1. Let’s start with the fact that I am doing this for the very first time.

2. Specs:
Heater - DeLonghi Oil Radioator.
Humidifier- UltraSonic pure guardian humidifier.
Dehumidifier- Midea(30 pint, not on since not struggling with humidity)
Lights- 2 600w led lights veg/bloom switches both on 24/0 light schedule.
Exhaust and intake- Vivosun 203 CFM both Intake and exhaust plus carbon filter for exhaust.
Tent- Vivosun 60”x60x80”

Trying to figure out ways to get my humidity a little higher I’ve tried everything bowls clothes etc it just dries out! I’ll post some pics how my little ones are doing!

As well my exhaust fan is running 24/7 as well waiting for heat thingy from inkbird to set timer on for when it gets too hot to start sucking air out. Help

You shouldn’t need a intake fan or not much of one. The exhaust will pull air through the intake and any leaks(when tent is closed) to ensure EVERYTHING coming out, gets pulled through the filter. You want the sides of your tent sucked in a bit, play with the opening to regulate airflow. Your humidity should come up a little.
I’d back that light off some, I see a lil curl starting!

Backed up my light for about 5-10”! Reason why I don’t run my exhaust fan is as soon as I turn it on my humidity drops for like 15% and I can’t get it higher than 30% even when temps are 77 F - 84F. I’ve notice I can get the most humidity when the temp is at 77 and my humidity is at 40% can’t get past the 40% mark. Humidity is 30% at 82 F

Thats a good idea,that will suck humidity through the openings of the tent.I have the same problem.
I think its the hot dry air that the leds are blowing out that makes it so hard to keep humidity up.
ill second that you dont need an intake fan.

And slow down your exhaust fan with a speed control

Okay so I have my exhaust fan setup at medium speed and hooked onto the inkbird heat and cooling control! Exhaust fans works until temp is 25 Celsius and then shuts off, I did turn off my intake fan and just opened vents for the tent! Humidity went up to 65% in no time so that’s a step forward!
