Can I have some advices on how to lower my humidity? I’m having some troubles lowering it since my plant is now flowering. Usually I can’t lower it from 60% while my temps are always on 27/28 C during lights on. I will leave a pic of my setup here. Should I change something?

Besides more exhaust there's a few pointers: Buy a 2x 15L buckets. Drill holes on the upper half of the bucket. Fill the bottom half with cat litter and fill the upper half with coal. It will suck much humidity. Best way to fight humidity inside the grow tent is by fighting it in the space outside too. If the air going in is drier you'll manage to drop humidity. There's many plants to have indoors in our houses that regulate humidity. You almost don't need to water them as they get almost everything from the air. Also add a 16"fan to the room outside and allow for more air circulation where you have you're tent.

First , plenty of wise solutions about setup. Second - why you want to lover it ? Find VPD charts for weed. Even in late flower I rarely bump into lower then 55 Rh . Why you need it ask yourself ???

Also you have 2x 90 degrees on your exhaust tube. That's bad. It reduces airflow. You're using up let's say 40w for the exhaust fan but you only taking advantage of 60% of it's power. You can assume 10-20% drop in effectiveness of your exhaust fan if the exhaust tube has hard turns like that.

Have you tried getting a dehumidifier? Could be a good investment for you. In the meantime you can turn up the airflow and possibly cut back a little bit on watering for the next few days or a week to see if that helps. If you can circulate old air out and new air in with a somewhat rapid pace, that usually brings humidity down pretty significantly for me

Hast du die Möglichkeit, die Lüfterleistung etwas zu erhöhen ? Und liegt das Problem eventuell bereits an einer sehr hohen Umgebungs Luftfeuchtigkeit? Dann würden mir nur Luftentfeuchter Boxen einfallen.. Die arbeiten mit salzbeuteln. Die Leistung der Abluft lässt sich eventuell noch etwas steigern, wenn du den Kohlefilter hinter den Lüfter montierst, statt davor. Der wäre dann gegebenenfalls wohl außerhalb deiner Box 🤔
