Thanks that what I was hoping for at this point, I wanted to let the other tops get light but didn’t want to lose the main one
What's up with humidifier directly on top?!
I thought the same thing. The humidifier should optimally be in the bottom and have a fan help spreading the moisture out. Evenly spreading the moisture from bottom with the intake and being extracted at the top with the heat.
I had put it there because I noticed when I left it at the bottom, it would spill out water all over the ground, the instructions said to avoid it pointing downward. Should I leave it pointing downward instead?
If I have the humidifier hose laying downward , it seems to collect water and leak, causing some flooding in the tent. Maybe I could put a small fan on the bottom with the end of the humidifier hose like you said and it will help the water not collect ?
Put the 5-way diffuser nozzle on it and turn the discharge level down to 1 or 2.
Yes that’s been my problem as of late, the exhaust seems to be sucking all the humidity out way too fast. For the plants I have in flower, that’s okay because it’s staying around 75 rh, but for my veg tents, the exhaust seems to be overpowering the humidifier. Is having an exhaust fan necessary during veg? Can I maybe just leave a hole open up top for the hot, humid air to escape?Put the 5-way diffuser nozzle on it and turn the discharge level down to 1 or 2.
You're right to keep it up to drain the water back in the tank, just have to stop it all getting sucked out the exhaust or dumped on the plant.
I would need to have the unit inside the tent to use that diffuser right? This also doesn’t have the 5 way one, only the slanted one (this is the small humidifier (t3)Put the 5-way diffuser nozzle on it and turn the discharge level down to 1 or 2.

What's the RH of the room the tents are in? The inside of the tent is almost always gonna be a little warmer and more humid than the surrounding room, and the faster your exhaust runs, the closer the tent temp and RH are going to be to the room temp and RH. If you can slow down the exhaust fan speed, or use a smaller fan, it'll allow the heat and humidity to build up a bit more inside the tent.
So the room is sitting around 68 rh and 84 f. The tent in question has rh only at 72 right now with the temp at 86 with no exhaust, (actually there is a small fan blowing air into the tent from the top hole) Strange, cause the other tent ( same size) has an exhaust fan blowing air out the top and is able to maintain around 80rh with 86f. Both tents have about the same size plants inside
I'd freak out if my tents RH was at 68 and I'm flowering
I have pretty good air movement in the room, have a 24 inch drum fan moving air around. They’ve been growing great so far, I’m going by VPD. Edit: I just saw that the vpd chart I was using is different than another I found.. Do you use LED?
