What's the best way to control humidity when dealing with hydroponics? Ghost cabinet stealth grow box by Unique Hydroponics its a 15x9x36 cab...two plants in the bloom stage. I'm at 70% humidity, which I know is high, but no issues with the plant. I have the journal posted

Other than just venting air out and recirculating I would say get the room that cab is in dehumidified. Looks pretty small to fit anything in there. If you get the main room humidity down it will draw that air into the cab. If you can fit something in there do it, and run it at night, to keep it from jumping up at lights out. It will also heat the space at night. That how I ran a small cab, but that looks really small so wasn't sure anything can go in there.

Dehumidify the air in the room containing your grow cabinet. Your cabinet should pull enough outside air for this to do the trick. Attempting to put a dehumidifier inside a tent will increase the temperature and do very little else. I re-purpose my dehumidifier run-off (low PPM, ~20) to build my next reservoir.

I would go with a wall mounted dehumidifier and place it where you think best in the light box. Other than that only dehumidifing the room the tent is in, air movement, and venting will do anything. Now the thing about dehumidifiers in the tent is that bringing in a lot of outside air slows them down but they will still drop the humidity IF you are dehumidifing the outside room where the air is coming from, this works better BTW. If you place in the tent might want to put the intake fans on a timer and run them only periodically giving the dehumids a chance to help more at lights out at least so heat isnt an issue. Good luck this is just what I have done.
