I live in a really humid area and rh in my flower tent is 55-65% RH and I can’t seem to bring it down. I know dehumidifying the room is the ideal option but unfortunately i am really tight on money a dehumidifier. I do have a Honewell air purifier with a carbon filter + a brand new true hepa filter. Can i use it inside the tent a go on with the grow without mold issues?
True hepa filters for mold?

I don't think that filter will prevent any issues caused by too high humidity. You'd be better off using biofungicides like Southern Ag Biological Fungicide, along with neem/silica foliar spray, and even potassium bicarbonate. Set yourself up for success as best you can. You know that you're likely to have issues so prevention is key. I'd spray those things on alternate weeks up until buds start to form, then pray to the gods of your ancestors during flower!
