Thermometer / Hygrometer
Hydroponic thermometers and hygrometers are important tools for monitoring the environmental conditions in hydroponic grow rooms. These devices measure temperature and humidity levels and provide growers with essential information to adjust environmental conditions for optimal plant growth and health.
A hydroponic thermometer measures the temperature in the grow room and displays it on a digital or analog display. Some thermometers also feature memory functions that allow growers to track temperature changes over time. Proper temperature ranges are essential for plant growth, with most hydroponic plants thriving in temperatures between 65°F and 80°F (18°C-27°C).
A hygrometer measures the relative humidity in the grow room, which is the amount of moisture in the air compared to the maximum amount of moisture the air can hold at that temperature. High humidity levels can lead to mold, mildew, and other fungal growth, while low humidity levels can cause plants to dry out and become stressed. Optimal humidity levels for most hydroponic plants are between 50% and 70%.
