Next question guys , Humidity , what is the ideal range , I know this will become a issue later in the year , also I have a dehumidifier that will be able to drop the room down to 30% in abut 5 minutes .

I think 0% is good not totally sure 35% is about the max you want.

I keep my max humidity at 53% in flower. I think they recommend 40-60 in veg, then dropping it down to 40-50 in flower to molds from forming. Its been awhile since I've looked those up, but I'm pretty sure thats right. Thats what I go by anyway.

I usually try for a little less than that, but it also depends on the strain I'm growing. Heavy indica with super dense buds, I got for a lower humidity. Opposite for Sativa obviously. But I've found around 35% is just fine for about any strain the whole way through.
But If' I'm going to be completely honest, I don' pay super close attention unless I see it climing up into the 50's

Its been awhile since I've grown a dense indica but come to think of it I recall getting PM @ 45%. This was without proper air circulation as well. You can have a higher humidity if you keep the air flowing through the entire plant zone and moving through the garden. Stale humid air is much worse than moving humid air.
Its one of the reason's I've stuck with the Grapegod; it has that perfect branch density. The spacing on it eliminates those damp zones that PM likes to show up at. It has that open structure like a sativa but more of an indica bud.
I haven't cared about humidity in a long time either. The last problems I had was when I was trying out a fan controller that had day/night temps but not humidity, so the night time would be cool and humidity would skyrocket to 90%+.
