I keep my RH between 50-58 during veg and 40-50 during flowering first month or so then I drop low as I can, one way I control my RH is by trimming my plants, if the room is small and there's a lot of big plants RH becomes an issue to control, unless you buy a big commercial dehumidifier, the regular 70-90 pints Cant keep up without pruning the big fan leaves.
I use Inkbird Pre-wired Humidifier Dehumidifier, it's $35 an works better then the $200-400 hydroponic versions aimed towards marijuana growers, way over priced!! I also use Bayite BTC211 1650W Digital Temperature Controler for the temperature, you can hook up exhaust fan and heater to it, or Portable AC it works great, the calibrations on both devices are off, but you can calibrate and waaalaaaa under $100 u got a fully controlled room!!
Im sure that will work just fine, However I prefer an always on dehue/hue controlled by a room controller. Mod the dehumidifier to drain into the humidifier or res. that is easy and you never need to worry about dumping it. Ill be moving up to a very efficient grow atmosfeer Putting the buckets on tables just high enough to allow for having the res underneath. Total cost for the overhaul including lights and AC thats currently nonexistent.... $10,000. Kinda pumped as well. But thats another thread for another day.
