something like a complete moron, please feel free to say, “moron, you don’t do that”. If you’re interested, read the rest of my post. I’ve laid out basically everything I’ve done so far.
i happen to be growing the same auto blueberry. your recent picture says it is 26 days old. mine is at 35 days. your plant looks healthy, can’t see the droop in the leaves or discoloration. also using fox farm trio, but started off at 1/4 strength per gallon and now at 1/2 strength per gallon. it is in a 3 gallon pot. i feed the entire gallon of water with nutrients all the time. let the water come out the bottom and i try to see what the ph is in the run off. ph in is between 6.7-6.2. run off is always above 6.1. just a reminder that your plant is gaining height, so your light may need to be moved higher, unless you are already in the sweet spot.
