Been to Sutherlands a few times for odds and ends, wiring up a new boat with trolling motor, depth finder, bilge pump, battery monitor. Need it to warm up so I can go to fishing. Welded up a boat lift and probably get it installed next week. Wanted to tag trailer, that out since DMV is shut down.

I'm about to break down and buy one for the room my tent is in so the air going in the tent will be drier, but it's going to suck this summer because those things put out a lot of heat and I sleep in there.
I'm only legally allowed to have six plants in flower, so that's what I chose but I did not expect them to bush out so much. Next time I'll just do four and that should help with the humidity quite a bit.
I think you might be spot on the VPD with those temps and 62-66% humidity. At least according to the chart.
Do you have a fan under the canopy? Maybe move some of the air and humidity sitting down there? Clean up the under growth to get rid of some of the humidity sitting under the canopy? You should be good to go to clean up the under growth like you were main lining up to 20-25 or so days in flower. Maybe that could help your concerns on humidity.
But I think you probably okay at those temps and humidity. They are obviously loving what you are giving them and doing to them. So times it could be just better to wait till the next run to make those slight improvements we all look to make.
I think are thinking right. Four in 7-10 gal containers, vegged and trained right are the best way to go in a 4x4 tent. [Reply]

But that’s me.
Allow me to clarify.
Millions of men and women are confined to their homes/apartments etc for weeks at a time. Many may not be fortunate to have a permanent roommate. General statement, not my battle plan. [Reply]

Think of all those poor bastards who are now in solitary confinement with a big, ugly mean wife that hasn't showed him her undercarriage since the 90s......and the poor women locked down with a degenerate drunkard with a flat pekcer and no access to his pill supplier.
This is a forced opportunity for the country to reset and remember what's important. [Reply]
I'm watching old westerns nonstop on Grit TV. I am watching Fort Dobbs now with Clint Walker its better than the 2 stars Grit gives it. I am hoping for Night of the Grizzly if I don't poop out first. [Reply]

Yes I have a fan underneath and I defoliate every couple days. I'm sure they do like the humidity but I'm worried about bud rot. Everything I've read says to try and keep humidity between 40-50% once the buds start getting bigger to avoid it. Last time I grew which was about 5 years ago I didn't pay much attention to humidity at all and lost probably a quarter of my harvest so I'm paranoid about it this time.
And I'm growing in 100% coco, those are actually 2 gallon containers, in fact two of them are only one gallon. Coco requires a lot less medium but I have to water/feed every day...which isn't helping the humidity either. I don't like soil because last time I used it (FF Ocean Forest) I got a horrible fungus gnat infestation and got tired of fighting them...switched to coco and never saw one again. Plus even though it's a lot of work I enjoy mixing nutrients/additives every day and having complete control of what they're eating. Coco is like having the benefits of hydro and soil at the same time. [Reply]
