How are you enriching? Are u using a generator? Are u using a tank with a controller of some type? If ur using a generator then my guess is the burners are making ur temps rise and hot air can hold more moisture than cold air. So mb that's why ur Rh is up?.? Other than that I'm clueless because Rh and CO2 are two different things. One shouldnt effect the other.

yup if using a burner then in may be heating your area more than before. have you been having to water more often?

Plants could be transpiring more due to the added CO2 (which would cause them to respire more). That's one potential link that comes to mind, other than it being burner-related.

If this were so you'd also notice needing to water more frequently.

What you didn't mention is the source of the CO2 and how much the RH actually went up.
