I am 25 days in flower and my RH hits up to 80%. I have searched every local dehumidifier merchant and the products i found were either too expensive or not efficient. Any ideas? I could even use something temporary, until i get some money for something more expensive. Ideas? I am in a growtent 0.76m*0.76m*1.20m

Some specifications for my growing area :
100mm intake fan
125mm outake fan, passing through a carbon filter
400watt lumatek hps
16watt fan for circulation

Agreed, an ac can help keep temps under control (high humidity is usually accompanied by high temps) and will also keep your rh down.

But if your setup is like mine, and doesn't go above 73°F @ 1000 watts then an air conditioner might make it too cold before it would become effective as a dehumidifier.

Although what's your setup that might be helpful in determining the start of the humidity...
As i have stated, i have an intake fan as well as an outake fan. Also a fan for circulation inside the tent. My house has a garden
. That's where the humidity comes from. Temps are rather low inside. 7-12c at night and 20-22c in the morning-noon. I have humidity issues on my walls etc. It is fucking moist..the house is old but not well maintained. Ideas?

Well where does your intake fan draw air from? If it's from inside your house theres your answer, draw air from outside. Also I wouldn't run two fans I would just connect an exhaust fan and run a duct from outside into the tent so the exhaust fan draws the air in.
