Hey everyone,

Growing in 5 gallon buckets, indoors, soilless mix, 1000W MH/HPS, room is 8x10 with 7 foot ceilings, 80cfm bathroom fan right over the light, 16" oscillating fan blowing on the baby's. Plants are White Widow, Tap water PH is 6.7 and 120PPM. Room temp is 87.8 degrees and the humidity is 28%, and if i understand right, proper Humidity should be somewhere around 50%? Humidifier from Walmart, Kmart?

Thanks everyone,
Sellncars

No, I don't think you need a humidifier. You need more air circulation. If you let more fresh air in as well as extracting out, your humidity will change, and your temperature should drop. 88F is just too high, you want to be around 75F. Once you have the temperature down, then check your humidity.
