    Default Major humidity problems what should I do to bring it down

    Hi all I have 4 plants in a 1 meter by 1 meter by 2 meter tall grow tent and have majorly high humidity levels what different methods would u guys suggest to use to bring it down about 30% there in flowering stage and looking really healthy apart from a tiny bit of humidity burn on just the tips of the leafs.This needs addressing before it gets way worse and i then get all sorts of problems. Any info would be awesome thanks

    Afternoon mukka first off I’d go about getting a dehumidifier and lots of air circulation is needed... so some oscillating fans

    I've heard that using a dehumidifier can do damage to the plant's? Just wondering as there's alot of different growers that use different methods

    Hi Bigmeal69, sorry to read you're having issues..what is your humidity levels right now?..I would not personally shoot for 30% either..anything between 35-55% is fine in my opinion.

    It's quite difficult to reduce humidity, just make sure you have good ventilation, air movement and if it really is terrible then you could invest in a decent dehumidifier. If you do decide to go down that route, however, make sure to not sit it inside the tent..rather wherever your air is getting pulled in from to avoid any damage to the leaves and lower humidity slowly as not to stress your plants.
