Hey buddy, your temp is what you need to be worrying about, not your humidity. Your humidity is fine, lower the temp though.
Peace

Your temperature is a little on the high side, ideally it should be no higher than 85, but that won't be a problem as long as 1) you watch your watering schedule, in higher temperatures the plants use more water, therefore adjust the frequency accordingly and 2) that the minimum temperature is within 10 degrees of the maximum, therefore no lower than 20. Otherwise excessive stretching takes place, the narrower the difference in min/max temperatures the less stretching and vice versa.

RH of 25 is fine for flowering, but again watch your watering, low humidity equals an increase in plant transpiration and accordingly an increase in water intake. Low RH in flowering is preferable to high for protection against but rot and mould which thrives in the dense buds and high humid conditions.

plants create more resin to gain moisture from the air, thus low humidity will give resinous bud. yippy yie yay
