FOR SOME REASON, I CAN'T GET THE TEMPS WHERE THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE. RIGHT NOW THE INSIDE OF THE TENT IS 32.9C & HUMIDITY IS 38%. I THINK THAT IS WHY IS IS GROWING SLOW.
I HAVE A INTAKE/EXHAUST FAN 80CFM SETUP TO WHERE IT IS SUCKING THE AIR. IT'S NEAR THE TOP OF THE TENT. BUT I DON'T HAVE THE SILVER DUCTING THINGY BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE SPACE FOR IT WHERE MY TENT IS.
I ALSO HAVE ANOTHER FAN BLOWING DOWN ON TOP OF THE LIGHTS & PLANT, BUT THAT FAN EVEN ON HIGH SPEED ISN'T THAT GREAT. i'M GONNA HAVE TO GO BUY A OSCILLATING FAN.
ANY TIPS ON HOW I CAN MAINTAIN THE CORRECT TEMPERATURE & HUMIDITY?
i'VE LOOKED FOR SOME, BUT CAN'T FIND. ANYONE'S HELP IS VERY APPRECIATED.
i'm only growing 1 plant in there. small tent. 1' 4" x 1' 4" x 3' 11".

sounds like you need to have more venting in there, like a duct to pull the hot air out and away from the plants.

Personally, the heat thing is one of the main reasons why I don't really like the tent setup. Seems like the temperature can be too tricky to control.

Is it just me or does the humidity seem a little low to anyone else considering how high the temperature is? To me, I would think the plants would be baking in there and the humidity would be collecting in the air, right?

Maybe you need to add more water to your schedule since the plants aren't respirating a bit more? Just sounds like something is off here. :bigjoint:

i have one intake/exhaust fan set up in there now. it's set up suck the air from the tent and fan it outside, not the best one, but it was all i could afford. Does it really matter if i don't have that silver ducting? For now there is no smell or anything, and i just don't have room for it.
i just got a way better fan to have inside the tent blowing cooler air on the lights and plant. and on the side, out of the tent, i have the fan i had previously inside the tent blowing what air it gives thru these side flap thingy's.
I can't check the temp or humidity right now cuz she is sleeping, but after 9 i'll be able to say.
What will best work as a type of humidifier to control the moisture/humidity in the air?
