1st grow, help with humidity!
greetings, just wondering if anybody has any advice on this little problem i have. just recently bought a coolstar 400hps, and had placed it in an upstairs closet. had the lights running for about a 3 days, and decided to switch locations after temperatures reached over 95 degrees at some points. had both a window ac running in the room across the grow area, as well as about 5 fans used both for in take and outtake of air. failed.
a change of location helped considerably, the window ac is now in the same room as the grow area, and temperature has decreased to around 70- to 84 degrees.
now the only problem that every time i try to get the humidity up by both a bowl of water and a spray bottle it only seems to help lower the temperature and bring the humidity up around 50-60 %. however after only about 15 minutes it seems like the temperature will only increase to around lower 80's and the humidity will decrease to 40-34%.
very possible that the only reason why it fades so quikly is because of the side entrence wall where the opening is covered by a square fan used to exhaust, and a rotating fan aimed towards the light, bringing in the air from the ac. basically is a slanted wall with a mylar wall floor, and sides. everything is covered and sealed basically besides for the areas where the fans blow in air.
