Hello RIU. Fishing4life here and Im back for some more general help on mu heat issue. At the beginnig of my grow i had this where it was to low and humidity aswell. Welll Im back with the opposite question.
What is the best way to lower the heat temps in my small 2x4x5 grow tent. Im lacking room now tho.
I recently flipped from 18/6 light schedule to a 12/12 schedule. I installed a dehumidifier to ballance out my humidity wich was causing lots of heat so i made a custum pc to go around the out port of the dehumidifier and up and out my tent. Thats helped significantly but im still at 28°c ish, 2° higher then what i had it set at in veg. I also put in another 6inch passive intake and a 4 inch aswell with fans blowing from outside into the passive intake.
So far my humidity loeveks are great, 47%plus or minus since inhave a controller set and dehumidifier going all the time. (Does not alow to be shut on and off from controller, as you have to puch the power on button for it to come on once power is turned off to dehumidifier).
I cant rely on the basement room temps and hums as they realy fluctuate as the weathrr gets warmer and cooler with outside temps. Its a basement and the concrete generaly gives off moiture in high temp times.
Im stumped on what else i can do without an a/c. Should i remove intakes? Should i remove or add something else, maybe an ice box thats pulled in from intake fan?
I think i covered everything that ive done or tried and I need help. I DONT WANNA LOSE WHAT IVE ACCOMPLISHED SO FAR IN MANIFOLDING MY PLANTS. Any info/sugestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advanve. F4L
(P.S. , I deleted my pics but my grow journal has them showing what ive done and what it lools like as of yeaterday)
