The chart from Pulse will be a great help, thanks. I live in an old apartment block, it's always quite humid in here around 65% RH. Lowering the RH with dehumidifier doesn't seem to do all that much so I'm considering increasing the temperature in the tent with heater. You reckon that's a good idea?
I'm not to versed in VPD. But I usually keep it like a 73 degree summer day and 50 plus rh in veg and in flower like 69 to 71 degrees and 40 rh or lower.
In the past year, I have become an AC Infinity nut!🤣 I have three tents in my grow room, 4x4, 3x3, and a 2X4. All three tents have smart exhaust fans with the 69 controller. I don't use the VPD section of the controller. I have a window unit AC for the cooling, a dehumidifier And a brand new AC infinity humidifier, that big 15 liter one....... That thing is a beast! The window unit and humidifier controls the lung room environment And I use the fan speed setting to control the temperature in the tent. I ALWAYS have some air flow in my tent, so I have a minimum setting on my fan and then I have a trigger temperature set for the fan to go at a higher rate to bring the temperature back down. Each tent has different lights and different thermal loads, but all three tents have the same style of air flow. The 4x4 and 3x3 are both Gorilla tents and the 2X4 tent is a Mars hydro. On the Gorilla tents, I use the front lower cinched inlets with 6 inch exhaust hose with a screen covering to bring the air into the tent. Just enough of the hose sticks out for it to lay flat and long enough to prevent light intrusion. I used the exhaust hose from the AC infinity 6 inch exhaust fan in the 4x4 tent. It is reflectively lined on the inside, so I fogged the hose outside the tent with flat black paint to knock down the light intrusion even more. The 2X4 Mars tent only has cinched openings at the top, So I use a very long 4 inch Exhaust hose to bring in the fresh air. Comes all the way back down to the bottom of the tent and to the bottom of the floor outside the tent. This way all tents take cool air from the bottom of the lung room and all tents have air flow from bottom front to top rear and it exhausts out the very top. The ceiling fan is always going to keep the lung room air mixed well. This maintains the long room parameters very closely. The tents parameters are just as stable. The CLOUDFORGE T7 Is an absolute beast and is highly accurate! It handles my lung room quite easily at setting 2. The absolute only downside so far is not being able to control it with the phone app when used totally on its own. You can use it with the 69 pro controller, but that is really only for one tent, because it uses the sensor from the 69 controller that is in your tent. With my Grow room set up in this fashion with AC Infinity, my environment has been rock steady! It's been one less thing to worry about and having to constantly check and tweak. Today I will be finishing the installation of my AC Infinity controlled CO2 augmentation! I'll run the hose to one central location in the grow room and then equal length identical hoses with a manifold at the end to distribute the CO2 to each tent, I'll zip tie each manifold to the top bar at the front of each tent. With CO2 being heavier it will fall down to the bottom and being stirred up by the circulation fans, which are AC Infinity also! Each tent will get a supply of CO2 through the manifolds and through recirculation, I think it will be a glorious run! I really love everything that I've gotten so far through AC Infinity! And this smart controller can make your life so much easier!
@@HappyHydro Well I thought maybe your listeners could gain a little bit with the detail that I went into. It just really simplifies the grow and the only time you need to make any changes is when you up the light or you're at the life stage where your VPD needs to be changed. My temperature and humidity in the tents are rock solid and only vary by a few degrees.
I couldn’t agree more. These new controllers with high and low trigger points have been a game changer for me. Long gone are the days of doing everything manually and the headache that came with it. I’m still a fan of hand watering personally but everything else in my grow room is automated and it’s never been easier. Also glad I found y’all’s website.

I too am NE, glad I just bought ac infinity's humidifier, heater, and 8 port controller and can't wait. Thanks for explaining the settings, I've been doing the tail chasing with a standard oil filled heater and humidifier that I can't program and it drives me nuts.
Hey man, Just want to say I own the AC infinity 69 Pro, and have the tent and equipment you talked about. It has been so overwhelming for me to understand how I should go about trying to control the VPD, and your video made everything so much easier. Great work, and thank you for making this. Cheers
I may have been over killing my ventilation and having steady high VPD. Now I have a VPD sensor on my new T-3 humidifier I now have my exhaust on low on off at 15 minutes intervals on a timer which saves power and keeps the humidity just about right so far based on leaf temp off set. Its all built into the humidifier. Had issues with leaf tip burn and stress. Going to keep it .9 as the lowest humidifier turns on and it goes down to .84 and shuts off until it gets to .9 and turns on. I need to change that I think. Although I have wide leaf strains that are supposed to like it dry. I will set trigger to 1.0 instead of .9 for late veg . Something I never tried. I always ran my dehumidifier when I probably should not have for the last 4 grows that did alright but could have done batter. I want to see the other extreme now. But now my living space humidity is a few points higher. I prefer it lower a few points.
I dry using VPD and aim for between .77 - 85 KPa by dialing in the humidity level to the ambient temp to create the VPD desired. and get a 7 day dry in summer or winter.
@@Ben84s Not according to the latest science. 7 - 10 days is optimum dry time now. the canatron dries it in 5 -6 days and even professor Bugby now says the old school 14 day dry is to long and the tricones break down as they decay. There was also a female scientist from the industry on Garden talk not to long ago who says the same thing. So I'll stick with what I'm doing as it works just fine and is now backed by science and not bro science..

I have just always preferred the results of the longer dry of 14-16 days myself using what’s available to me in my home controlled environment. I bet the Canatrol would be the best way to do it because it would be a much better at controlling the dry environment then I could ever do in my home using an ac, dehumidifier and humidifier setup. One day, If I could afford the 4k cost of one, I’d love to have one.
Great info👊. it's ok to run RO water in the humidifier,i just switched to a RO system the plants are loving it in auto pots an a RDWC system.But thanks for the info bro
Thanks for the video! Im trying to find out as a new grower, that is in a cold environment, would keeping the day/night temps the same hurt the plants?
So i do live in south west germany in summer it is very hot, environment temp in my room where the tent is is about 26-28Celsius... what u recommend? Thx,
Hey there! 26 -28C is not a terrible range. If you can keep your tent temperature a steady consistent temperature by staying near or below 27C you should ok. If you notice your tent is getting too warm you may benefit from adding some air conditioning to your lung room so that the ambient air around your tent is cooler. if you have more questions feel free to shoot us an email to help@happyhydro.com
I haven't seen an AC unit for AC Infinity yet which is weird since they started out from ACs but i have a portable AC unit i havent ised yet but will get hot here shortly. How can i have that AC unit (Phillips) get controlled with the controller or can I?
There are ways to get some of your other grow tech to connect to the controller. They have an adapter for lights which is cool and will allow them to communicate. Also they have a smart outlet, which will allow you to control whatever is plugged into the smart outlet through the controller. The only downfall is its limited capabilities as in it can only turn the device plugged into the outlet on and off.
@HappyHydro you are right it's like chasing a tail. Wish I seen this a few months ago but I figured it out. My question is dialing in the vpd with my tent how do you get it to stay consistent meaning not having to go thru distilled water everyday or other day to fill the humidifier? Vpd is dialed in but have to use a gallon of water every second day for the humidifier.
You can’t really get around the humidifier and water needs. You could try a swamp cooler type humidifier if you have space, distilled water not necessary for those, or you could try putting buckets of water out to help keep it up and go through less in your humidifier.
@happyhydro it’s tough out here in Arizona … tents constantly going thru about a gallon per day to keep humidity level … we don’t use VPD triggers but are using humidity triggers with buffer and transitions using the AC Infinity 69 Pro. Exhaust triggers as well for too high temp and too high humidity it’s pretty stable but any ideas how to control the room better
It’s going to be tough in dry and hot climates. You’re fighting against an AC that pulls moisture out of the air and just dry conditions in general. Have you tried putting buckets of water around in the room to help keep humidity up and more stable?
I dont run a dehumidifier, I increase airflow dramatically if its to humid. So far I have been lucky, its good enough. I do run the AC though when its needed.
@@HappyHydro Yea, thats where I am at atm. Im mid flower right now. I have my airflow pretty strong from the bottom of my tent going up, so a strong pull right through my canopy. I am not to worried. Probably won't be super dense nugs, but I am sure good enough for me.Its already ultra frosty.
@@HappyHydro Altering it has a big effect on the controllers vpd after mucking about with it a little. So leaving it to standard would mean the vpd I'm trying to set is potentially not that accurate. Given that leaf temperature is pretty impossible to measure throughout it's daily movement. Then you would need to be adjusting the controller constantly. Just interested in others take on it?
Perfect timing on this as I’m trying to figure this out on my controller 69. I have the inline fan managing vpd, while the humidifier is aiming for a humidity range. I have a dumb heater and when it turns on it spikes the heat in my tent. Do you know a great heater to work with controller 69?
Use a radiant oil filled heater. A small one will work for most tents (700 watts). Make sure it is not digital or it won’t work with an AC Infinity outlet.
Some are built around the vegetative stage or flowering stage but you don’t need to have this stuff completely dialed in perfectly anyways, in the range is fine
I'm looking for a channel or a groop to discuss settings, I would like to smooth my VPD curve, it goes up and down 0.1 kpa every 30 minutes, would like to have it steady
I have about 24 hours experience. I think the real goal is to save money on power from dehumidifiers is top priority. This makes it easier on the plant making it healthier with a better immune system which could fight off Powder mildew. On the other extreme you rum the dehumidifiers to much you waste power, the plant is stresses, that lowers its immune system to fight off powder mildew and you just kicked yourself in the nuts. I am currently saving 50 % power on exhaust fans by placing them on a timer.
Good explanation of VPD, but you figures are a bit high compared to other scientific studies i've seen. You must live in a warm climate, so even when you are on lower power light in veg, you are still able to create high temps. In Europe and other cooler winter climates. it quite hard to get over mid 70's in early veg renning LED's, But a VPD of 75 -90KPa is just fine. Anything over 1.0KPa in early flower works well and 140 is the figure most give for mid to late flower.
Any links to data on vpd that is cannabis specific? It seems there are several versions of these “optimum vpd” ranges but they are generic and or specific to crops like tomatoes…tomatoes and cannabis hybrids were not developed or climatized to grow in the same environment…imo the needs of cannabis are much different than most vegetables and maybe even different depending where individual cultivars are climatized to..broad leaf and narrow leaf varieties def do not like the same environments…
Bro...why are you holding a lav mic??? Clip it to your shirt collar, or even better get some Moleskin tape (walmart, cvs, amazon) and tape it to your chest. As a videographer i just couldn't handle that hahaha
Hahaha thanks for the input. I have been having some audio issues since the space that I shoot in is so echoey so I figured I'd try something to help that. Safe to say I'm not the savviest lol
I have three pro 69 units and manage a 2x4 old school and it is a balancing act that gives me fits all tents react differently in my lung some time complimenting each other some times they are at odds with regard to environmental needs, and the biomass demands
Not only that. In the Settings. Last Settings of the First Column. It let’s you dial in your Outside Temperature and Humidity for outside your Room. Offset and much more. With this you can dial it to any chart you want/need.
I'd bet he's doing more with his life than you are man. If you've got nothing nice to say you should just not bother saying anything. What's it got to do with you and how does it affect your day? 'Stinkin thinkin' is right man
