Definitely OCD my girls got me!!
Is the air coming in to tent from heat filtered. Im worried about mites.
That’s so awesome! Good for you for thinking outside of the box. I seriously mean that as I probably would have spent a day trying to figure it out.
Mites, you mean dust mites. If there in my duct system I wouldn’t know. I got dust like everyone else lol. But she’s not cold. 81° last night with lights on 12/12, 43% RH, put humidifier on will check later.
You could get a small air cleaner? Just don’t do like I did and buy a big one. That thing sucks out all the moisture. Me and my family (to include dogs) were walking around like we are raisins before I realized what the deal was. I’ve never been so thirsty in my life.

Dude, I think we might be good. Temp is good, humidity still high 63% lowered the settings. I’ll keep watching
. Put in SCROG, tried to repeat what I saw. She’s so bushy and thick.
Open to input. Thanks
Guess I’ll see how things go

Looks great so far. I don’t have the heat issue in my basement ive got baseboard heating so the boiler keeps the basement at a consistent temp but that plus my lights push the temps waaaayyy up so I bit the bullet n splurged on the acinfinity t6 cloudline fan for my outake/filter setup definitely worth the money and so quiet n light

I seeen them Ac Infinitys. they look wonderful. especially if you get all the extras. lol that’s quite the dollar spent though. my tent is in my room. I hear both fans.
She’s beautiful and lifting off nicely. Your emergency heat issue may have actually been a great lesson, huh? I love how our Mother does that.
So true!! She’s going to be huge. Added that SCROG,
this morning,
She refused to be tied down
Will continue to prune & try to keep her height down.
Great day to you all

Hey @Adcrag. I’m in Ohio as well, but don’t have the temp issues you’re speaking of (I’m near Cleveland). My basement is heated via 4 ducts from the main furnace, but the basement is also 2200 square feet and never gets below 65, even with the heat off. The only thing I’ve noticed is that the floor gets a bit colder than normal, so I put some foam mats down which isolates the plant from the concrete.
You may just need to employ yo-yos with her. Are you familiar?
Hey @Bill I’m near ya. Unfortunately, my girls on the non-tenant side, but she’s warm now, humidity is low, gonna but wet towel in there.
Anyway what is yoyo??

Very cool @Adcrag. I keep humidity up by using empty coffee cans filled with water. If things get dry, I just add coffee cans - too wet, and I close them up with their lids. I do this throughout the grow, flower, and drying processes. Easy way to regulate humidity as the amount of water put into the air has a direct relation to the exposed surface area of the moisture source. Opening/closing lids changes that surface area, regulating the amount of moisture put into the air. Of course there are other considerations that affect moisture transfer into the air such as temperature and current humidity level.
And that yoyo thing is an interesting gadget. I use alligator clips and twist tie wire, allowing me to clip anywhere on just about anything, as well as pull in any direction. Twist tie wire comes in 100m spools so it can be cut to length as needed. Approx $15 for 100 35mm alligator clips and 100m spool of twist tie wire. That’s what I use to keep plants where I want/need them. Also, using floral wire to train the branches, etc while they’re vegging is another thing I’ve been trying. Need to be careful with this technique as the wire can damage the plant or keep it from growing.
You can also use any kind of string/twine that you may prefer instead of the twist tie wire. Personally, I like the wire as it’s easy to “twist” it at the length, loop size, etc that is needed (there’s a bit more “fussing” with strings as they need to be tied and can’t be “formed” the way wire can).

Nice! Thanks for the tips. The one drawback to the yoyo is that it snaps back quickly and can take a branch with it if fast/hard enough. Your design sounds way better and more controlled.
