Hey everyone, I live in Australia and I'm a first time grower, plants just started to flower and ever since I started growing I've had issues with humidity and temperature,
The room my tent is in can reach up to 90% humidity, I purchased a relatively expensive dehumidifier, it was rated for a room 2x - 3x the size of the room it's in and I can't get the humidity below 60% on a good day.
Now in saying this, one bad consequence the dehumidifier has had is it runs up the temperature in the room, so as a result my tent is sitting at 65% humidity and 28-30c(82-86f) temps, during the day when lights are off I dont run the dehumidifier to try and save on electricity as it's quite expensive to run and humidity will go back to 70%+.
I really need some good ideas here as I am stumped on what to do, using a VPD chart it says I am close to the danger zone with these readings, almost no transpiration and risk of disease.
Thanks in advance and sorry for the long post.
