Dry Tent Setup
Going to be using a 2 X 4 tent to dry and I have some questions.
The room the tent is in is normally around 68-70 degrees F, 40-50% humidity in the winter. I also have a 2 x 2 veg tent and a 2 X 4 flower tent. None are connected together and use AC Infinity gear to regulate them independently.
What is the best way to get the humidity and temperature correct in the dry tent? I am thinking about cooling the room with and air conditioner (AC Infinity Heaters on other tents). As for the humidity, I know the tent will initially be closer to 60% when I first load it with fresh plants (2-3 at a time). What do I do if the humidity is too low or gets lower then I want it? Humidify the room or the tent? (AC Infinity Humidifier). Appreciate any advice/guidance.

My dry ares is in a wardrobe in my bedroom/lung room. It’s winter time so I can close my door at night and open my window. My grow is also in my bedroom with lights on at night. I have an ac infinity controller that runs on level one constantly to exchange air. My grow blows out warm air , (around 75 to 80. The window open cools my grow and my dry area. Seems to balance out. My humidity dips from time to time and usually I can just hang a wet wash rag in there and it stays around 55% to 60%.

I would recommend increasing humidity of your lunch room to 58% until a few days then bring it up 1 percent every day till ypu get to 62 %. Be sure not to go above 62% humidity. Also I would recommend a box fan attached to some air filters to throughly clean the air of the lung room. The cost of air filters are not that bad nowadays. I use 20 x 20 inch filters attached to a 20 inch box fan

Thanks for the advice, thats what I was thinking I needed to do.

If you decide to go with a fresh air intake with filters remember to check the rating of the filters your going to use. I’d get 1 that will stop mold & mildew spores
