cheers all

just put a bucket of water in the grow space and put a fan blowing across the surface. you could even get a cheap airpump at walmart($5) and put an airstone in the bucket as well.

Will a humidifier cause problems with the lamp bulb due to moisture in the air?

i never had issues with too low humidty so i never used a humdifier. i'm sure someone has some experience with it and will have an answer.

i could be wong but i don't think you need to add as much humidty as a humidifier could add. rh 50-60 for veg and 30-40 for flower would be acceptable

Use a Humidifier, man. Get the rh up to like 50%.

I GARUNTEE YOU WILL SEE A DIFFERENCE!
As for affecting your lights, no way. You SHOULD have proper air exchange, which prevents that moisture buildup, especially since the lights are so hot anyway.

Again, check out any books by Jorge Cervantes or Ed Rosenthal.
Good luck, Dude!

Will get a humidifier sorted, I hadn't setup my extractor setup with filter so I did that last night but temp was still 32%c and 10% humidity this morning. Put a few bowls of water by the plants so the fan will hit it.

Thanks for the help.

Put a bowl of water in the room.

Weird, put 2 bowls of water getting blown by the fan, and put a wet towel in the growroom but my humidity will not raise above 10-20%......

KHAN..

Are you going just on numbers or do your plants look bad?
Humidity can be a serious problem... the plant can grow in a very dry climate.. but the opposite . a lot of humidity can cause all sorts of problems... make sure you have good air flow if you are going to raise your humidity... especially if you are going to use a humidifier

...

If you are using HID.... a bucket of water near the light should raise the humidity... more than enough in a closest size room...

: )

You'd think so but it doesn't seem to be......

A bucket of water will only rise by 10-15% at most. You can't regulate a bucket but you can a fogger of humidifier and control is what you need.

Would it be bad to put my plants in the running NFT system to try to get the humidity up? Can I put them in with just PHP water or will it drown them since the roots arn't developed? (even with liquid oxygen)

They're just over 2 weeks old and the roots are just properly developing, not everywhere...
