Coffee Tries To Grow Again

[Jungle Joseph]

Yeah sounds about right do you need to borrow the dolly? Lol

LoL, maybe a small crane?
I did think ahead a little bit and sat her on a fire-grate with some bits of wood holding it up so she's off the ground. It means I can remove the tray without too much trouble as well, to get rid of any excess water.

Been lurking around your journal, your Grand Daddy Purple is looking good!

I see your looking for a dehumidifier, I run one in my tent and it’s made a huge difference keeping the humidity under control. I bought mine second hand from Facebook marketplace, it’s been running perfectly for about 2 years now. That being said I would recommend looking for a second hand dehumidifier, you can get one that would normally cost over $300 for half that.

You can have higher humidity in your grow space up to 75% as long as it stays consistent, having big swings in humidity is asking for issues.

Thanks man! I’m looking but I’ll take another look at marketplace thank you. That’s interesting about the humidity thing though I didn’t know that.

Did a super crop on Grand Daddy to try to level both bud sites think it turned out pretty well

 

[TwelveCoffee]

She’s starting to get little buds so Friday morning she’s going outside going to do it 2 hrs before the light comes on which should take it to 14/10 hopefully she doesn’t herm

I'm confused. Have you flipped this already?

Ya she’s been 12/12 for two weeks or so now that’s why I was freaking about the dehumidifier but I don’t think I’ll have money in time so outside is next best option

 

[InTheShed]

Oh okay, thanks! What's the RH in the room the tent is in during lights out? Also in the high 80s?

Sorry man was rushing there didn’t mean to sound rude if I did. Forgot to check the room rh but I’m assuming it’s about the same if not a little less. Before I go to bed I’ve been opening the door to bring it down in the tent because it’ll shoot back to 90 if I don’t it’s been floating around 79-80% when open didn’t get to defoliate today either

That is one damp basement! If you can get drier air in there from outside somehow that would be great. You did mention something about a window once but I don't recall what the issue was with it. No need to repeat the info if you've already exhausted all the possibilities short of a correctly-sized dehuey.

 

[TwelveCoffee]

Only other option I have left I think is to rig a small AC unit to the tent just don’t know how I’d redirect the the air to one spot and window might work just worried about flooding alright time to work talk to you around 6 and thanks again Shed!

 

[InTheShed]

Can you get the intake hose to the window? It's gotta be lower humidity outside no? You're pretty far from Florida.

Have a good day at work!

That's what I got. Or turn the filter up on high but then tent will press in I put rod to prevent that.

I think he should have positive pressure in the tent if he can get lower RH air directly from outside. Has the advantage of making more room in there!

Yep. Especial if shade area. Also help cool or heat up. With thermal.

Thanks smoke break lol, if I can get a longer length was using it as a exhaust, if I can get two lengths then I can put both intake and exhaust in the window but if it’s the same window won’t they leach air with each other?

If your intake is from the outside it's fine to exhaust into the room.

If they're right next to each other and with identical fans, I'm sure there would be crosstalk between them at the window, but the air coming out will just be outside air plus whatever the plants put out, so the crosstalk will be less significant.

Alright I’ll see if I can pick up the supplies on Friday was a little worried not planning on using carbon filters I don’t mind the smell but didn’t want it shooting out pot smells where the neighbourhood kids play the parents are genius they let them play soccer in a little courtyard surrounded by windows lmao my dad would have killed me

 

[InTheShed]

Then definitely exhaust into the room!

Haha yup as much as it’s legal don’t want no complaints and thanks Shed if I didn’t say it before I do appreciate it just wish I could have more of a budget to do it proper
