If you're growing in a small space (cabinet, closet), put a bowl of rice in there. If you're working with a larger space (over 9 square feet), you'll need to buy a dehumidifier.

If don't want to spend the money on the dehumidifer get some tubs of damp rid, it is reuseable so it is only a one time investment for awhile. This will work better than the rice, which I have used before also. Good Luck :weed:

It would take about 8 pounds of rice for a 20-30 sqare foot room. You could also go with silica gel or salt, but in the long run, if you have a large space and have humdity problems once in a while a humidifier-dehumidifier is a good investment.

Mold can start growing on buds. If the mold is not taken care of, half of your yield can get infested.

Doc is right about that I have lost one plant already to it this year and the cola and some buds off of another. I grow outside and once it starts on a plant it is very hard to stop, lots of examinations and no fear of the scissor or you can ruin all of your crop. The more dense the buds the easier it is for the mold to start. Good Luck
