You know the plant (thanks to rubisco) hook the C atom in the co2 molecule just through the stomata.
A low VPD value let the stomata to open wide,so the plant has a great co2 availability.
In the other hand there is low h2o absorption from the roots,because the leaves already have a lot of water inside and need not much h2o due to little transpiration.
Having an high VPD value leads the stomata reduce their opening.This means the plants has little co2 availability but there is a lot of water absorption from the roots due to more transpiration through the leaves.More uptake of water from the roots means also more nutrients absorption,from the substrate to the top of the plants to be used after.
If a grower doesn't use a carbon scrubber than they should shoot for VPD of ~0.8-1 kPa for veg and ~1 kPa for flowering. But if they have a carbon scrubber than they should shoot for ~1.25 Kpa all the time.
To find VPD one needs to know the canopy temp (under shade), and RH, and ideally average leaf temp.
Using VPD is ideal because that allows us to provide ideal stomatal conductance, which in turn allows for ideal rate of transpiration ("E") and carbon fixation; the former in turn allows for ideal uptake (and translocation) of Ca and Bo because they need to be 'sucked' up into roots with water, unlike other elements.
VPD is RH, canopy temp and leaf temp; but because leaf temp is hard to accurately measure and also be representative of all leafs, just using canopy temp and RH is fine for most people.
Quote: To be short,a low VPD value coincide with high umidity
Kind of, low VPD coincides with higher RH and lower temp.
Quote: on the other hand an high VPD value coincide with low humidity in the air
Kind of, high VPD coincidences with lower RH and higher temp.
