    Default Humidity problem

    I am in a 6060x140 tent, 4 autoflowers all growing vigorously, since placing in final pots (12 litre smart pots) the humidity has hit 90% and I am in week 4 of veg , no space for a dehumidifier..what can I do? Let them fully dry out and water less.

    Am I correct in assuming that when the plants get bigger and fill the smart pots up, they will drink quicker causing the water in the soil to evaporate ar a faster rate, resulting in the humidity lowering? Upon checking right now, it's at 80%

    The moisture is caused by the plants transpiring (sweating from its stomata) as they grow. The more they grow the quicker they transpire, the more moisture gets released into the air. This intensifies going into flower.

    80% is good for seedlings but veg should be 50-60% and flower around 35-50% to prevent rot and mould.

    Whats your airflow/ventilation system like?

    NO SELL, NO SMELL, NO TELL!!!
