Once your plants get bigger with more leaves they will perspire and raise the humidity on their own. Plus when you get you garden going full speed you are gonna to want the plants in veg as little as possible. I veg my clones for 9 days on average before I switch to 12/12. Many small plants are a lot better than a few huge plants. So what I'm trying to say is veg humidity is not that big a deal. I would put all fund towards optimizing flower conditions. A good dehumidifier is at least $130 but is essential to growing fat buds without mold. After a while you are going to be wishing for the days when LOW humidity was your problem.

I just picked up a humidifier at target for $19.99 its uses hot mist and raises the temps just to give you a heads up

Thanks for the input, Stoney

. I know I have one of the old-style "cool-mist" humidifier around here somewhere. The trick is finding it.

M J,
With an RH of 20% I am hoping I do not need a dehumidifier. Air is really dry here year around so my fingers are crossed that I can keep my flowers under ~40% without help.

Thanks for stopping by, Kellie. Welcome. So far so good.

Just over 2 hours till lights on, then it's transplant time

you need to bring up your RH in your room for veg. 20% is way low

might be ok for flower but that will deffinetly slow down your veg growth. get a humidifier for veg and then just leave it off during flower

Hi Hydro. Fix for RH is in the werx

Transplant is done. Formal update later tonight w/ pics.

beennoobed · #**126** 12-04-2008, 10:57 PM

lookin forward to the pics

70-79F 20% RH (Looking for cool mist humidifier. I'm pretty sure it is hiding behind the holiday stuff

)
Lights - 4-6"
Transplanted today

My Moms are in their new homes. The pics below are about 15 mins after transfer. And now, 10 hours later they are still happy. No droop yet

I was going to label Mallory (DP) so I could tell it from the WB but in looking it is already very easy to tell the more sativa hybrid.

The Indicas are much rounder already.

I have decided to go with FloraNova Bloom 1-part from GH at 8ml/g. Should give me about 1000ppm @ .5 from start to finish. No flush. The updated "Lucas Formula". I have really good water (65-75PPM) so I am hoping I can get away with NOT using a lot of PH adjustment besides the nutes. If I can get away with that then I will not change the res for the entire flower cycle. FNG is close enough to what the plant actually consumes that it should not burn as long as I keep my PPM and PH in range. When the res gets to about 800-850, just add back nutes with the top-up water at 2ml/g to start. That should get me back to 950-1000ppm. I know I am rambling and probably confused some readers there so if you have any questions please ask.

Lights on in just over an hour. Then I can check on my transplant patients.

doogleef · #**129** 12-06-2008, 01:39 AM

70-80F - 21% RH
Lights - 4-6" from plants
Still no nutes

The girls have positive growth just 1 day after transfer

There is a generous amount ~15-25% of Higromite in the soil. 1 layer in the bottom and 1 layer 1/2 way up the pot. That stuff is AWESOME. It retains and evaps a huge amount of water in a small amount of time. I can't wait to use it in hydro

I plan on switching on the 400 for veg in a few days. Here are the latest pics

Looking good. I say you pop on the 400 right now but I think I've already said that LOL.
