humidity -- too MUCH?
    #5323533 - 02/21/06 10:34 AM (17 years, 11 months ago)

I have a container in a small greenhouse filled with colonized horse poo with a 1/4" layer if vermiculite over top. My intentions were to keep the humidity between 80-90% right through the whole fruiting stage. Turns out the wet vermiculite really ADDS to the humidity! It passes 95% sometimes.. is this too much for just a vermiculite casing layer?
i have a coolmist and humidifier which activates 20 mins every hour

Yeah, 95% is too high. Get the ultrasonic to turn on less often, and fan the whole thing every now and then to get the RH back down.

high humidity never really hurts anything. if you can lower it a bit then thats great, if not you'll be alright at 95.

Yep 95% isn't too high up until your pins are set then you'll want to lower it a bit 85-92% for casings. GL Also coolmist should be running 24/7 :wink:
