how can i lower humidity ??

so im going to go to flower next week and the humidity is staying at 50% or above no sings of problems with the plant or bugs or mildew , but everything i have read says when going to flower it should be around 40% rh temps are around 78-80 when lights are on in soil 3 gal pots ffof water every 4-5 days . im out of cash to buy a dehumidifer any suggestions ?

bump how come i always get lookers but no help???

I asked this same question about a week or 10 days ago and got a few responses.

The input I received was to buy a de-humidifier and increase air circulation. I improved circulation and mine is back within reasonable ranges.

Yeah, definitely go for another fan. The air movement & circulation, especially if you can bring new air in (and don't live in a super humid climate)... That will definitely help bring the humidity down some. Not sure if that will be enough though.

Ventilation will help indeed.. But, i think you'll need to get some money together and grab that dehumidifier..

I run a bunch of dwc bubbler buckets, and my humidity was near 80%!!!!

I grabbed a dehumidifier, its now in the 40's... and tats great considering I have a grip buckets of water in a bedroom.

Think thats your only option.

whats a good one for a reasonable price looked at home depot web site they were more than i thouht they would be . if i cant get a money together will i take a huge risk of ruining my flowers ?

No, I've done .6gram/watt with humidity at a constant 60-63%. That being said I'd have prolly done 10% better with 40-50% humidity. It's important, but it isnt a gamebreaker. One really huge issue with the 60%+ humidity is that when you have your room at 80 degrees you have made one hell of a mite farm. I've seen slight outbreaks of mites turn into infestations when temps go from 75 to 80, and humidity got from 50 to 60%. Bugs just THRIVE at the higher ends of temp/humidity.

so far so good with the bugs a few here and there but got sticky tape up too . man i would be stoked to get .6 on this grow im hoping for .5 gram per watt got four plants two are female clones other are bagseed crossing my fingers there girls too but no sings of hairs like the clones they are allready showing pistels and im not even done with my veg yet. thanks for all the help from everyone so far.
