Hey ya'll, my first post and my first grow. Hi to you all, Your HIGHness's. Thanks to all for your help along the way this has been a huge source for info for me when I dont want to call on my teachers for eerything. OK my humidity is 27-39 at best sometimes when it gets hot down to unregesterable. I have had clones in soil for 2 weeks (4 white widow, 2 train wreck and 2 quiekel (?)), great soil, 1000w mh with exhausted hood reflector and a 400mh with econoreflector. 18 gal tubs of soil, air inlet from outside (and raining) via insulated ducting. 2 humidiriers w/ alittle salt to increase output, a pan of water with 2 tiered cloth cascading from upper tub to lowerpan of water infront on a fan. I try to run humidifiers into night briefly and before day to get h. up some. I have got good growth but leaves seem robust but on the dry side. Using a 8" vector fan to keep temps down at 67 to 74. night is during day. I wonder if there is a particular model of humidifyier or fogger that puts out like its crazy.
Anyway, many thanks Your Highness and keep blazin the trail. bongsmilie

I've never heard of low humidity being a problem so I wouldn't stress out.
Your plants grow through a process called transpiration.
Water vapor leaves the leaf membrane and is replenished from the root.
As long as your keeping close tabs on your soil hydration you should be fine.
I have 2 dehumidifiers running constantly and my humidity is at about 45%.
My girls love it, they're Kush x Skunk.
Maybe you could try that strain. Kush originates from mountain tops.
Hope that helps.

Yo Thanks Sure Shot, I like your idea and really resinates with alot of others. Each grower and grow enviornment has ideal strains for it (them). And yeah no stress needed Im working with beauty and light sun and water...life is good. Again thanks for the reply. :leaf:

My room is like yours and no matter what I did I could not get it above 30, so I just stopped using humidifiers and now I mist them veryday and they me for it. . Low Rh is fine as it's a hell of a lot better the high RH. The main problem is that you have to water more often.
