i only have problem when the lights go off, temp drops to around 16c-20c and my humidity rises to around 90-95%, when my light comes on the humidity drop and is around 50-60%. i need to drop my humidity during the dark period not the light period. :)
thanks anyway!

time for quick report on my grow, am not all happy this morning the temps in the growroom hit an all time high 39c. so i took all the fans down and the light, made some more inlet holes and shortend the duct workto minimum.
the where placed in black bags for the time it took me to sort and clean everything.
thinking of adding i pc fan to the inlet, that should help!
everything in the growroom got a good clean with weak anti-bac solution, and then left to dry.
since i have been leaving my oc fan and ext fan on 24/7, my humidity droped to decent level of 65% during the dark period,and down to 50% when there on.

now the plants,
NL#1 is sticky very stick lol, and the smell is something weird........ like sweet spice!
am going to give her 1 more week and the i start to flush using plain water.
the pistils are starting to change colour to a light orange, about 20% are changing.

NL#2! what can i say SLOW, not tric production from what i can see, and very leafy!
all the pistil it does have are a nice fuzzy white colour.

how about some pics? lol :)
feel free to comment

happy growing all!!!!!!

Am amazed at the speed at which this grow has gone, mainly NL#1 and its hybrid vigor. :)
NL#2 is coming along nicely now and is pushing out more bud daily.

after adding more holes and a pc fan, and some ducting to the plant level from the pc fan my temps have drop to a acceptble 28c.:mrgreen:
my hygrometer was not working, so i changed it and the humidity is at 40% when the lights are on and 55-60% when there off.

happy growing all
