hey IC magers i do have another Q, i will continue to search the forums for answers but in the mean time can yall help me out with this?

I know in flowering the LOWER the rel Humid% is the better. But what about veg?

Mine seems to be all over the map, we did just have some wet weather roll through the area but in 12 hrs (NO RAIN) they have fluxed from 49%-66% so +/- 17% and are staying about 60% +/- 3.

The lights are on 20/4 for veg, plants are clones, and they seem to like it. I just want to make sure that the Hum% are ok, and if I need to how would one eleveate some of it? could I just opening the door to the room? would it help or increase? just any tips would be awsome :)

ty again guys/gals (and all others :p)

i think the plants needs to rest... 20/4 for the firts days and after 18/6. Just my opinion..

moisture are particles of liquid present in the air and when it rains, the humidity increases. in my area, when it rains, the humidity rises untill about 80% but with no rain, the humidity its between 40 and 50 %...

when the temperature rises, the humidity drops and vs.

for rooting clones its best at 95-100% for the first couple of days and then drop to 85%-80% . try things out see what works best for your situation, opening doors or windows could or should help because of co2.

I second this, anyone who runs 24/0 is insane. 18/6 is the way to go for veg.

60-70% is good for veg and 30-40% is good for flowering. Just to avoid mold risks.
