Temperature and Humidity: Difference between revisions

 
==Ventilation ==
In Indoor grows, ventilation is a very important part of having control over the temp and humidity. As the plant expels water vapour via transpiration the air becomes more humid and this eccess water vapour must be removed from the grow environment. In other words, a fan to remove humid air is crucial. Blower (centrifugal fans) should be used for this type of ventilation<ref>Centrifugal Fan vs Axial Fan | Industrial Accessories Company - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYxLbBP3evM </ref>. To control the smell emitted from the plant, [[Carbon filter|carbon filters]] are often implemented as part of the exhaust of the ventilation.
 
==Vapour pressure deficit (VPD)==
 
==Ideal conditions==
The ideal temperature is range is 24°- 28°C<ref>Chandra et al. (2008) - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3550641/pdf/12298_2008_Article_27.pdf</ref> while the ideal humidity is 40-60%. Of course, the exact ideal values differ depending on the current [[Life Stages|life stagesstage]] orof the plantculivar or it's [[genetics]].
