You would probably need a 6 inch extractor to help control the humidty .
I have had problems with it over the years especially in summer.
Dehumidifiers are your best bet , but they are expensive and noisy.
If you can't install a dehumidifier then I suggest you keep air flow constant in your tent . Mold will only really grow in stagnant humid air . So if you increase the air flow in the tent you should be able to avoid it.
I've flowered in constant 70 percent humidty . But I kept the oscillating fan on them at all times and avoided any problems .

Try putting the "air in" fan further away from your exhaust fan. I imagine your exhaust fan is sucking the air in fans air out, before the air in fans air has had a chance to circulate your in tent, leaving behind the humid warm air. Try organizing your fans so they are at opposite sides or the air in fan is at the bottom, while leaving the exhaust at the top to get the warm and humid air out. I believe 8 inches apart is not ideal, you should have a cross flow effect happening, with the fans as far apart as possible. Hope this helps,.... Organoman.

Male, Female or Herm?My grow shed spiked into the low 90's for a couple days before I bought a portable AC unit. I'm wondering if the heat stressed my plants and caused them to Herm?
I just posted all the pictures I have Week1 through Week 8 of my first grow. Any other comments would be appreciated.

Which plants to keep?How do I choose which plants to keep in the tent?
I’d like to keep 2 of the 4. The other 2 will go outdoor in 20 days. So might top again
2 the right have been growing thicker. Bushier, a bit bigger fan leaves. But a bit slower.
2 on the left skinnier, longer braches. A bit quickWeek 6

HumidifiersHow close should I have my humidifier to my plant?
It’s a warm mist humidifier. Trying to get my humidity right. Going to use one in the tent.
This is temporary solution.
The picture is just used as a gauge. It’s below the plant. Is it too close to the plant?
