Helps prevent condensation on the outside of the buckets.
If your UC is condensating then your humidity is pretty high, unless you are running your UC very cold. If you lower the humidity in your garden you can eliminate the condensation problem. Basically your UC is below dew point. Here is a dew point calculator you can use to find out exactly what your humidity needs to be. My guess it that your humidity level is above 65%.

Some examples
80 degree room x 65% humidity x dew point of 68
78 degree room x 65% humidity x dew point of 66
78 degree room x 55% humidity x dew point of 61 (my settings)
To get your chilled water lines for your coils to stop condensating you will need to adjust your dew point (by adjusting humidity) to just above the chiller setpoint. For me my chiller is set at 62 degrees...no condensation anywhere.
Don't trust cheap humidistats, they are very unrelaible. With that calcualtor if you know your room temp and the water temp that you just start to see condensation then you can figure out exactly and accurately what your humidity is.
