Hey thanks bud. Heh ya she is in every corner that’s for sure, even with the 3d printed tent spreaders I made giving a hair more room.
She got her last feedings the last few days. Top dressed and watered in with sprouted blue corn tea and then a compost tea earlier. Nothing but water from here on out I think.

Cool you said you run a cheap humidifier?

Yes I run a cheap humidifier in all the tents for the most part. The one in this tent is just a 6$ one from the thrift store and most of the others I cant even find on amazon anymore lol. Seems they were 4.5 liter cool mist humidifiers around 39$. I really want to find a cheap one that holds more water and maybe puts out more vapor because its hard to keep my 4x4 balanced on humidity/heat to keep the VPD in order sadly.

My wife had the idea to put our vaporizer in my shed to bring up the rh
Wonder if that can work, it’s the ones you put like vics in when your sick.

It might work, I assume its a warm mist vaporizer? If so, I hear those are potentially bad for causing mold in some environments, just something to think about.
Ok I see it in the tent behind your plant.

My rh in my shed wants to hover around 40%, I guess it’s not bad but I want to optimize everything as much as possible. I don’t have any insulation in there so it could help with my temps too when it gets cooler

It could help with temp by a few degrees possibly, but I would air on the side of caution when it comes to warm water vapor that’s for sure. 40% is not horrible, I try to stay 40% and up.

Thanks for that. Sounds like it would be walking a tightrope with very little upside. Have to look into one like yours soon, running electric heat in the outbuilding I am setting up will definitely dry the air out a lot right?
Yea if you’re having issues in your tent I guess I might need more than one. I showed my son your plant couldn’t believe it was one plant.

Ya it will dry it out a bit more indeed. Lights turning on start to drop the RH in the room and then added heat will drop it down a little more as well. Always fun trying to balance everything to where when the lights go out, your RH wont get to high. I understand why people use environmental controllers to keep things turning on and off at the right times. I usually try to find a good middle ground between my humidifier settings and exhaust settings to where it is in an acceptable range for me lights on or off. It can vary a bit when the plants get watered heavy and cranks up the RH in the room a bit. I would like to get the tents under control a bit more, but I would need something like a NIWA controller or something of the sort. I may be able to piece together a cheaper option with separate units to do the job and not a all in 1 digital power strip thing like a NIWA. Baby steps though heh, I am not trying to shatter any records, just grow some organic flowers on as cheap as I can for the most part.

Heh, ya I figured it would be fun to just trellis that plant down to take over the whole tent since I had some time to spare with some smaller upset plants I am still fighting with. A few bad decisions made their health suffer madly.

I will be firing up another topic for the no till living soil beds I am doing in the other tents. I am most likely just going to pot 4 of the small sad plants into the 3x3 bed and let them start trying to get healthy in some good quality soil here any day, so that will be a fun project indeed.

Yea I’ll be very interested to see that too.
I like the living soil idea may gave to look into it since I have the room in the shed
Things are starting to get a little heavy in there. Branches are starting to lean and flop over, a branch is trying to break etc. Had to ratchet strap a few things up yesterday and put a zip tie brace on a branch to keep it from going bye bye. More pics/updates soon.

This poor shrub is going to collapse if it keeps thickening up.

I guess most of these little colas are just going to finish off sideways lol. I keep pulling leaves off the branches but the little bit of weight I remove has not helped them in that since at all.
@DougDawson I see some PPPx seeds waving hello at me.
