Don’t forget the dehumidifier once you start getting deeper into flower. It’ll get extremely humid after lights out in your tent
Yeah man, my humidity while my lights are off has been rising up to 69%. My portable ac unit has a dehumidifier setting, but I think I have to get another exhaust hose for it. I'll be looking into that. The only con about that is I would have to install and remove it every day. I'm looking into small ones that would work great in my 5x5 tent. I dont know if it would work right since my main exhaust is on 24/7

Get one of the ones that have a decent size. I tried to be cheap in mine with a $40 unit and was upset it was half the size of my cool most humidifier lol. Not even strong enough to really put a dent into it

@Deltagreen if your going to use a dehumidifier place it in the room the tent is in, not the inside the tent. My reasoning behind it is, your sucking humidity into the tent from the room, so run the humidifier in the room itself so the tent sucks in the dryer air. With it in the tent I don't think it will have a chance to remove the humid air before the extractor sucks it out.
Let us know how you get on, grows looking grand.

Zypheruk, my tent is in my garage, the humidity in the garage is constantly between 40%-44%. I run my lights and AC from 7pm-7am and my RH ranges from 36%-51%, RT between 71°-76°. My exhaust runs 24/7 and I have a passive intake that's always open. What I noticed yesterday when the temperature in my garage during the day was around 75%F my humidity in my tent while the lights were off was at 41%, but today when my garage was 78-79°F 44% humidity during the day my humidity was up to 61% in the tent. So I'm going to try to cool down the temps in my garage first and if that doesn't work I'll try your suggestion and use the dehumidifier in the garage. Thanks again

Really are starting to explode now. I can see you problem with having the tent in the garage. Are you venting your exhaust out of the garage. Im not sure how to solve the issues if not, hopefully others in the same situation could chime in.

I was inspecting my plants and found one leaf with what looks like nutrient burn and then I noticed the tips on a bunch of the top leaves and they have yellow tips. I'm wondering if that could be from the intensity of the light. When I changed my reservoir 5 day ago my ppm was at 1100, tonight it was at 1634. Max ppm on my feeding schedule for this week is 1550. How do I got about lowering ppm by 200? pH is at 6.2 I have about less than 15 gallons left in my reservoir

Day 28F
Everything is pretty much the same as last week, had to add 2 extra gallons to my reservoir to drop my ppm from 1400 to 1000. PH is at 6, RT 72°F, RH 43%, reservoir 70°F.

Week 7 of Flower day 42
So it looks like I'm going to be repeating week 7 for 2 weeks of my nutrient feeding schedule. I think supercropping them put me back a week on bud development. So my feeding schedule gives me the option to add extra weeks on week 6 or 7, so I'll be doing 2 weeks of week 7 on my feeding chart. Everything is doing and looking good.
