By as much as 15% or more humidity and thats a massive difference in the uptake and transportation if nutrients.
For the record 75-77f LEAF temps is your goal not an arbitrary room temp. Again it gets you close but some must run room temps of 75F to reach those leaf temps and some can run 90F and reach those leafs temps. Using an IR temp gun that costs $20 takes the guess work out
