i have been growing this plant thus far with RH 10% and lower... will this become a problem for me sometime in the near future (flower) ? or will i be fine

if not how can i increase humidity without having to get a humidifier -_-

edit-

maybe cause its winter outside and i got my bedroom window open? to keep my box temps at 75-77... when its closed and the box is closed temps go up to a high of 84.3 ( this would only occur at night though cause i cant have that light shining out my bedroom window lol)

i still have to add a fan blowing air out my box

humidty should be high for seedlings and clones not so important for bigger healthier plants. although a simple method of raising humidity in your room is to just put a couple big bowls of water in there with the plants. looking

Yes it will. Where are you growing with a RH of 10%. That's crazy. Get a bucket of water or moist towel and stick it in the room.

Just had a similar problem mate, I got a pillow, put it in a washing up bowl and soaked it with water. My room reads an average50-54% now.
