I'll be investing in pong foggers as the humidity(lack of) is killin me this winter. Even with the whole house humidifier, it hasn't got above 20% and some days it's so low it doesn't even register. Some plans are worse than others, but all have leaf tacos


Hi, otis33.

A temporary solution might be to fill a 5 gallon bucket with water, then place several air stones into the bucket. It might also be possible to place a fan on top of the bucket that draws that moisture out of the bucket and circulates it around the area, or, inline, through a manifold with flexible tubing or pvc attached, running to the tops or proximity of each desired area.

Best,
/SRGB/

You must be in my hood otis. Cold as fuck, not a drop of humidity to speak of..

Foggers have helped me a ton. Wish I had more.. I have 2 5 disc foggers in my flower room, but seriously could use 8 of em. The winter colors doe ;)

Thanks for dropping in fellas. I've got a big feeding trough with no lid on this flower room and I've put a couple of towels half in/out and it did help a little, but the humidity is so low I'm still not where I need to be. Come spring every thing will be in line. Ilk be more prepared next winter.

I built a three sided housing for my outside unit to prevent this very thing from happening ;). When it get's just ridiculously cold I occasionally have to drape a tarp over the fourth side to further slow down the loss of heat. Basically I trap some of the grow rooms heat to keep the a/c's outside unit warm :biggrin:. Kept trucking right along even when it was -30 here :biggrin:

If I did that I would have to shut down my dehumidifier/cooling fan. Can't do that it's working to well now.

And besides I am only kind of sure where the cooling tower is out there. Have a idea where the line sets might be too.

So it's been a while since I updated...the commerce city kush has beasted the fuck out. She smells amazing and is frosty as hell, but the buds ,so far, are pretty airy. Hopefully they just need a little extra time.

The white fire are doing as good as I expected. I decided to flower out the phenols that I wasn't keeping and now I'm having second thoughts as one of them really looks to be a much heavier yielded. A reveg may be in order.

This update was done from my wife's phone bc the device I normally use is having issues. I will try to figure out the photo problem and do some more photo updates. I have another donut going that consists of four gaks a hippy stash a sour boggle and a sweet and sour Cindy. I've also starred to fill the donut stack with wifi and a big ghost train haze that I've put in the entrance as it out grew the previously described mix crop donut. I'm also about to crank up my new house which looks like its going to be a big plant multi-light ppk deal in one room and a coco bed in the other.
