monotub humidification
    #5930337 - 08/04/06 01:33 AM (17 years, 5 months ago)

I am considering doing a monotub type of chamber. I was wondering if humidification from an external source would be beneficial. Would the extra moisture increase yield?

Mono and double tub setups have always worked great for me as-is. I have heard of people adding humidifiers with success. I believe Premedman is one of them.

Does anyone know if it would be worthwhile to add a humidifier? All I wanted to know was if the extra water could increase yield.

I would think the extra water would saturate the substrate.

I have no need for added humidification in my monotubs.
Use four inches of substrate and you'll be fine.

humidity isn't thought to be the problem with monotubs at all,
fresh air exchange is.

our greenhouses utilize massive amounts of fresh air exchange,
while the monotubs rely upon correct hole placement and size,
along with a draft in the room they are in.

but as said above, people have hooked up humidifiers to them before.

Well if the humidifier brings you closer to optimal conditions, then yes they will aid in increasing the yield.

A properly constructed monotub is more than optimal IME.
