0% humidity

Is 0% humidity in flowering okay or not?

I'm inclined to a yes, as I found someone who grows absolutely massive healthy plants in a high altitude desert climate with 0% humidity through flowering.

"Low humidity can be a good thing. Many strains grown in high altitude, low humidity climates develope heavier trichome production.

I actually live in a high elevation desert climate... the issue isn't humidity, it's heat. I grow from seed to harvest in 0%-10% humidity with no ill effect. Transpiration and vapor pressure deficit is definitely elevated but as long as the root zone remains well watered, there's absolutely no ill effects.


Here are a few samples of my buds grown in 0% percent humidity:

I'm beginning to feel like it's a blessing to live in such an arid climate. Low humidity does amazing things to cannabis flowers."

That's the guy, and there are others too. I came to this because I grow in a closet as I have no other space to grow in. I had problems in my last grow with bud rot as there is no ventilation besides keeping the closet door open.

Without circulation it's problematic at night when the door is closed. I want to use a dehumidifier for my next flowering phase but as the closet is small I'm sure it will reduce my humidity to 0% which is why I'm trying to figure out if it's okay, or find some other solution.

Yes I understand that after watering there will be some level of humidity. My question was regarding the possibility of flowering cannabis with very low humidity levels (1-10%).
