Outside isn’t an option. My little sister’s friends come over a lot. Apparently it’s not good enough to educate kids these days.
It took years of wearing them down before I was given the okay to grow indoors. The whole house just eminates weed now. I go next door to get something and all I smell is my plants.
As far as airflow I’ve had troubles there. All of my fans are either too strong or too weak to add any benefit. I set my AC on turbo fan speed and 70 and I see 70f all night after I moved the fans around the house. If I concentrate on the room only the Rh of the house gets too high and I can’t drop it in the room no matter how much airflow I add in there.
The heatwave the last week had made it unchangeable for humidity. I was caught in the 80% range each night.
Now that it’s cool at night again I see 70% on 70f as I’m used to seeing in there.
During the day I see a range of 55%-35% Rh in the room.
I might have to increase the AC to 75-80. It feels pretty chilly in the house now t hat I’ve had it circulating the last few days outside of the grow room. I have a fan in every room except for the bathroom. In the grow room the air is definitely not stale.
If I had to guess it’s bad architecture. Airflow appears to be choked at every doorway or frame. Sometimes to a point like the grow room where even if it has a wind tunnel in there it won’t make a difference. Outside of that room even with the door wide open the air just appears to stop almost as if the door was closed. I can stand in front of the door frame and I won’t feel any airflow. I’ve since worked out a system with my house to force air out of that room. I had to make a vacuum by arranging the fans at key points around the house. Using my microwave exhaust fan to add most of the force to do it. It’s a industrial convection oven/microwave at least. Ducting and all attached. Not anywhere near a whole house fan that sucks out all the hot air, but definitely more than ice seen on any microwave I’ve ever owned before.
Long story short I have for the moment solved my airflow issue. It wasn’t easy as I had to wait a few days for each test to show results. This one keeps the whole house cool by circulating the cool air around the house finally. It also has the bonus of forcing out humidity and heat. I’ve been at a loss the whole time as to how I can do that. I decided that the plants gently rustling shouldn’t take an AC, a high power fan, a low power fan, and a air purifier to do I can’t move the AC and the air purifier needs a new prefilter, but once I replace the bits it needs I can use that in place of a dehumidifier. It made the air in my place so dry at peak efficiency that I had to start drinking about 3-5 gallons of water a day just to keep myself from dehydration. If I have just a gallon I get that tell tale sign I was dehydrated.
I’ve checked the plants and they are receiving decent airflow now. No dew forming and no leaves drop below 64. With the humidity finally down I’m seeing a average of 68-78f on all leaves and bud sites with the exception of Holly who’s sitting at 84f average on top.
I feel like I’ve repeated myself a lot, so I’ll cut the reply here
