dehumidifier in a not-sealed room is it doing anything?

[RMCG]

What about a lung room with the dehuey in there (pull from outside, into lung room, dehumidify as much as possible) then intake into your room?

Might have to slow down the exchange of the room to give it time to drop the RH in the lung room, but garbage in = garbage out.

thats a great idea - like maybe you could set up a tent and draw air from your room

im unable to edit this post!!!!!! WHY?

No surprise, that the electric bill is kicking your ass. Running a dehumidifier with constant air intake is like emptying the ocean with a teaspoon.

Here's a tip. Indoor growing is insanely expensive and most grows waste most of the power they consume.

Do a vertical setup and start getting closer to 3 pounds per light or you are wasting your money on electricity. And get some co2 gear if you want to use the dehumidifier.

build a lung room as suggested...and delete your location.....asap.

so would you put your intake fan on a 15 minute timer or would you be worried mold might start

i dont care about electricty its about not getting mold

You might want to go smaller so you can control your environment. They make inline heaters for ducts. I grow with 75% rh so you are not far off. A lung room was a good idea,a tent inside your room was another. If you can come up with enough funtickets I would continue to grow. There are too many crappy growers out there putting crap in with their meds.
Ask logic to clean up your mistake. Suerte JK

Ya wow man I would totally have this whole thread removed.. You just posted your street name and the city you live in.. The street you live on isn't that long.. pigs shouldn't have any problem finding you if they wanted. Id go with your instincts and just stop growing and get it from other farmers.
