Humidty??

im having a problom keeping my humidty up in my grow closet i have a 400w halide for lighting about 16 inches from the seedlings they ar about a week old i have a 260cfm fan for exhaust and a 80 cfm fan pumping air in from outside i also a fan blowing constantly over the plants and i put a humidifier in the closet on full blast and i cant get over 30% humidity in the closet am i doing something wrong any help would be great thanks

thats a little low for veg but I wouldnt worry about it. just veg them and when you start to flower thats were you want your RH at anyway

So being that low wont effect anything? sometimes it gets down to 20%

I veg in a walk in closet and my R/H is at 35% they do great.I would take out the humidifier raise your 400 watt up pretty high I can take a pic of mine if you like. I veg with 2 400's I bet your temp is at like 86 am I right. dont trip off that either just want to get it down to 78 to 80 when your flowering

the fans probably dissipate a lot of the humidity... just turn the fan on low.

unless your humidifier is complete garbage or your room is bigger than about 40-50 ft2 you should be able to keep humidity up in the 70s.

i have a humidifier going in my grow closet with a low fan, and i'd guess the humidity is @ 70 or 80% (this is for seedlings).

ya that humidity level is no prob, when they get bigger the humidity will increase

Yeah my temp gets right around 85 to 88 in the daytime. How high would you suggest i go up with the light?

Thanks everyone for your advice im not as worried now

I would go about 2 and a half feet. it will keep them healthy and give them a good stretch

Maybe a few pics of your setup would be nice
