How do I keep from getting mold from using this , sadly I don’t have a tent/room. So there’s rug floor everywhere that I have spaceTbh. The lil crane one has done all I’ve ever needed. I have a much bigger 2 gal one, but rarely actually needed. I’ve had for a year. I broke the res, rolled off counter-user error, and ordered a replacement at some point. Can order parts directly from crane.
I’d lay something over rug. A rubber mat. But it has a dial anc can run pretty low.How do I keep from getting mold from using this , sadly I don’t have a tent/room. So there’s rug floor everywhere that I have space
I went though a bunch of humidifiers before I started using water with zero PPM.... I have to buy it otherwise the minerals build (impossible to clean ) up inside and algae attaches to the minerals, within weeks green water......and that's not good....I’m trying to get my dry closet good, my temp is at 60 but the humidity is at 40% . Every humidifier I have looked at online all the reviews mainly say they clunk out at like the 3 months to a year, obviously I don’t need it that long (for drying) but would be nice if it wasn’t trash lmfaoI’m probably expecting too much huh
I use a humidifier in my drying room....It dries too fast otherwise. I set it to 55%, some like it higher, I've been led to believe 62% is optimal @62*f.....the buds feel too damp over 60% to me and I worry about mold but 55% @ 68f dries them in 5-6 days...I'd like it cooler but my wife won't let me turn down the house heat to 62*f....lol.....I have to add a couple of fresh leaves to my jars to add a bit of moisture back because they dry too quick and the buds turn to powder when busting up for a joint. A leaf to the jar and buds moisten perfectly.Myself would never put a humidifier in a tent to dry bud.
When it’s too dry here, 30%- 40% in the winter, I dry for couple days for it to crisp up then put it in brown paper grocery bags and fold the top. Works perfect, might take another week in the bags. Obviously checking regularly.

I got this one! How do you maintain yours/how often do you change your wick and how do you know?
Which one do you have and do you do the whole room or just the tent? The one I got after this post is the aircare in the picture it's super powerful I control the whole roomHomedics humidifiers have been sufficient for me. Misting types are better at raising rh and keeping it up at acceptable levels then wick types IMO. Lowes carry’s Homedics humidifier’s.
Set it on a shoe tray and run an occillating fan to circulate the humidified air.How do I keep from getting mold from using this , sadly I don’t have a tent/room. So there’s rug floor everywhere that I have space
I have two. The large one is in a room that’s 15x15 with a 3x3 tent in. Humidifier is on the other opposite side of room from the tent. Tent rh is at 64% right now the rest of the house is around 30%. My other homedics mister is in a 4x8 room. It’s maintaining 58% with some plants in veg. I could raise the rh in there more if needed using that mister.Which one do you have and do you do the whole room or just the tent?

Ty for laying it out for me . Im going to stick with the aircare for now cus i've already returned this "equate" brand one and a "midea" just glad to have my humidity up from 30% my clones weren't happy lolI have two.

The big mister is a couple gallons and has two tanks. The smaller is about a gallon and a half. Both will run for 12hr + between fills. They are a little pricey though but they do the job.
the wick lasts about 60 days or so depending on usage and water quality, you'll know when its time because its doesnt raise RH much anymore and its caked with minerals. when i change the wick i scrub the tub with vinegar and rinse with water. after each grow i clean the top and fan blades; a pressure sprayer outside makes this easier. just let it dry for a couple days before using again.I got this one!

I ended up purchasing (2) of the Levoit 300S w/6L Capacity units. After the first I immediately purchased another for the house, which now ended up in Green Room too. So I'd say they are worth a try about $80 on AMZ. I'm very knew to growing and thats where this unit helps someone like me. Its WiFi and works w/Alexa. What I like about this it is that its web based. I can actually turn on/off set levels, timers, auto, small light, sleep mode etc from anywhere in the world. This helps me keep the climate under control even when away from home. Which I've had some crazy temp swings between day and night with my new 4x8'. This coupled with a cheap Govee WiFi thermometer/hygrometers and an AC Infinity Wireless Fan Controllers allows me what I would say a very interactive experience as the graphic user interface of these apps are pretty good these days, better then sitting in front of the units or controllers and adjusting ea. manually. Plus the fact that I have several tents, all with separate thermometers/hygrometers and Fan Controllers and the humidifiers its nice to be able to look at each very quickly without having to move about in a room or between tents. Just my 2 cents and a bit of a ramble!I’m trying to get my dry closet good, my temp is at 60 but the humidity is at 40% .
