Should I shower in my grow room?

I'm wondering if I should be taking a shower in my grow room? I have a few plants in a corner of my 10' x 5' bathroom. I installed a bathroom vet fan that pulls 90 cfm of air out of the room and right outside. And I do run it when im in the shower. I'm also using a 400 MH/HPS light. My room has between 30-40% humidity, and at about 75-85 degrees. What I am most worried about is condensation on my HID? What do you all think should I continue to shower in my bathroom/grow-room or not? If included some pics to help thanks!

it probly jus increases the humidity a whole lot, if you have a window in there leave it open, and shower at night so the neighbors cant take a peak.

Humidity not too big a deal as long as It don't bust my light bulb, lol I have been taking my shower a lot quicker than I would like to. Especially this time of year with a foot of snow outside LOL. thanks for the help I started a journal I will keep you all posted !

think i read alot of things that say that young plants love humidity............. and i am sure others may agree with me that 90 cfm for that size a space isnt enough. but as long as your temps are low i guess you should be fine, dunno for sure but i think by me bring it up somebody will have some facts, then maybe somebody will proboly have facts to argue with those facts and so on and so on........ as for the HID lights in the fog, my first hps light was an old street light. these lights are used outdoors alot, not sure how that translates to your light. i assume yours has no lense.
so i says take quick showers and leave door open in bathroom. when u flower i would find a way to avoid making wet buds....... mold, budrot, ewwww
oh and go pats bro, this snow sux
