OK so i am doing an auto grow and my last crop of normal didnt go to plan, seemed very dry and i dunno wether this was to do with humidity or not as i am using biocanna flores ect... for nutes.

Anyways its on a 16/8 cycle with temps ranging from 72F - 91F which i know is too much i have a heater in tent to keep temps up but can get it any warmer on the dark cycle :( humidity ranges from 40-45 whilst the light is on and i have checked and i am guessing must rise up to 80+ when light is off, does anyone know the best way to keep the humidity at a constant level even if it means buying a de/humidifier? Anyone know a good cheap one that can just control it at a steady level at all times?
 
Your humidity sounds reasonable, and if you aren't experiencing mold issues, doesn't sound like a problem to me.

I'd be more concerned with the 91 degree peak temp in the tent. Over 85 degrees without CO2 enrichment is inhibiting plant growth.

Keep your absolute never exceed temp at 86f. Unless you're running CO², upper seventies to 82 is best.

I LIKE my RH in the upper sixties to seventies in bloom, but then I do realize I'm in the minority. That said, 95% is too much of a good thing- soooo get a hygrostat (just like a thermostat, only for RH) and use it to control a vent fan to keep such spikes in check.
