Newbie mistake, maybe...? I got one of those IKEA Akerbar "greenhouses" and mounted a 2ft Barrina T5 inside it.... THEN noticed those lights are only ok with humidity up to 80%. I could just roll with it, as I'm not using it for super sensitive plants, but I'm wondering if I should just take it out and mount it over the top. Any thoughts?
Picture of what you mean please!!

I'm wondering if I should have done this, with the light on top of the glass
I mean, did you seal it? What humidity are you getting? I have different types of barrina, including t5 in upwards of 86% and they are fine. I do have fans circulating too though. But not always all the time
0 Mi piace Mounting it over top brings several concerns, additional height as well as diffusion through the glass
1 mi piace Humidity around 70% but ideally I'd like more. I haven't sealed it, just stopped a few gaps here and there so it's not tight but not as drafty as it could be. I have a tiny little USB fan in there too.
