:smokebuds:You shouldn't have that much humidity in your tent. Your going to run into mold problems.I would suggest more air circulation by adding more fans and opening some more windows to let fresh air in.

For some reason or another its not raising my humidity. I have 3 different thermostats with humidity checker at 3 levels of my tent. its very cold on outside of tent and very warm on inside and it just builds up on the top of tent. I have a 440cfm fan and several other fans just didnt think i needed them at moment. Also have one of the big carbon filters but im not worried about the stank so its not hooked up either. as of right now humidity is 66% it usually in high 40's. Is 66 to high?? If so how do I exhaust air in and out and keep my temp up??

It must be pretty cold in your room if you're getting condensation on the inside of the tent. What's the temp in the room? 66% RH is too high and as Namvet said, you will probably have problems with mold once your buds start to get bigger and more compact. 50% is ideal in veg and a bit lower, around 40% in flower. My suggestion would be to install a variable speed controller on your fan and get it running. The variable speed controller will allow you to control the speed of the fan, lowering it to the point where you can maintain a consistent temp inside the tent. Exhaust your hot air back into the room so it helps to warm the room.
 
Where do you have your tent that it's so cold on the outside.Even in a basement it shouldn't get that cold.You have the same problem I have when I go camping when it's cold during the night and the body heat in the tent hits the interior walls and when the canvas is cold condinsation happens.You'll have to find a way to warm the air outside the tent up to where the condisation doesn't keep on happening.
 
Inside the tent it is 78 degrees. Outside it been getting in 30's and 40's. I can open the tent up every morning and in 15 min my temp goes down to low 60 but it dries everything quickly amd my RH goes to around 48%. But these are not my only questions. Im gonna post a few pics of the amphetamine... It is suppose to be a 45-50 day plant. Hoping that not case because still havnt fed it the bloom boost and if I fed today it wouldnt have enough time for a flush. How do I know when to do it?

I have my tent In my wood shop. No heat and not insulated either. Wifey wont allow in house lol. could I maybe put somthing around my tent? or put my heater in another box and use fan to exhaust out of box and into tent? Open to any suggestion and thank you all for your help. This is where the tent will have to be until next summer when garage is built so I need to figure somthing out.

Hey rd. :smokebuds:

There are no auto strains that I know of that can finish in 45-50 days. A lot of the descriptions given by seed banks are very exaggerated in terms of how quickly they will finish. The fastest strain that I know of to finish is Mossy's JEM, which has a 60-day pheno. Also HighRise seeds I think will be releasing a 65-day seed to harvest strain shortly.

Most autos need at least 10 weeks before they reach maturity. You still have some time. To determine when to harvest, you should match the state of your trichomes with the medical effect you're after.

I have a similar situation in my outdoor grow box where I'm pulling air directly in from outdoors, down the the low 20s at night most of the winter. After trying several things, here's what I finally got that is working great: http://www.qcsupply.com/commercial-...mount-variable-speed-controller-110-volt.html. It automatically speeds up or slows down my fan to maintain the set temperature. Now my temps stay between 77 and 82. Of course, my box is insulted so that helps a lot. I use a small space heater during lights out to keep the temps up then.

If you haven't seen this yet, give it a read. It will give you a better idea of what to expect from your plants. https://www.autoflower.org/f44/life-cycle-auto-flowering-cannabis-5113.html

Ok kindred, ty. I have no idea just going by what Barneys said. All my other plants suppose to be 90 day ones and the amphetamine was way ahead of them so I thought it might be done that quick. Id rather it not that way, so I can feed it and get more out of it. Its not suppose to be that strong or big but it was suppose to be fastest on market. Ive read alot on the JEM and dragons on here but never seen them at the seed place I use.

Right on bro, stay tuned because they will be available in the not too distant future from what I understand. :dance: :dance:
