Vent outside the house and keep the room 45%This is my first grow. I am using a 4x2x5 tent with a vs2000 led light, 6" ac infinity inline with smart controller. I have three 6" fans for circulation. I am able to keep the tent at 80-82 during the day cycle and 77-78 during night cycle. My humidity can run anywhere from 35% to 60%+ on any given day outside the tent. I am getting ready to move to flower and I for life of me can not find a way to dehumidify the tent below 50-55%. Trying to get to 45%. It is located in a 13x22 room inside a closet that is 6ft x 4.5ft. The tent is vented to outside the closet. I have 3 plants in 5 gallon fabric pots which are taking about 1 gallon each every 2 days right now. That is one the increase. I have tried many things and cannot get there. Right now I have a small dehumidifier in the tent but it does keep up https://www.amazon.com/dp/B086GQBW4G?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
Can I please get some solid advice on how to get this humidity under control? Here is a pic from a few days ago :)View attachment 1242119
I have one. Just need a solid dehumidifier to match up with it.^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Don’t mess up your house
Get an inkbird humidity controller and hang the sensor at canopy level. Run your dehum off that
sounds like you need an acI have one. Just need a solid dehumidifier to match up with it.
at some point getting from a 1.0 vpd too a 1.4 vpd for let flower may not be worth it :(. so friggin close. I struggle to hold ,9 some days.sounds like you need an ac
not only because of vpd but high rh and fat nugs don’t mix well 95% of the time. i’ve seen people manage it but more often than not mold strikes. i’ve lost so much to mold before i set up a dedicated room with ac and dehums to keep it in check. the climate around here is 70% rh average so pulling in fresh air doesnt do much either.at some point getting from a 1.0 vpd too a 1.4 vpd for let flower may not be worth it :(. so friggin close.

you need a way bigger dehum. sorry no shortcuts and easy way outs on this, if you want to control humidity either reduce exhaust and run a decently sized dehum in the tent or build a lung room/space and run a decently sized dehum in there and pull air from the lung room. i have a room where i keep my tents in and i close the door to that room always and run a 55l dehum 24/7 keeping the room at 40%. dehums electricity consumption costs as much as all the lights i use in my 1 4x4 and 3 2x2s haha
This is the route I went. The room plus closet is less than 1000 square feet. Got a 4500 square foot dehumid that I keep right out side the closet. I can even keep the door of the room open enough so the dog can still get in and out :). It is working great. Mother nature is brutal though. Humidity here was 21% after a front went through and I had to supplement the humidifier I have. Talk about being pulled in two directions at one timeyou need a way bigger dehum. sorry no shortcuts and easy way outs on this, if you want to control humidity either reduce exhaust and run a decently sized dehum in the tent or build a lung room/space and run a decently sized dehum in there and pull air from the lung room. i have a room where i keep my tents in and i close the door to that room always and run a 55l dehum 24/7 keeping the room at 40%. dehums electricity consumption costs as much as all the lights i use in my 1 4x4 and 3 2x2s haha
i envy some of yous problems. its much cheaper and easier to add humidity than to substract it haha never gets below 65-70% around here. so a solid dehumidifier is a must.This is the route I went.

I noticed you didn't mention an exhaust fan with filter in your tent Should take care of humidityThis is my first grow.
