Veg and flowering; Ideal humidity level?

whats the ideal humidity level for vegetation and flowering. if my vegetation humidity is around 30-35, how much will that effect growth?

I shoot for the 50s for veg and the 40s for flower - into the 30s for late flower if I can get it. 30s is low for veg, I'd hang up wet towels and stuff like that.

I've read that higher humidity, upper 40s and above can effect your grows potency in a bad way. Higher humidity results in wider leaves and less resin production. The plants might look great, but are worthless to smoke. Is this a true assessment of the humidity factor?

No, it is not. I live in florida, the humidity is ungodly most of the year. Right now it's in the eighty percent range outside. It is generally in the nineties in the mornings, plenty of weed being grown outdoors here. Higher humidity levels when vegging is generally good, above fifty percent. With higher humidity you do not need to water as much. Lower humidity for flowering, below fifty percent. With lower humidity your plants will need more water. Unless your humidity is above seventy percent where mold can start, I wouldn't worry. Personally I think too much is made about humidity. Plants do grow outdoors.
