Flower and veg in the same space. Humidity Question

I am growing in a relatively small space, roughly 8' x 12'. I have a 4x4 tent that I have been using exclusively. Mars Hydro sent a free 150 watt blurple along with the TS3000 I bought. I decided to take clones and try vegging them with the blurple (no tent) while the tent flowers. I have the blurple mounted directly next to the tent. I went a bit overboard keeping the light away from the tent's only open intake. So far so good, I think it will work. My question is about humidity. I've read that flowering plants like the humidity lower, veg likes it higher. Which is more important? I had been running a humidifier in the veg space, but of course some of that gets pulled into the tent. I can put a dehumidifier in the room, but I'm afraid it will make the veg space too dry. The tent was reading 70% humidity with the humidifier running. I have had the humidifier off for a day now, tent is reading around 60%. The veg space will get down near 40% with the dehumidifier running. Which phase do I cater to? Seems like keeping the flowering plants happy is more important. What do you guys think?

Where I live there is zero humidity 90% of the year and the plants never really seem to give a shit. That being said I tend to avoid strains that are built for tropical climates, cause I don't want to waste time if that actually is a problem. I guess what I'm saying is cross that bridge when you get to it, until then they will survive and produce about a pound.

Thanks. Makes sense. I make a habit out of overthinking things. I'll leave things be, no humidifier, until something starts to show some stress. I have three small fans in the tent, I don't think mold should be a problem.
