Mann no dice. And air is being pulled into the ac, so its not leaking, and I've set it up to drain and its pulling hella water outta the air. So warm air holds more moisture than cold air, rest of the house is warmer than the bathroom. Warm air comes in, cools off rh goes up. Ac no longer...

Just finished up. Took longer than expected, of course my local store didnt have the 5 to 6in reducers. We will see shortly.

Aight so the homie in the ac mod thread told me what's up. Not gonna seal the unit, instead put the 5 to 6" reducers on each side of ac. Canfan goes on the exhaust side of ac to outside, intake of ac hooks to carbon filter. Sounds fucking genius. Gonna do it first thing tomorrow am. Will let ya...

2 things to fix what's going on here. 1 I came across from a member here, still waiting on his reply to a message I sent to see if he think itll fix what I have going in. https://www.rollitup.org/t/modifying-portable-a-c-for-use-in-sealed-grow-room-w-co2-tutorial-w-pix.887831/#post-12008986...

Typically the rh is low. Been inconsistent right now due to spring. But 2 or 3 days ago it was 30% outside, and it wouldn't budge from 70 something %. Well the board was pretty leaky around the edges, and really bad at the ac hoses. Fixed the edges and just removed the ac, hadn't had a problem...

Got the board sealed back up def not pulling air in anymore, but I dont have an ac either. Humidity is going down, will see where it's at in an hour or so. Gonna leave the central ac on for now, and see if I can find something to seal up these ac hose ends to stop the leaking, great stuff did...

Tried draining, no difference. Ac does lower the humidity in the bathroom, not where the plants are, rather rapidly when it's on. Also rises rapidly as soon as it turns off. Which makes me believe you were right about the exhaust and it pulling air in via hoses, but also where the board meets...

Got the ac tilted, and hooked up to drain. Guess well see if that makes a difference. With the ac blowing the humidity does go down, albeit slowly. Maybe 1% in 10 mins. But as soon as the compressor kicks off its jumping 2-3% every 10 mins. Sometimes jumps a little more. So maybe you're right...

Honestly that was another thought. The fan pulling air in via the ac hoses. But idk if there is anything I can do about that, I've "modified" the ac with great stuff around hoses to prevent leaks but I know what you mean and idk that there is anything I can do about that. But I've done what...

Link to ac. Idk that it makes a difference but this is what I'm using. https://www.amazon.com/Whynter-ARC-14S-Conditioner-Dehumidifier-Activated/dp/B0028AYQDC/ref=mp_s_a_1_8?keywords=portable+ac&qid=1555085663&s=gateway&sr=8-8 Ok after more reading the manufacturer says itll be less efficient...

Well currently it's not draining, or full. I've got a shower 2ft away I could put the drain hose in, will do that when lights on in an hour. But I just read something that made sense. The ac relies on "advanced self evaporated technology" which uses and recycles moisture. Someone on a site...

Yo I really appreciate your help man. I guess I just thought the ac would do the dehumidifing and there would be no need for my dehuy anymore. Which after days of research SHOULD be true, but it just isnt. I mean every grow site I look at says, oh get an ac or dehuy. I really feel like it's the...

Yeah pretty much, its not hitting my desired temp on the inkbird, but the compressor shuts off I suppose because the on board thermostat says its cold enough. As long as the ac runs for more than 15 mins it starts dropping the humidity, problem is I can't get it to run longer than like 18 mins...

Ok so new problem. After more research the inkbird just supply's power to the unit, wont make the compressor keep running until desired temp. Is there a product that'll do what I want? I guess a thermostat with a sensor? Does that exist?

I'll def take a look, hate to just throw the plant away. Especially for the small amount of moms inbound on it. So problem not quite solved. I'm almost certain the issue lies within my ac being to powerful. Doesnt run for long intervals just short bursts making spikes. Need a smaller ac that...

Yeah man it's already been hell to deal with, I dry in the same room, 4 plants on the line now. They went from almost ready to be bagged to damn near soaked again. Have a wedding cake f2 x jungle cake going in the trash, or fire rather, due to pm. Not a bad infection but I've found a few spots...

Ahh I gotcha. Yeah I'm exhausting out of a window and use the register for the central air as my intake. I did take the register cover off and man you can feel a difference in the amount of being pulled into the room. So honestly I'm not sure if my "vent" was even the issue. Humidity is at 52%...

Man I dont want to jinx anything but I think I got it. Humidity was at 57%, lowest I've seen in 9 days. Dropped 18% in about 15 mins. Pretty sure I goofed up the board that everything exhausts through. I made some jank ass vent type deal for tye ac to hook up to, for some unknown reason, I'm...

I wish 70 was working. I mean my fan game isnt lacking, both exhaust and air movement, but shits not good right now. Not terrible but working on getting there if this isnt curbed soon. Canopy temps run about 78-80 and below canopy 68-70.

Cant leave the bathroom door open because of fucking cats. This was my reasoning for getting a dual hose ac. Thinking its adding air to the room should help exhaust better, but def not. Man I'd love to just use the central air, but not really possible until later in summer. Isnt getting above...
