Guest

iight my cab is like 1'11''w x 1'5''d x 3'11''h

i want to get the RH up for veg because right now the highest it gets is about 25% to 27%. do yall have ne suggestions on what i could do.

also i want to know if i have the humidifier outside off my cab will it affect the RH in my cab, the humidifier would b in my closet still but outside of the box, or if ne one has an idea of having it inside my cab, but that wouldnt b good cause of my lights being in such a tight fit huh?

just put a tupperware with water in it somewhere in the cab, need more humidity then add a computer fan blowing across the surface, very cheap and very effective.

Sorry to say man thats not effective at all,if you're lucky the rh may rise a couple points but thats it.I would get a cool mist humidifier with a visable mist,they cost about 30 bucks.Just point the mist inside and let her rip,besides raising relative RH 10 or 15 points,it'll act as a natural mite repellent.Vegging plants do just fdine at 50% RH,but if you can possibly jack it up to 60-70% RH you'll see a big difference.Your RH is way too low for vegging plants,they cant be comfortable.

i think the tupperwear idea might work fine. you could do the same idea with wet towels or other things. the room would have to be warm, but in a cab you should have no problem. maybe even start with hot water, n ring the soaked towel out a lil bit. you would have to perform daily maintinence though. a spray bottle would help, but you would have to repeat many times a day. just make sure you dont mist your light.

no, but a humidifier might be too hard to wrap in his small space. have these trail and error sessions been performed in a small space with little to no ventilation?

aizken, do you even think you can fit a humidifier in that kab? with such a small space and limited vetilation, i think a combo of hot towels, misting, and a thin layer of water would work just fine. you might not get it intos the 70s, but itll be better than nothing. growing in a small cab, i would imagine that you dont veg for long. so, i dont think you would have to do this tedious work for long.

i think if i find a small one i will b able to get one in there. Once i get some clones coing i will only b veggin 3 plants four at the max in my cab. my main concern was having it n there with the lights n with it. the light im getting has a glass cover though.
