what do you do?

I don't know why i said that this idea we have would mean running lights during the day, causing a heat problem. must have been stoned. So thas what I'll do then, lights on at night, air fom outside (so i get better cooling and with lights on, low humidity isn't so crucial.... and then lights off during day (when humidity is lower anyway) with dehumidifier running and a few timed vents, drawing dry air from inside the house...
Thanks Jack

If that don't work maybe find a humidity resistant strain or shut down in the summer months....not that many options when battling mother nature!

Good luck.

If the humidity-problem does not go away, You should try to cool your incoming air.

If you can cool the air from 25Celsius to 15celcius and reheat it to 25, the RH will fall from 100% to 50%

only problem is that if you have to pay for both cooling and heating, it could get expensive.


Another thing: Keeping the temp as high as possible when the lights are off, will allso reduce RH%, when the amount of water pr. kg of air is constant.

unfortunately its getting to be a year round problem here.
About strain- I was growing Serious seeds Chronic (I know, i know, tasteless shit) and that was risky because of the big single cola tendancy and tight nodes with no "trim leaves on the bud - long stemmed fans, all the way up - lost a SHIT LOAD to rot last year . After trying it with like no veg, siting 16 clones per meter, I realised it doesn't like that and yield was low, they just wouoldn't take the food so I got a cut of original Apollo11 (BroGrimm). Instead of donkeydicks, it grows a multitude of buds that are less prone.
aside from that, its a hundred times better smoke and finnishes in 46 days.
Thanks for that though man
