Starting my grow this weekend

Good Morning Everyone,

I received my seeds in the mail and I am getting ready to start my grow. Just doing a dry run to see baseline temps this is what I have…66% RH with a 24 hour low of 65% and a high of 78% (the high is before I had the exhaust running) and the temp is 73 with a 24 hour low of 68 and high of 73. I believe the temp is fine but the RH is a high. I have a grow room that is 32"x32"x63". I have a carbon filter and a 6" inline fan exhausting out of the top. Right now I am using a passive air intake with the rectangle intake vent open at the bottom to let air in.

  1. If i add an intake fan will that decrease the humidity or is a de-humidifier a better bet?

2)Also, when I put my hand near the intake vent I can feel a slight breeze of air going into the tent because of negative pressure, will this flow of air be enough to strengthen the stems of the plants or should I also get a small clip on fan as well?

You guys are awesome!

I’m pretty sure everyone will tell you to get the clip on fan. That breeze is what will help strengthen the stems the most.

Sounds good. Is it safe to assume that RH is too much?

First off I would like to welcome you to the forum At this point when you are starting having your humidity that high will be fine but as @GetbackJoJo stated if you buy a few cheap clip on fans that should drop it some more but at this point you should be fine with that humidity in your temperatures look great keep up the good work can’t wait to see some pictures
