Mold and mildew grow in high humidity not low it's better to be too low then to high low you're not going to get mold are mildew but to High u well

I put a jar of water with a paper towel wick. It has raised my humidity. Just refill the jar as it dries out. Not the best, but it helps.

 

@mad ganja702 is spot on. No worries about low humidity. When you go to dry your harvest, you may want to be concerned with low humidity, but you have a while before that. depending on where you live, the RH should start raising soon anyway.

 

Incorrect sir. Different types of both mold and mildew occur at different humidity lvls. White powder mildew for example typically happens in low humidity high temp rooms. Its best to achieve 30%-50%.

For low humidity get a single room cool most humidifier for your most effective way to raise it. As stated before. A damp towel hanging half out of a bucket with a fan blowing over it will help a lil.

Season change means little anymore for indoor growers. If you're in a region that has a rain season or an extensive dry season is an exception. Here in tn there's lil difference. When it rains or snows rh goes up, as it dries rh goes down. Now... Spring and specially summer will have you scrambling a few times. When it rains and that hot summer sun evaporates it all humidity spikes reaching as high as 70% inside. After its been dry for a week or 2 and things get arid, rh plummets with the relentless sun baking everything. Indoor, you find yourself scrambling to adjust the rh for each situation. This will always happen in these environments if you bring in fresh air from the outside. An air tight sealed room with only an exhaust and supplemental o2 and co2 is the only way to have 100% control of environments

Cool mist single room humidifier to raise humidity. You can try a bucket of water, dip and ring a hand towel hang it over the edge half in the water with a fan blowing over it for a free less effective way. And eventually when you need to drop the rh calcium chloride I believe. Basically damprid. Is the cheapest way. Dehumidifier being the most effective.

If you dont get a cool mist humidifier you will have the same problem as you would with a dehumidifier. An ample amount of heat to deal with.
