Easy, Cheap way to Drop Humidity

i want to drop the humidity some in the closet...

a dehumidifier is not an option due to i am broke

any ideas?/suggestions much appreciated

ventilation with fans.

just by turning my fan on I can drop room RH from 60 to 20 in about 10 minutes.

I am running a 6" eclipse fan (640 cfm i believe) in an 8x8x8, so recycling the air a little more than 1 time per minute.

use moisture absorbing buckets, they are meant to lower humidity at walmart or a boating store...

i noticed yesterday that my nearby rite-aid had put out a number of small fans and those tower air purifiers ranging from about $15-60, i would love to get an air purifier for the fan action and the carbon scrubber...maybe later

tell me more about these buckets...am i putting my plants in these buckets or what? seems the only logical way but i dunno

thanks for the replies

A Bowl of Silica Gel...dont know who sells it tho

Electic Heat Strip

i was thinkin silica gel...maybe just hit up a shoe store and walk out with a handful or so. an electric heat strip just doesnt sound like its for me, not really wanting to bring the temp up any and i dont know seems like a fire hazard for sure, dont want my babies to catch a flame before their ready to
