oh and 1 more thing the rooms kinda tight and ther touching a little how easy is it to get mold or anything like that?

70% rh is not ok. You will get mold
Better at least get the air moving around in there..

Maintain no more than 65% with light air movement. 70 deg in the dark until they snap.

Be careful! you have 3 strikes already,high humidity,packed in plants and big fans still on.

agree.
In this case the argument about removal vs no removal of fans in early cure is trumped by your situation.
Strip off all those fans.
Keep air moving and get that humidity below 65%.
Congrats on the harvest.

Its really Dry where i live right now(1st day of summer!! :woot: ) bout 20% RH
So, I have to use a humidifier in the tent i dry in
But, to keep it around 50%..I have to set a timer for it to go off and on...lol
