You want them under and through the canopy I've got one large one blowing underneath
I've got 1 12" blowing air underneath, no room for more.You want them under and through the canopy imo

Your daughter done good.I miss my hydro for growth... had to toss this grow cause it got stupid... had to leave town at 2 weeks veg when I should have been flipping. My daughter looked after it and came home to this jungle.
First was Dec.4/2019, the second was Jan 2/2020 just veg. Aboit 4 weeks Was a real shame to hack that and toss it but I didn't wanna fight the roots if I cut down and flipped.
I pulled that system out and did a 10x7 now. Yeah that hydro system was pretty easy to look after. Don't think she has ever grown a cactus before that lol.Your daughter done good.
You need a bigger room and bigger pails
See the leaf temp do I take that from top of the canopy or a bit lower down, the reading im getting at the top is 1-2 degree c cooler than room temp.I really can't stress enough room temps and leaf temps.... its absolutely not the same and you can have a difference of up to 10+F of leaf temps under the same room temps depending on airflow, type of lighting, co2, humidity, root temps and almost anything environmental.
Day night temps have more to do with internode spacing than anything else.
Just saying.
Yeah should be cooler than air temp... generally the tops to keep them from getting to high... but multiple readings averaged gives a good overall idea of plant temps. They will almost always be highest closest to the lights.See the leaf temp do I take that from top of the canopy or a bit lower down, the reading im getting at the top is 1-2 degree c cooler than room temp.
Or my ir thermometer is giving false readings
I read mine in the flower room this past hour. Room temp was 78.4 and leaf temp with a cheap harbor freight temp gun was 74.3See the leaf temp do I take that from top of the canopy or a bit lower down, the reading im getting at the top is 1-2 degree c cooler than room temp.

Yeah thats very typical under LED. It also impacts your actual VPD which would actually be about 1.3I read mine in the flower room this past hour. Room temp was 78.4 and leaf temp with a cheap harbor freight temp gun was 74.3View attachment 1122163
Under 4 1000wt hpsYeah thats very typical under LED. It also impacts your actual VPD
Must be a decent distance between the lights with good airflow... tanspiration rates are a bit higher from the lower humidity likely also....Under 4 1000wt hps

A perfect example of why room temps mean nothing and leaf tenps matter.

Honestly once you figure your room out you just duplicate it... its nice to have when starting out or a commercial grower but really don't wanna get to a point you spend a shit ton of time splitting hairs.I'm needing to get something like this to record everything.

A lot depends on sensor placement also.. I see more often than not the sensors are not properly placed. Add in microclimates and the room readings can become even more skewed.
Imo take the tune to learn the things that affect it and how. You will be far better off.
Cool... as long as the aren't to high and reasonable over 70f it's all good the rest is fine tuning.I've got my sensors at canopy height on bothe sides of tent so should be kindy accurate. I'm just playing about with temps and that to see whats best without having either heater on constant or dehumidifier. Once I've got it sussed I'll put graph up 4 you to see. Cheers
I've got it sitting at this just nowDid a bit of a write here that touches on some of that. But again it's a guide not a hard rule and wouldn't split haors over it.
VPD (vapor pressure deficit)
Ok i was gonna sit down and write out a whole article but i have been lazy so instead instead I'm going to copy paste because im lazy. This is not my work so let start. You may find this very long but its worth the read. Some may want to skip ahead. I have added here and there to what i feel is...www.thcfarmer.com

Don't kill yourself over it.. temps are far far more important than humidity. Remember VPD is only a goal not a must.I've got it sitting at this just now
I think I've finally got it. Had to leave my tent door open, I couldn't get it right with it shut so I've got a grow teom lol. Been at this for about an hour kindy steady
I got up for my lights turning on and my temp was 19 but humidity was 60%, I'm guessing its because tent door is wide open and hasn't any negative pressure as the humidity in my room was only 44%. I'm stuck at what to doDon't kill yourself over it.. temps are far far more important than humidity. Remember VPD is only a goal not a must.
Since I've done vpd they've had soo much new growth on top buds are getting bigger everytime I look. Thanks appreciate it.Did a bit of a write here that touches on some of that. But again it's a guide not a hard rule and wouldn't split haors over it.

Yeah it really does help... #1 get the right leaf temls #2 adjust the RH to meet VPD.Since I've done vpd they've had soo much new growth on top buds are getting bigger everytime I look. Thanks appreciate it.
