A wide, flat container like a dish pan with an airstone in it set in fron tof your fan will raise humidity.
1-4puff, if your temps get any higher you need to add humidity- either way, you should try to drop them back down below 80. BTW is that your dog? I've got an Olde English bulldogge mix with a similar look to her.
Chron, there's a thread cdalled is heat really that bad, where rhizome gets into a neat discussion of osmotic pressure deficit or whatever it's called, basically,getiing your plants to keep the stomata open and continue to transpire by keeping some humidity in the air.
I did skim through it, quality stuff I might add.
I just cant imagine ops conditions really need more moisture? Could someone maybe give me a scenario in which humidity levels should be above 40%? My logic is telling me temps would need to be around 95-100 in order to justify an increase.
I'm obviously pretty new to the wonderful world of cultivation, so pardon any ignorance, I'm schoolin' like a MOFO:cool:
Will do, And yes she is my baby, she is a 1yr 3 mo old American Bulldog (Johnson Breed) she weights about 130lbs and her neck has to be about 25 inches. She is such a GR8 dog!!! Got pics of your baby??

apart from that no other reason
to original poster dont bother raising humidity GOLDEN RULE if its not broke then dont fix it
good luck

I realize this is a year old, but i searched and it came up and i don't want to start a new thread.
My Humidity during these dry winter months is consistently 20-25%. Temps are 65 Night - 78 Day. Normally i'd be stoked about the Low RH but i'm trying to start some seedlings and they don't seem to be appreciative of the dry air.
I've got a fan blowing on a bucket of water and it doesn't seem to do much. my Clones and these seedlings are all being kept in Humidity domes and tupperware with lids on. I pop em open often to exchange air, but if i leave the top off for more than 10 minutes the seedlings start to shrivel and fall over.
My 2 flowering plants aren't totally thrilled about it either. My Northern Lights looks alright, but my white rhino is battling some root rot and looks like it's getting a little dry, could use some perfect conditions.
Any suggestions? I don't want to keep them all closed up if it's going to eventually suffocate them or what have you.
i have a Vicks Humidifier that i could dig out...it's a piece o' garbage though.
Thanks

sorry...forgot the actual question...
Is 20-25% bad? i think it's low, but there is no definitive answer in this thread. Some just want to prevent mold...others want to provide optimal conditions.
I am the latter.

get a bedtime vaporizer at the drug store for $20-30, assuming your grow room isn't a warehouse.
large flat container filled an inch or 2 with wet perlite and re wet when it gets dry
How big is the grow room??? is it like a real room??...if so, fill a crock pot with water and turn it on. check an enthalpy chart to calculate how much moisture you need to put in the air to raise your humidity to around 50%Quote:
