Re: GTP for free

Make sure you have your humidity drop throughout the day. GTPs need a dry out period. My GTPs go from 95% in the morning to 45 to 50% at night.

Shouldn't it rise at night? It does dry out in there, I just usually take pics while misting and what not and the hygro is at the bottom where its more moist (sphagnum and 6 inches of bioactive substrate) so it always reads higher. It doesn't ever drop to 50 % though....the low on my hygro says 57% and its usually mid 60's when its 'dry'

Re: GTP for free

I raised the hygro off the ground and clipped it to a tree mid way through. It says 68 now and its still early in the AM. temps are from 86 to 77 top to bottom. If it says 68 mid way up its obviously less near the ceramic. I think its good now, will see what happens tomorrow.
