I agree with the "get the temp down" posts. You are correct to try to get the RH up during your veg stage. The swamp cooler is a good suggestion. You want to be careful and not get carried away with bringing up humity too much. Then you have to worry about mold.

I did not know that ambient light could be allowed if you are giving plants a dark period during the veg stage. Thank you for the correction.

I veg under 24 hr. light. I know it costs more but I don't have an area that I can give them total darkness in the veg area. I have grow under 18/6 and that was a good schedule. I just find the plants get to the flowering size faster under 24 hr. light. I let my plants get quite big because...
