Optimize Your Cannabis Production With a Grow Room Humidifier System

There’s no doubt about it—the industrial cannabis production industry is growing. 

Growers understand how important climate control is for cannabis cultivation and the challenges associated with it. Like all plants, cannabis breathes carbon dioxide (CO2) by opening its stomata—or, better known as, its pores. When these pores open, water is released from the plant and into the microclimate after traveling throughout its entire body. 

Plants are a lot like humans—they need water to thrive and survive. Low humidification levels can cause the cannabis plant to dehydrate and die due to the lack of water vapor. That’s why implementing a proper humidification system during the earliest stages of a cannabis plant’s life is crucial for successful growth.  Maintaining the proper vapor pressure deficit (VPD) throughout the process will allow for ultimate yields and quality.

Why Is Cannabis Humidity Important?

With the legalization of marijuana becoming more common, there are more cannabis greenhouses and warehouses across the country. Each of these locations has different humidity levels, which play into the optimal growth of cannabis crops. Whether you are in a dry climate or even in a moderately humid climate, all cannabis production facilities need cannabis humidifier systems.

Humidifiers can help regulate the humidity levels and keep them at the optimum level. Plants need a certain humidity level to flourish, and the plant’s root system must be moist. That’s where Fogco’s misting systems come in. With the use of a quality humidifier and zone controllers, it is possible to pre-plan temperature and humidity levels throughout the entire lifecycle of a cannabis plant. Not only does this avoid errors or miscalculations, but it also provides the optimal growth for each crop resulting in improved productivity, increased plant health, and higher profits.

How Can I Tell If Cannabis Needs More or Less Humidity?

The ideal humidity for cannabis changes depending on its growth state. For example, the recommended levels of a flowering plant range between 40-50%, while a seedling needs to be nurtured at around 70-80% humidity. During these critical stages of growth, a grower can use a traditional line system or Fogco’s humidification fan products for large open spaces.

Some cannabis production facilities require increased humidity levels during the various stages of propagation and harvest. When adding humidity in large open areas during the flowering stage, a traditional line system or one of Fogco’s proprietary Fog Fan products can be used.

How Cannabis Humidifiers Promote Healthy Plant Growth & Production

Water is a plant’s lifeline, and an industrial humidification system is designed to keep cannabis facilities functioning properly without the stress of creating optimum humidity. There are several reasons why humidification systems promote healthy plant growth:

1. Prevent Root Rot

Humidification systems help prevent the dreaded root rot. Root rot is caused by insufficient water and oxygen, causing the plant to wilt and look rather sickly. Overwatering and under-watering are two of the most common causes of root rot, so when the humidity levels are too high or low, the risk of root rot increases.

Root rot is contagious and can infect your entire crop if not addressed right away. By controlling your humidity levels with FogCo’s humidification systems, you can prevent root rot and avoid major financial setbacks.

2. Reduce Mold Risk

Mold is dangerous for plants and humans. Like root rot, mold can spread to neighboring cannabis plants within your facility. Molds like Aspergillus and Penicillium can be found indoors, can destroy your crop, and can harm your health. 

Maintaining your indoor humidity levels and vapor pressure deficit (VPD) will help prevent your plants from becoming susceptible to mold growth and will keep you and your team safe from breathing in dangerous spores.

3. Increase Savings

Proper humidification is vital for protecting your crop from infectious diseases—but it’s also a way to protect your wallet. If you are concerned about increased utility bills after installing your facility’s new climate control system, don’t be.

A Fogco humidification system can save you money by preventing damage to your cannabis facility’s machinery and electronics through the regulation of moisture levels. Since a humidification system helps ensure correct temperatures, the benefits of a Fogco system can appear as decreased utility costs over time.
