Analog Or Digital Hygrometer??
    #27014747 - 10/31/20 09:59 PM (3 years, 2 months ago)

I have two digital hygrometers for the inside of my SGFC, however, I am now seeing that analog may be better. Can anyone say something about this? I don’t want to buy a new hygrometer but I also want to know the humidity of my SGFC accurately.
Thanks everyone!
Cheers!

Neither. Let the SGFC do its job. Any hygrometers or thermometers will just increase the chances of you obsessing over it and screwing something up.

Just mist it when it looks dry and if you built it properly it will work how it is supposed to. Fanning is also an outdated practice so in case you're doing that stop it - most SGFC teks don't mention this in them since a lot of them are old.

Hearing fanning is outdated is very useful! I won’t be doing that. Do you have a recommendation for what temp I should keep outside the SGFC? Or does the SGFC do its job really automatically without checking that. Thanks!
Cheers!

Awesome. So I just mist till they’re glistening and keep doing that when they get dry?
Cheers!

Pretty much. Just make sure to actually let them get a bit dry before misting again. The idea is to go through cycles of misting till glistening with moisture, then having moisture evaporate until they are a bit dry (not cracker dry or anything though), and then misting again.

I made the mistake of over-misting my cakes my first BRF cake grow since I thought you want them to be glistening with moisture 24/7. Just mist until glistening only when they look dry

You seem to be on the right track :thumbup:
