4x4 tent.
480w kingbrite light
6 plants
5 gallon fabric pots
1:3 promix and perlite
General hydroponics nutes
5 weeks into flower
Ok lately I’ve got pretty much a sealed tent. Not much of an intake air but I do got a weak 6” exhaust fan with a carbon filter. Usually the tent is imploded inwards and has a negative pressure. Perfect. Usually the tent is 35-40% RH at the most.
My basement is also around 35%. I have like 5 humidity meters.
Here’s where it gets weird. I decided to open a vent flap up a little on the bottom of the tent for more intake air. Just to see... and an hour or so later the basement stunk like weed and the tent humidity was 60%. How?
Did opening the flap totally render my little struggling exhaust fan useless and the humidity raised from the plants?
They were watered 4 days ago and are due for water in 2-3 days
Pic: right gauge is the tents numbers. The left is my basement
