LOL hmmm i've never encountered this before. Try fans :) namely exhaust fans to pull the moisture out. Also a dry t-shirt hanging might catch air laden moisture just make sure its far from your lights.

This is another point. The high humidity means you might be at risk of electrical fire. Id take care of it soon like.

May or may not be accurate. I am pretty sure it would feel like someone hit you with a wet air rag.

My guess is you need to check again and if its still 100% and the air doesnt feel pysically wet when you open it its gotta be wrong.

You said you have a Lizzard tank?

I'm not sure, But i think if you take your finger, and rub it on the insides of the tank, you'll be able to feel how much moisture is in there... Just keep an open space, and let your humidity flow out

dude, put the gauge outside, then check the weather channel.

I've tried 3 different manual gauges and never found a single one that was accurate. Even when I went to digital I still have found pretty big variances. One of my damn meters read 43%ish when it was 80% or so. Caused damn grey mould.

Id say 40-60 range. Im not a perfectionist on readings though. The plant is going to grow regardless unless you supremely biff it.
