thats was funny!!!!! u said I'm posting mine so u post yours and then u post those. thats funny friend!!!!! and u talk about like your some big shot. i get the joke bro. thats pretty funny shit...
I'm glad you liked it.
Do you normally blow Joe first
or is it the other way round???
 
The link wouldn't work but I found it as a Google - It's widely available in the UK
Amazon has about 30 different offers for it.
Is it essentially the same as the SILICON sachets that are placed in packages to absorb moisture???
Yes sir... Same concept. Effective, but definitely not a final solution. It'll take your RH down quite a bit. With all the fans you got going, i imagine circulation in the tent is optimal and if you can get down under 70, I'd give you great odds for or a successful full term crop. Anyways, It wouldn't hurt to try... Just a few quid. Another option is to chop early.

How many times can the humidity crystals be re-used...?
I don't want to resort to an early chop.
Sacrificing some of the yield isn't too bad
but the plants potency comes in the final weeks.

This is a thread for grown ups
and actual growers.
Dude in all fairness you're the one posting shit like, "what do strain names mean? what's a cheese? what's a dawg?" "how do I dehumidify" etc etc. Then you posted those pics. Ouch. Kind of ironic....Don't ya think"

It's like raaaaaiaiaiiaian on your wedding day......

OK, then
EXplain WHY the names CHEESE and DAWG are used?
I don't mean on a semantics, philological level (because I'm quite certain you don't know what those words mean)
but the genetics.
Ironically, the Cheese dog thread created some real debate.
But you'd have to understand the actual points raised, to join in/

This thread was about dehumidifiers and the usual suspects turn it into a playground brawl.
The adults have all scattered, the thread is derailed.

But it's made it clear who contributes to threads
and who are basically children, always trying to cause arguments.

I've had 4 PM's all saying the same thing
and all advising me to just walk away.

You cannot win an internet argument against a shut in.
And when 3 or 4 losers start to back each other up
It's safety in numbers for cowards, they'll stick together for survival.

hey england, weren't you the one who was arguing about intake sizing a few weeks back with Jrainman because you didn't understand how to properly size it?

and when you were told how to you basically said we were stupid?


So instead of trying to help him remedy his situation, spout off at him causing another 3-4page back and forth of wits (or lack there of).


NoE. There really isn't much else to do other than invest in a dehumidifier if YOU are concerned your RH is too high.

I've experienced bud rot with an ambient RH reading of 65%. Little did I know at that time that ongst the plants it was upwards of +75% RH.

In your 4x4 tent to control humidity you would need a minimum of 10L per day extraction.

In your 4x8 you'd need approx 20L a day extraction.

ALDI had a good offer a few weeks back on a 20L with continuous drain etc i think it was £138.


If your RH doesn't exceed 65% regardless of day or night then with plenty of air movement you should be ok.

Doesn't anyone actually think that NoE is actually doing a pretty Stella job for his first grow.


I know I do.


But then I am the guy who has helped him out to this stage.


His passive intake information came from me.

I use 2-3x the exhaust spigot size. It has been explained in a few articles in URBAN GARDEN MAGAZINE but unfortunately UGM has now ceased publishing.


Granted 2-3x the size of your exhaust is not the optimum as stated in the graphs etc you showed joe, however though most people think that a full room air exchange every 1- 3 minutes is enough.

Where as in actuality its 1-3 air exchanges per minute. Anything over 3x in a minute and you need to use AC to cool your grow.


So there are alot of different ideals about grow rooms and setups and vents and exhausts etc.

Cheers J,
But I think most people can see the repeated patterns of the same small group of people
derailing threads and attempting to ostracize particular individuals.
I've had 5 PM's from 5 different people that all say the same things
and point me at certain threads as confirmation.


Don't worry about these three,
I'm not finshaggy, I can see what they are.
And I have simply placed an 'ignore' command over Joe.

My Humidity
I cannot afford a dehumidifier until this crop is finished,
I've added a 3rd fan, but this one is below the canopy.
It's reduced the RH from a max of 88%
to a max of 76% with a dark cycle average of 68%.

I'll buy a 20lt dehumidifier for the 8 x 4
i'll not need one for the 4 x 4 because it's being devoted to VEG
and humidity is better high.

I'm only using about 6 x 4 of the 8 x 4 floor space.
With the remainder I can fit in all kinds of useful stuff.

well, if you had read his arrogant self centered yay for me posts that came prior perhaps you would understand. Or how much of an ass he was acting like several weeks prior in another thread on the passive intake sizing.

and I DID try to help him...both times. Before I started trolling him. I only started with the heckling BECAUSE of his pigheaded attitude.
towards me and several others with far greater experience in growing and also matters hvac. Not just in this thread. He's a moron with very little hope of furthering his growing hobby with a mindset like this

I mean...this guy sounds like finshaggy sometimes. WIth no respect whatsoever for those with more knowledge than he. In fact he likes to belittle those who present info. he can't wrap his head around.


fuckem

and as far as there being nothing else you can do about rh....You are wrong jondamon. If your intake/exhaust sizing is correct. and your ambient rh( or outside rh) is within reason (<80%) there is absolutely no reason you would need a dehumidifier......i ran for years and years and years before going sealed with no dehumidifier. and it gets humid as hell around here @ times.

hope you understand this. You seem like a pretty cool guy in some of your other posts.

the info I posted is nothing more than BASIC duct sizing as relating to airflow. It was put together for the hvac field and pertains DIRECTLY to this subject as well.

edit: and if your intake/exhaust sizing is not correct you are not getting the air exchanges/minute you think you are. The fan is working harder and is pushing less.....this is a FACT

No, you can't reuse the crystals, they dissolve. You should only need one 14 oz. hanging bag to get you through the last push for this grow though. No need to re-use them.
