    Is strictly exhausted Dehumidifier air good for plants?

    This might be a weird question but is just exhausted dehumidifier air good for plants? Long story short as possible, I have a tiny 2x2 grow tent that can't be fixed with a tiny dehumidifier inside to keep RH 40-45% during flower. So I bought a big nice quality dehumidifier and have it set to...

    Fabric Vs Air Pots - My Take

    When starting out I had a hard time deciding, so I got both and looking back, this is what I would have found informative... Maybe someone else will. Indoors - I found that Fabric pots are the way to go. They are much easier to water. Much less messy as soil cant fall out or the air pots. The...

    are air stones even necessary?

    Can I put an air hose with the backflow restricter in a dwc bucket without an air stone? The bubbles would be bigger, the airflow would increase, and if roots get the majority of their air atmospherically (as opposed to through the water), then all the air has to do is mix the water up, right?

    Do plants need air during dark period?

    Hey guys sorry for the basic question but do my plants need air during the dark period? I guess what I should say is I know they need it but will it greatly damage them if I just shut up the tent for 12 hours a day? Because I haven't been able to afford a fan and ducting quite yet.

    Defoliation to distribute light more evenly to bud sites?

    I know there is a massive debate regarding defoliation. And arguments stack up in my opinion on both sides. Outdoor I wouldn't want to. But today I bit the bullet for the 3 larger ladies in my tent. Personal reasoning was poor light penetration through the canopy and decreased airflow. Guess we...
