His initial post was saying his humidity was getting to 68% due to one of his lights being out, otherwise you’re right. But he may need both depending on what his actual issue is.I wouldn't be employing a dehumidifier at this point if you're trying to raise the humidity in your room. A humidifier is what you want.

Here is one method https://www.neptunecigar.com/tips/how-to-calibrate-your-hygrometerthanks @RootsRuler
is there a way i can test each meter without having something to calibrate them against ?
If you don't have a meter that you can use to calibrate you're going to have to go with what you got. You have 3 meters and a dehu. 2 out of the 3 are pegging your humidity levels at 55%+ and your dehu is saying 58%. Since 2 out of the 3 are within range of your dehu readings I would use your dehu as your guide.thanks @RootsRuler

There ya go!!!
thanks mate, i will give this a go tomorrow if i can buy some zip bags .
would 58% be a problem . i think i can get it down to about 50% if i urn the temperature down to about 20C . i have about 2 - 3 weeks of flowering leftIf you don't have a meter that you can use to calibrate you're going to have to go with what you got.

No not really unless you want to spring for something like a wet bulb. Those ain’t cheap. Meteorology equipment.thanks mate, i will give this a go tomorrow if i can buy some zip bags .
do you know of any accurate meters i might be able to buy . i am in thailand and have just bought these ones from lazada which is similar to ebay or amazon .

If you keep air moving around you can safely get buy at 50% in flower.would 58% be a problem . i think i can get it down to about 50% if i urn the temperature down to about 20C . i have about 2 - 3 weeks of flowering left
thanks @freezeland2No not really unless you want to spring for something like a wet bulb. Those ain’t cheap. Meteorology equipment.
i will do this tomorrow , thanks @elusiveshameDon't forget to mention where the locations of the hygrometers are. Different parts of the room will have different humidity levels. Closer to the soil (especially after watering) will have higher humidity than other spots in the room. Having a hygrometer in one plants canopy will read different from the next, one by the AC/window, closer to the light cone, etc. IMO, OP will need to check various spots over the course of an hour or 2 to find out where the trouble spots are and go from there, especially since the room is around 64^2'
what would be the danger zone ?If you keep air moving around you can safely get buy at 50% in flower.
if i can't get the RH down via AC or the dehumidifier i will add another fan , i have 2 big ones and 2 small ones already , 6 inch extraction and inlet fanIf you keep air moving around you can safely get buy at 50% in flower.
very good pointIMO, your hygrometers should be located between the light and maybe slightly below the canopy and if you have a third, in between the 2.
Your plants aren’t on top of the light, so those readings aren’t helpful.
