Hi All, I have recently set up a highland tent. I have a window mount AC cut into the side of the tent and a bucket humidifier with 8 single disc pond foggers circulating back and forth from the tent similar to Kyles basement setup.
The issue I am having is that whenever the AC unit kicks on it rapidly reduces the humidity in the tent. I can have it sitting at 95% with the humidifier working away then when the ac unit comes on it will drop to 70 within minutes further down the longer the AC unit needs to run to get to temp.
I have tried making the output from the AC untit cross paths with the output of the bucket humidifier to mix the air however it has made no difference.
I have temps set at 77 day 53 night and 95% humidity. I can acheive 53deg within minutes however by then the humidity has dropped rapidly to 70ish then as soon as the AC unit turns of it will quickly return to 95% with the AC cycling on again approx every 10 mins for a few mins will this constant rise and fall of humidity be damaging to the HL neps. I am aiming for hamata, eddy, vilosa etc so I need to get this sorted prior to getting them
thanks in advance if anyone can help me out.
Cheers, Dave
