Whats up ICMAG-vert-crew?
This grow is similar to my previous one so I'll just go over the changes.
Added 9K BTU portable AC - It was my only option. It does have auto-restart and I have a cheap $40 temp controller on the way. My temps will be far more consistent than last time with lows into 70s and highs up to 77 so far when it can't keep up with 100F+. It's sitting a few foot off the floor and there is a big floor fan assisting with it's intake.
On the other side of the AC is a whole-home humidifier and instead of filling up the small white tank on the right three times a day, I just let it sit in a rubbermaid. The climate here is extremely dry and with the AC going non-stop I can't keep my RH above 25% during the day time. In my previous thread I arrogantly ignored the advice from others about the need for a humidifier so I'd like to specially thank DHFred because he's been such an asset to our community and has even been able to through my dense head. Come time to flower at night, bigger plants, and with my temp controller, I should be able to keep my RH 50-65%. So, exhaust air is mixed with the fresh cold air, floor fan to move things around, and only intakes on one side of the tent to pull in the humid air. Tossed in a pic of how I check my canopy temps which are usually around 75F.
