    Default Dehumidifier time

    Autumn is here and my humidity is creeping up. Would a 10l dehumidifier be adequate for a 4'x2' tent in a 8'x15' room, or should I go for a 12l. Thoughts?

    Go for as big as you can and stick it on a inkbird controller.

    Go as big as you can. I have a 20l outside in my 2x2m lung room. Its stuggels to keep it down due to the exhause fan always push new air in! And remember that the unit creates ALOT of heat!

    I'm prepared this time around and got myself a 12l Meako dehumidifier.

    They do a 20l version but this 12l one is a beast for my little grow area.

    They are good dehumidifiers thought, ive got a little Swan one and an elecrticq from appliance direct which hasn't missed a beat which is good enough for small-medium tents

    Definitely better than the pissy little thing that I used for my first grow mate. Lol.

    Think it dropped RH down by 1%

    I was looking at a meaco, can you set what humidity you want it at?
