I have just started flowering in my sealed room, and am still adjusting some minor things but have noticed that my humidity is kind of high and was wondering why. here is what I am using in my room and a few thoughts I had.
15x6x8 room size
3 air cooled 1000's
12,000btu window ac
sentinel variable co2 gen using only 2 burners right now
sentinel chhc-1 controlling ac, co2, and night time heater
sentinel chhc-1 sensor is literally under the lights at plant top heighth
kenmore 50 pint dehumidifier w continuous drain hose
50 ak plants in 3 gal pots of promix about 12" tall
the dehumidifier and co2 burner are all at the end fo the room along the wall, the dehumidifier is plugged into an old green air climate controller which is located closer to the middle of the room. set at about 35% on the controller and full blast on the unit.
humidity high has been something like 65%. just seems high, and feel like I should be able to have more control than that.
thoughts:
maybe the dehumidifier is not working right because its to close to the wall,
maybe the slightly higher temps and are causing too much humidity
maybe the unit is too small
maybe the humidity reading IN the plants is ok at that level
I would like to hear what other people are running for dehumidifiers in sealed rooms, and other specs, also what levels of humidity are acceptable if neccessary.
Thanks, please help
