Heat dropping humidity?!?!?
    #5423589 - 03/20/06 09:57 PM (17 years, 10 months ago)

i thought heat was supposed to help with humidity. i live in the north and my grow room is in the 60's. i tried a heat lamp and a little space heater to bring it up to the 70's then the humidity drops way low. is this some ting anyone else has had a problem with or should i just forget about the heat issue all together? it is pissing me off. i am using a Martha style chamber set up in a walk in closet...

Yep, higher heat will allow the air to hold more vapor, but sounds like your heater is sucking the air dry, as they all tend to do, especially electric heaters. Remember humidity is usually measured in relative terms, so if you don't increase your water vapor and only increase your temperature, your Relative humidity will drop. So by increasing the heat you're half way there, now increase your vapor output and all will be right in the world....That's all I'm worth...
