If you have a grow tent, prefab room, or green room, you probably know how important it is to keep the temperature and humidity levels balanced. People may think that caring for indoor plants is the same as caring for your garden outdoors, but not quite. Plants need the proper water, humidity, and temperature ratio to ensure they get the best nutrients to grow.
To help your vegetation flourish, here are the best ways to control humidity in your grow room.
Remember To Control Your Temperature
When plants grow indoors, you must ensure that your temperature and humidity are consistent. Humidity and temperature are closely linked to one another and can potentially ruin your plant’s chances for survival. Naturally, plants need cooler nights and warmer days. Keeping your room at the proper temperature will also help level your humidity.
Try Not to Overwater Your Plants
Another way to control the humidity in your grow room is by following a strict watering schedule. Underwatering your plants can lead to drying them out, but what about when you overwater? When you overwater your plants, it could increase the humidity in the room. Overwatering can also flood the roots, stunting your plant’s growth and eventually killing it.
Add a Dehumidifier Inside Your Room
What do you do if your room gets too humid? It’s easy for an indoor prefab room to get humid quickly. To help your plants survive indoors, adding a dehumidifier will help remove the excess moisture, decreasing the humidity levels. It’s essential to invest in tools that will help support the overall growth of your plants. Purchasing a dehumidifier with a one-gallon water tank is your best option.
Improve Your Room’s Ventilation
To help control the humidity inside your grow room, adding a few fans can improve the room’s ventilation. This is the most practical and simple way to enhance the air quality and flow. We recommend using an atmospheric device with a humidity setting to ensure your plants are in the perfect setting. You can also add a fan or open a window to help regulate the moisture in your growing room. However, when using a fan, ensure the outflow fan is bigger than the intake fan.
