    Humidity issue from exhaust fan, any suggestions?

    So I'm just setting up a new grow tent in a new space and I've been battling low humidity. I purchased a small humidifier which works well on its own. When I turn the exhaust fan on, on lowest setting, the humidity drops down to around 45~40; is that too low to keep the humidity?

I started by removing all the drawers, and roller tracks so it was just the metal shell of the filing cabinet. I then removed the faces of the drawers and...
