Greenhouse Humidity Control
Maintaining proper humidity inside a greenhouse is essential for achieving healthy plant growth, preventing disease, and ensuring optimal yields. Humidity plays a major role in plant transpiration, nutrient absorption, and overall plant physiology. When humidity is too high, mold, mildew, and fungal diseases can spread rapidly. When it is too low, plants lose moisture faster than they can absorb it, resulting in stress and reduced productivity. Modern greenhouses rely on humidity sensors, ventilation systems, misting units, and automated controls to maintain a stable growing environment. A key element of successful humidity management is using real-time monitoring tools—such as the sensor shown in the image—to track moisture levels and trigger corrective actions. Effective humidity control strategies include proper air circulation, adjusting temperature setpoints, integrating dehumidification when needed, and managing irrigation practices to reduce excess moisture. These practi...
