ive done a lot of searching on this and i know most people say humidity during flowering should be somewhere below 50-55% never more than 60%. how important is this? ive been in 12/12 light for about 3 weeks and i have trouble keeping humidity low, sometimes it goes up to 60-62. is low humidity only important at the end of flowering? does it affect yield?? my plants seem to be ok, for now.... thx!

It matters more as flowering goes on but 60% is too high. The danger is bud rot which can ruin a whole crop. A dehumidifier is worth the investment. I try to keep humidity at 50 or below and if possible down into the 30s.

I've seen mine as high as 73% and never had a problem with bud rot. I tried to keep it low but the dehumidifier really pumps out the heat. Ventilation is the key, I vent 15 mins every hour when the lights are off and every 2 hours when the lights are on.
