Maybe the herb is absorbing all the moister from the pack? How long has it been. Maybe it will equalize

You kinda answered you're own question in your question.
You have 4oz in a 1/2p bag
Grove bags should regulate the humidity their own as long as you didn't over dry. If you did then we'll that's why the rh is low.

Take it out of the bag. Put in another bag, with a moistened paper towel that is not touching the stuff. Let it sit for a bit. Then put back in the grove bag and see the humidity.

Once you overdry your plant that's pretty much it. You've already burnt off a lot of terps. It won't get better other than not being so dry. Drying is just as important as growing the weed. Need to invest in something that you can regulate the rh and temp while drying. There's some good articles around here that can help. Just use the search function or check in the subforum harvesting and drying or whatever it's called

1. Cutting and Trimming
- Cut branches into lengths of 6-8 inches.
- Remove all large and medium fan leaves, as well as crow's feet.

2. Hanging and Drying
- Hang trimmed branches in a room at 60°F (15.5°C) with 58% relative humidity (RH).
- Dry for 10 days.

3. Trimming Buds
- Trim buds in the same environment (60°F, 58% RH).

4. Curing Process
- Place trimmed buds in sealed containers at 60% RH.
- Burp containers daily for 10 minutes, rotating the buds, for 10 days.

5. Final Check
- Check stems and buds:
- Stems should snap.
- Buds should be slightly squishy, not overly dry.
- Note: Some strains have denser buds that don’t squish easily.
- If stems snap and buds are not overly dry, the cure is successful.

6. Storage
- Store in a completely dark, airtight container.
- No further burping is necessary if all previous steps were followed correctly.

*Notes*
+ or - 2 °F or % is not a big deal
Do not RUSH the process at any point, why throw away 3-4 months of work?

I think Grove bags are a gimmick. I can use any quality sealed bag/tote/barrel/container and get the same results. Properly dried & cured weed should keep proper moisture content without having to use special "terploc" technologies etc. A bag that is truly sealed will do the same job as a Grove or any other brand bag. All it is is plastic layers that contain the buds. Sandwich bags are the worst kind of bags to use, or ziploc anything like that, they ventilate regardless of how well you "seal" them.

Don't get me wrong Grove bags are great quality but a lot of the shit they say is marketing hogwash and they are way overpriced.

Yes it can be to big (that's what she said), you want to fill them bags to near capacity. Get smaller grove bags. If your in a pinch throw a small piece of damped (not wet) napkin (size of a quarter) into the bag. (don't use tap water)

Mini split might be what you're looking for to cool your room.
