Humidity to high

Humidity is running about 83. I think it's a little on the high side. How do I get it down? Do I heed to run a inline fan sucking the room air out? Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Are you running a fan to keep air circulating throughout/around your plant(s)?

Yeah. I'm running a oscillating 18" fan.

an exhaust fan with a passive intake will help alot.

That's was what I was thinking. I'm only in day two of flowering and don't want to learn anything the hard way this far into my grow. I havent started to run any fans other than the ocsillating fan. I will be adding a 6" inline booster fan for the 600 HPS light and a 4" inline booster fan to bring fresh air into the room. Do I need another fan to just take air out of the room for the high humidity?

whats the size of the room you need to vent? whats your temps? those boosters dont move much air especially with that 600w.

lets say you were gonna get a decent exhaust fan. 6" votex gonna move over 430 cfm. no intake fan but probly need like a 7" passive intake hole.

now if you gotta use the boosters then i would probly try the 4 " hooked to the light as a cooltube and the 6" as an exhaust. or use them both as just exhaust with 2 seperate holes to exit and maybe a 5" pasive intake. the passive intake should be slightly larger than the exhaust hole but since those boosters dont move much air than a 5 should be good.

i picked up a stanly blower for this year and it will work nice.
i will get a vortex or valueline inline centrifugal fan next year.
