Hey Bro, just caught up in here.... looking good,

I wouldn't worry at this stage, some plants take longer to get going than others. Give them a mist now and again from a spray bottle.

Humidity can be a problem if it's very low.... Humidity domes are a good idea, just a couple of upturned 2ltr drink bottles (with the top cut off) over the plants will help... cut a few holes in the bottle as required to control the humidity level.

Another way is to add humidity with a ultrasonic fogger... like this....

Yes bro that low humidity is defo the problem try putting some wet towels or spray the walls with water to get it over 35%

I will give it a try. The problems in that I have active intake and exhaust 24/7. No way else to control the heat. So with my two inline fans the air is constantly being refreshed.

Do you have a fan controller... either temp or Rh controlled, so it will switch fans as required?

something like this works....

Great idea! I will put some plastic bottles over the plants. How many holes should I cut in the bottles? How much humidity is too much inside the bottle?

Where can I purchase that controller for the two prong euro plug?

My plants are on day 10 and it looks like a 5 day plant. I'm definitely behind schedule.

Start with just one and check the Humidity (Give them a mist spray if low - the dome will contain it) aim for around 60%+ RH in the early days and gradually reduce it.

No idea... I purchased a UK plug version from E-Bay.... try a search there, or ask your local grow shop.

Can you give me a link to the UK plug version? I can purchase an adaptor for it.

There are loads out there.... some use Humidity, some use temp to switch... some just adjust the fan speed...

Try this... I use one in my drying tent >>>LINK<<< or this >>>LINK<<< or this >>>LINK<<<

This is one I use in my main grow tent.... Very good, but more expensive... >>>LINK<<<

Thanks for the links! My grow tent exhausts hot air from the grow light into a shed. The shed has a separate temperature controlled inline fan. It runs non stop 24/7 at 100% speed and it keeps my temperature perfect. With my constant exchange of fresh air from outside there is not much I can do for humidity right now. If I stop either of my inline fans then my plants will be dead very fast. If I buy and run a humidifier it's pointless as the air is constantly being exhaused with fresh air from the outside. I think bottles covering the plants until the plants get older and they transpire more water. What do you think?
