New GrowLab 120 user... questions for you tent guys

Hello all

Got my LED testing Growlab 120 up and very nice tent.... had a few small pinholes in it from someone poking the box on delivery... got those patched up

But I am running a totally sealed tent inducing c02... but having humidity issues... 60-70% without even being able to foliar feed... what do you tent guys use to help? just stick a whole dehumidifier in there? i have a large one from my 10x10 normal flower room but that would take up quite a bit of space in the tent.

Does anyone keep a carbon filter inside their tent if they are running a totally sealed tent? or should i just keep the filter outside of the tent and scrub/clean the air that is in the main room outside of the tent??

Thanks all and cant wait to see these babies grow.. will be putting my grow journal soon, as soon as i get these issues squared away.

The plants are gonna transpire, that moisture has to go somewhere. 2 Choices...

1. Dehumidifer
2. Exhaust on a timer

I would also scrub inside the tent unless you are cool with the room faintly smelling like bud.

Thank you for advice, so even with large fan and carbon filter...outside the room will slightly stink? Not a big deal to me but makes sense since inside tent will always stink and emit an odor

I have a Glowlabs GL80 tent and have my carbon filter inside the tent, ducted to a inline fan that runs 24/7. Has far as your RH% if this tent is going to be used for veg growth only (or motherplant) 60-70% is great, but you would like less than 50% for flowering. Placing a dehumidifer in the same room as your tent should fix you RH% Good Luck.

Thanks... this is for flower so i am shooting for around 40% RH... just got home from going to check on the tent... was at 93% RH ay ay ay

So now i get to go source a dehu, which arent in season here in Michigan so will be hard to find a decent one at decent price... but it is needed and no way around it... plants have been in the tent 2 days and already stretched quite a bit from the humidity and i need to get this taken care of... and the basement i grow in is too cold to ventilate out since these LEDs put out low heat, and because C02 is on the way for this tent and i will be running it fully sealed
