Regulate temp and humidity in drying/curing room

[cherokee420]

Are there any climate automation devices out there that will help maintain the perfect temp/humidity? Thanks

 

[cherokee420]

affordable ones anyway? iponic looks expensive, although I'm sure worth every penny

I would like to know this also. My curing has been off since I been in this new environment.

Cap makes a tmpdne controller thats awesome for temperature cool/heat $60
and their are several humidity controlers out there i just use the dial on my $40 walmart cool mist humidifier for my humidity
you could spend abunch of coin and go to a environmental controller but their 4-5 hundred dollars

I use this: http://www.amazon.com/AGPtek®-WH8040-Digital-Humidity-Controller/dp/B009VXXBCQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1438031045&sr=8-1&keywords=humidity controller

set it at 65% and drop it a percent per day after 1 week. A Charm

You can also make one with arduino for half that but not near as nice.

i do a 3-4 week dry of manicured buds. to do this i keep the humidity level above 65 below 75%. THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR IS GREAT AIR CIRCULATION. thats whats going to prevent mold from growing. i use my grow room to dry so i keep the exhaust fan on and have an oscillating fan blowing over the tops top the buds that are sitting in dehydrator type trays. turn buds every couple days, slowly drop the humidity after 3-4 weeks to a stable 55-60%, jar'em up, burp every couple days, then i use a pump-in-seal to vacuum seal. check every couple months

Yeah the CAP looks sweet! http://www.greners.com/i/meters-timers/controllers/brand/cap-controllers/cap-co2-2e-timer-controller-ppm-temp-humidity-10-ampat120vac.html

So will this work with the above?
I have an exhaust fan and want to exhaust from the flower room, into the living room because my winters get real cold and I only have a wood stove to heat the house, no central air, damn raccoons ripped out my ducting and it's gonna cost $5k to fix.

I want to pull cold air (20 to 40 degrees average) from the outside when the flower room hits say 77 degrees, and keep it around a constant 72-75. If this is possible, these two fans alone should be able to regulate temps in the room. I don't think the CAP can do this, but is there anything out there that can?? Should I be concerned about exhausting co2 from flower room into a common area?

Do you use it with a certain humidifier?

Do you use it with a certain humidifier?

I have the drying box in the same room as my grow room which is 55% RH with a dehumidifier. It has a fan on the top to exhaust humid air.
