Being that your in flowering 35 sounds alot better than too high

Ya good call I’ll keep it off for now.

Thanks! My humidifier has two settings low and high. Early on I ran it at high and my average was 55-60% lights on and 65-80% lights off. So as pre flower started I wanted to try and get it lower. I started shutting it off 1-2 hours before lights off and turning it back on after about 3 hours lights on. Now I have it on the low setting with lights on avg. around 45-50% and lights off it always shoots up to about 20% higher. So shutting it off brings it down to around 35 then it shoots up to about 55-65 at times.

If I just leave it off its around 35 lights on and 55 off.

What happens when you turn the humidifier off with the lights? Do you have a timer or daisy chain fiction with the light? If so plug the humidifier into the light. 35% not bad for late flower but 50 would be better for early flower. Their def. In flower so be gentle with defoilation try and cut the bigger fans and any leaves that cover bud sites. You want to make it so you get great airflow through the plant and light penetration. Never take more than 1/3 of the leaves I remove around 1/8 to a 1/4 with autos and if you get to a point where your unsure about taking anymore leaves stop. Defoilation can be a huge benefit done right or a big mistake done wrong. Be gentle you know your plant and what she can take trust your gut. Also I'd lay off the nitrogen a bit she looks a little dark green.

She does look a nice dark lush green! As long as the tips don’t begin to burn, congratulations! You’ve hit the sweet spot!

Take half the leaves!

Haha! Everyone does it different. Find your sweet spot and listen to her.

A lot of what ive read autoflowers actually prefer a dryer climate between 35 45% rh. Especially later in bud around 35 is good.

I’m using GH trio and cal mag... both micro and cal mag have nitrogen. I’m using 4/4/8 should I drop the micro to 3 or cal mag? I’d hate to create a new issue not knowing what I’m doing exactly.

Lights off and humidifier off it climbs up about 15-20%. Lights on with it off ranges from 35-45. Today it’s avg is 46.

Day 41

Watering every 2 days now. Rh- 35-57 Temp- 63-77

Marie seems to be reacting well after her accidental head chopping. Both plants have started stretching up a bit more since the lights were moved up. Lots of new bud sites popping through. I'm still tying down trying to keep everything even and let other areas catch up. Wonderful smell when I first open the tent! My rotating fan is sluggish to rotate hopefully i can fix it.... other than that everything is going ok i think.

Just doing a bit of catchup, your girls are looking great! I can attest, this strain from GCS will run 100days (10-12wks) easy without going amber. I had about 5% amber on TD1 and chopped her, still a bit couch-y, but damn good

You guys probably have dehumidifiers can anyone recommend a small but effective one for a 2x4x5 tent?

I’m guessing a mini would be perfect for tent size but I’m not sure how well they work.

I don't run a dehumidifier, I drop my humidity out though flowering as I usually have pretty condensed plants. 25-40 is the highest I let it go and resin / trichome production goes through the roof.

How do you keep it that low?

How do you keep it that low?

High airflow / exchange rate. Its dry as hell in my space and my fan sucks the tent in pretty good even at the lowest setting. My big challenge is keeping humidity IN during the earlier stages. I can blast a humidifier all day long and it gets sucked out faster then it can build up.
