600 HPS Cool Tube Grow Light System
hm that curve is interesting, makes misting them seem pointless heh. i will definitely be getting a new hygrometer the one i have is beat to crap and probably off a little.
"Seems high temp alone may have been enough to control the RH." and it is a drrryyyy heat but maybe the fact that i liveo n a lake has something to do the humidity issues.
im gonna go look at these little dehumidifiers and wallmart a/c's today, ive got space in the closet above on a ledge i could stick them..
but theyd probably be more efficient at the bottom on the floor i would assume...guesss it depends on how big they are and loudness.
ug gotta go to wallmart....the HORROR

Good thread, guys. Good stuff for those looking to use cool tubes. In fact, I had a couple questions, and so far they have pretty much all been answered. I do have a couple things to ask/add about piping in a/c air thru your cool tubes...but unfortunately, I have not the time to type it all out right at the moment, so I'll have to come back later and add...when this thread reaches 15 pages. :eek: lol...

haha please do tell before it gets to 15 pages, my sanity will be gone by then.
"I've run CO2 before, but always have had dedicated aircon units set for about 85F, which dealt with the humidity- or so I thought. Seems high temp alone may have been enough to control the RH... but these ops were 8 and 10kW, impossible in the spaces used without aircon, so I don't have a comparison base."
do you have a thread on this setup you had?

This thread is actually an insidious plot to see which goes first - your money or your sanity. There's actually a pool going on another thread. :S2:

Thanks for that, PC!
I think the problem had to do with me being a new user here. Yesterday, "Registered+" started appearing under my username and the "image" button now appears in my WYSIWYG editor.
I have gone around the board looking for user policies, but can't find out what the breakpoint is for giving a user img posting privs, whether that's post count or reputation points. Someone will know and chime in, I'm sure. :)

Would put it up high in the room (mine's within a foot of the ceiling)- warm air both rises and holds more water than cooler air... but enough circ fans in your room, the air will be pretty well homogenised and it won't really matter where it is.
The only downside to those portable aircon units is that even though they dump their heat via a roughly 4" vent duct (usually like dryer vent), that tube has to lead outside the op's airmass for the a/c unit to do anything at all. The upside is you get free distilled water for your plants. :)

I had already told you when you first posted that question in the Feedback/Suggestions section, Al B. I told you you'd have to have 50 posts. :) You now have that. Go back and read that post I made to ya, man. :)
Looking forward to the Cloning thread. Maybe it'll get Stickied.

Not on those ops. I was brought in as a consultant on those and they're not mine to photograph or talk too much about.
My own op doesn't have CO2 at the moment.
