Well it has come that time, today i got my coolmist humdifier, modified it to get tubing into fruiting chamber. Perlite layer on bottom and im pretty sure I added too much water to perlite for I get humdity levels showing over 100+ but unsure of the exact number for my temperature device is pretty cheap but works. Temp currently 71 and humdity def. over 100... Not sure if its bad to have WAY too high humidity? Ill post a picture with my webcam (crappy quality) and ill start my grow-log probably tomarrow when my digi is at home (on a new posting)... Just wanted to check to see if any1 has input on ideal temp. range, humidity, possible problems to be fixed before they go bad.. Also should I even mist FC?



Notice how the temp is over 100, might be hard to read numbers... Anyways Ill have new clear pics tomarrow and will probably put it on a new posting for a log. Thanks for help guys! Peace!

I would say 100% humidity is as high as you can possibly go...if it says 105%, then it's probably broken

Well is there such thing has humidity being over 100? I know it works I tested outside/in/FC it changed in all different locations. Btw, if any1 has questions or anything ask away.

you may want to calibrate that hygrometer

calibrate... as in.. the humdifier gauge is a small coil that goes around in circles.. I notice when the circles get big or smaller that differenciates the humidity levels. And you said small contaner to run a coolmist... well in that case what are the downfalls from this.. U sure?

Well I guess you answered my question? I dont know... I pretty sure guage works.. has changed when in different environments... Just guessing the coils can tighten up even more than it just goes over 100 humidity? either way 100 humidity fine?

ok, for one i'll tell ya from looking at the pics that your rH is not near 100%, if it were there would be lots and lots of condensation forming on the chamber walls as well as drops running down. that hygrometer that you have may be off by alot, these other folks aren't pulling your leg. it would not be a calibration that you need to do but a check of the gauge rather. do a search and you can find the tek for checking your hygrometer. secondly is your polyfil touching anything inside? if it is make it so its not, the polyfil will absorb water and not allow as even of an airflow as it will dry. the third thing, is your coolmist running 24/7. I don't think it needs to run all the time with a chamber that small. it is ok to use it but i would set it on a timer to maybe run for like 5-15 minutes a few times an hour. that would be sufficient and i think have a positive affect on your rH.
besides that from what i can tell from the pics your cakes look good. you'll have something in no time. best of luck

I'm not going to give you the link for certain reasons that I will not name right now, do ya catch my drift. All I will tell ya right now is to search for what you are trying to do and that is check the accuracy of your hygrometer.
