I get my humidifiers at second hand stores, One called Value Village is/was my favorite store for my grow room equipment. Fan, $3-$4. humidifiers $7-$9 clip on side lights $ 3--$4 pots, hoses, Jars for curing, and on and on. New is nice but a used humidifier and CLR or bleach to clean is just as good. I know the world has stopped but if it ever gets rolling again.
Control the humidity in the room the tent is in. Does no good to humidify the tent when you are pulling in dry air and pumping the humidity out.
Thats a better gadget that I have, I was looking cheap of course and I've had to guess at the timing rather than have a probe read it and act.
Very affordable too and I believe you can calibrated it also.
+1 on the distilled or RO water. They extend the life 10 fold easy also
The ones I've had need regular maintenance a little CLR does a good job. Some of them have such an odd design with molded plastic shapes inside that are hard to get to to clean properly. I've never paid over $7.99 - 30% seniors discount lol. I was proud of my humidifiers being so cheap until I read here the heated humidifiers are not the recommended way to raise humidity, something about spreading bacteria & molds easier. There went 2 of my humidifiers, back to V.V. with them and buy another couple.
I got the same thing from wayfair for 90
That’s the kind of simple, yet important information I am looking for. Is it safe to say the same with dehumidifiers? Inside tent or inside grow room? I’m in my garage and another person suggested to dehum outside the tent as well.
He is right. Control the room the tent is in not the tent itself. The other important part is a good amount of air exchange I like the cloudline fans for bang for buck reasons. You can set them to adjust to temp and humidity in the tent and run variable speed.
I feel so stupid, i have had mine in my grow tent wondering why it was so difficult to control it, ive had to run mine 24/7 since i got it
I am only commenting on your used equip ethos. I am so tired of the just toss it dont fix it mantra in the world. I hope you are a young person so you can carry this forward.
Hi, no not young, I wish that was the case. Just old and cheap .I am only commenting on your used equip ethos. I am so tired of the just toss it dont fix it mantra in the world. I hope you are a young person so you can carry this forward.
Thank you thank you! I was going a bit nuts on what to purchase and understanding my grow room environment VPD needs.
