A pan of water with a sponge in it would work. I'm with RonnieB; I get too much humidity at times, but I grow hydro.
What are you folks using to add humidity to small tents (3x3)(2x4)?

thank you ,I got a levoil 200 and it seems to do ok for my small tent ,i am going to try this one for my 2x4this Alinke humidifier holds 9 liters. You can set the humidity level. And very small footprint in my 2x4 tent.
I got it discounted at Amazon Warehouse for $80 shipped. Good for at least 30 hours.
I have a 20"x36x61" and have planted 12 seeds and with that humidifier i can get it around 80.
Im sure by the time i get my act together and get the temp and hum. right it will be time to dehumidify !

do I pH that water ? sorry ,just lit up and the first five minutes are my most dumbest ones .... thank you !
I use a room humidifier just outside my tent with two of the tent vent holes open. It brings the humidity up in the tent without me having to worry about having to much humidity in the tent. My tent is 2x4

I would love that but my basement is unfinished and would suck up water like I do with coffee in the am but all day!
I am starting seeds so i want high humidity .As we get on into the years sure things will change
Want to make sure you have a way to control the humidity if it’s in the tent. My humidifier is to much for the inside of my tent. I don’t like the leaves getting soaking wet. mine has an adjustment but even on low it’s to much inside the tent. I have had luck with my small oil diffuser and or a half bucket of water with a wet towel thrown across it laying in the bottom floor of the tent. You would be surprised how much this helps in a small tent even with cool lights

Thank you ,I have it on high to give me a high humidity with reptile htr bulbs 2x75 watt controlled by a line voltage thermostat.I have those sensor plus so i can track temps and hum. Once the seeds have cracked my hum. on auto keeps it at 50rh + or _
my ac infinitiy fans will turn on if its too much. Looking forward to spring ,less heat ,more humidity. BUT I will say Im open to do what has to be done when it needs to be done what ever way works. I listen to all points of view with my naturaly big ears ...!

Never wanted any moisture in my grow room.
The plants only need that on the roots.
PM will kick your *** if your not careful.

I have it up high because im popping seeds.
Normally I think i can keep it around 40 to 50
what humidity do you keep it at ?
My past experiences were 3 separate rooms in the basement with hps and metal halide

Plants starting out as seedlings and young vegging ones are OK in 70% , when you get to flower you want it lower than 50% , I set mine at 50% in flower and never had PM on inside grow yet.
Outdoors always I treat every 2 weeks with a Greencure or like product. (not avail anymore)
But GreenCure® is a potassium bicarbonate . It can be bought on Ebay if needed .
I use 1tablespoon per gal in pump up sprayer.

I you can keep it around 60% during veg and they should be fine, then into flower drop it 50% or less

Those big bags will hold more moisture and contribute to the humidity levels too
