sure play around with it remember to give it a few hours after each adjustment so you can really dial it in . it took me 8 hours to get the thermostat just right on my heater! 4 trys and i gave it two hours then take the readings from the digi thermo/humid meter it keeps highs and lows is great to help get the room right was like 11 bux at walmart!

I'm not sure i've never vegged a plant indoors before. Hopefully not 2 months?? :X

I was originally planning on growing them to like 18" and then flip.
If you have any ideas or suggestions on how to veg these girls let me know. I planned on using the FIM technique at around 10".

i would at least let them veg over a month since you have the room but no enough plant then just let them get big. 18-24 inches tall i would switch to 12/12.

My humidity is as low as 25% right now..I need to tape an intake shut..to much airflow.

I'm also gonna buy some styrofoam for my concrete floor.. its way to cold lol

thats what i was thinking...

look into getting an AIR-2 ozone controller...you hook your fan and de/humidifier to it and set the desired temps...it kicks each of those components off and on when needed to regulate and get those readings.

also, maybe getting another fan for intake would help as well...hook both your fans to timers...warm stale air out for 2 minutes, fresh cool air in for 2 minutes...so on and so forth...this break in sucking out the air will help build humidity...and the plants will appreciate the fresh air coming in.

just my $0.02...good luck

Thanks alot for the great advice.
Its not "too much airflow" because even with both ducts taped shut the humidity stays that low.
With that ozone controller I can hook up a normal humidifier or would it be best to get a good one?

Maybe I could try the intake fan / exhaust timers, that sounds like it would work great. I really like the idea of the exhaust fan cutting out @ a certain temp.

Oh well, better too little humidity for now rather then too much I suppose. Although I see a slight wilt in the leaves, the humidity is up to about 38% and they aren't wilting nearly as bad.

you can run any humidifier on a controller but it must have knobs or a switch if it has soft touch buttons when it powers down it wont start up without pushing buttons.
