Dense flowering plants in grow tent advice

Plants keep growing and my grow tent is completely packed. I'm pretty worried about getting PM or bud rot/mold but this is my first grow so I'm not sure if I'm over panicking.

I have removed a couple of leaves to allow for better airflow but they are so bushy without removing a large amount I feel like I can't keep up.

36 days since flip and I'm growing a fast strain 1:2 CBD:THC which says 6-8 weeks flowering time. I'm wondering if I should chop down a couple of these plants to help with airflow and prevent issues.

Growing in coco watering 3x a day

Daytime humidity is around 47-51% above the canopy and 48-52% inside the canopy.
Nighttime humidity is around 40-44% above the canopy and 42-46% inside the canopy.

Daytime temp is around 72-75. Nighttime temp is 69-73

Attached are the pictures and any advice would be great. The picture with a single plant is one that seems further along to me but again I still don't have much of a clue.

Struggled to get a clear picture using the microscope cam so let me know if you need a better one

Yeah, that looks pretty solid. If anything you can clean up/strip the bottom thirds of the plants that are not getting much light. This will allow for better airflow and let those top buds benefit from the removal of suckers.

Your humidity looks under control, I counted two fans up top, as long as they are moving the air pretty good I think you're gonna be fine. Those look good.

Breeder timelines are not set in stone so don't grow by a calendar and be prepared for them to go a few weeks longer than that estimation.

I went a bit fan crazy and have 4 total. One blowing over the lights, one oscillating pointed at the canopy and two down below pointed in different directions. The extractor fan is running 24/7 at this point on full blast.

One of the buds is slightly touching the tent walls but im struggling to bend that back inwards. Do you think its ok to leave it like that or should I chop it down?

Nothing wrong with airflow. I like an oscillating tower fan in the corner of my tents and two or three clip on desk fans up above.

Just wrap a piece of plant wire around it and hook it to another stalk nearby. If you start to get more tipping over, you can add plant stakes or yoyos suspended from the top. No need to chop it, sometimes they touch the walls.
