Slow down your fan or ventilation. Crispy dry (over dry) in 7 days is too fast. Try to slow it down to take 10-14 days if you can. And if your product is drying faster do not be afraid to stop drying sooner so you do not over dry. As a test fill a small glass jar with flower and put a hygrometer (humidity gauge) inside the jar and close the lid. Check it 6+ hours later and you can roughly see the moisture content. 58-62% is good for curing. I like 58% or even lower for long term storage. For use I like it more moist like 62-64% which makes it softer and less crumbly and a bit sticky so it can pack better. Boveda packs are great at maintaining a humidity level. They are limited in their ability to add or remove moisture. So, it is best to get your humidity where you want BEFORE using Boveda. If you want to stick with using just Boveda then use more packs or larger packs than recommended until you get to the humidity you want. Then you can drop down to the recommended amount. If the humidity is low I wet a small piece of paper towel and put in the container. If it's too wet I leave the lid open. Then, after I have the humidity where I want then I put in Boveda to hold the humidity stable.

As Mouse said, yes you can. All you need to do is make sure that you have proper air circulation in the room, and the humidifier should not be directly under a hanging plant or branch. Ideal RH for drying is 60%, so most people need to use a humidifier in the dry room to get a proper dry. Ambient humidity in my area is 35% and that would be a 3-day dry.

Unless you live in a desert with less than 10% atmospheric humidity, there should be no need to have artificially high humidity in your drying space, this just increases the risk of moulds/fungus/rot. Controlling humidity by reducing air movement is far safer and easier.

yes you can, can also use wet towels hanging up to boost the RH. do not point the humidifier at any of the buds and have a fan also not pointed at the plants moving the air aorund. Good Luck!
