There are some factors on How high up to keep lights I’ve always gone off of putting my hand at canopy level for a few and if it gets too hot it’s too close but running hoods with constant air flow I’ve been able to get pretty close but you have to make sure you have enough distance for growth. I run botanicare pro blend grow and bloom with cal mag silica blast, hydro guard and I’ll use advanced nutrients bud factor x and bud candy in bloom

your humidifier is not working as well at night when the temps drop under 75 that's only if your flowering because spikes do cause pm

So I went to one of my buddies and picked up a bigger dehumidifier and a couple of humidifiers. I have an inkbird humidity controller coming tomorrow that I’m hoping will work. I’m struggling with low humidity. Any advice to help with that? Also if I wanted to get an environment controller with ac and heat what would be the best route to go with that?

Might want to consider getting 6k MH bulbs for veg. Running HPS now will make them stretch more than you want? Really only need to run HPS during flower weeks 3-7

I went ahead and ordered the ink bird climate controller should be in tomorrow. I have a heater. Any input as to the brand that would work best for portable ac?

Sorry for any confusion I have the inkbird humidity controller I hooked it up yesterday. I’m struggling with low humidity in my room now. My exhaust fans kick on with the heat and they are sucking my humidifiers out when they do. So I’m figuring if I can combat heat before it reaches the exhaust fans limits I can keep all in check.
