Humidifier location problems

So I plan to transplant very soon and set up my scrog net. The way I have things set up now is I have the pots slightly off center in the grow tent to make room for the humidifer. But once I transplant and set up the scrog net, I'd like everything centered, and that wont leave room to place the humidifer. But without the humidifier my rh levels drop between 20-30%. Which I'm sure will be great for flowering when the plants are bigger and will transpire enough to equalize it out to around 35-40. But for now I'm not sure what to do. Would it damage my intake if I placed it directly infront of the pipe? Or relatively close to it?
I feel it may get uncomfortable in the house if I were to maintain the whole room to 50% RH+.
Or would the best solution be to just get past my OCD, and keep them slightly off center to fit the humidifier?
And that is if the new pots aren't even too large to fit it alltogether

not totally helpful, but im just fixing to buy a humidifier too, im going to place mine above the pots, i have zero room on the floor, im sure this will work for you too ?

I thought about thay also, I'm just worried about it being too close to the lights. That would be game over if the lights quit working from the humidity flowing directly in.
But hmm maybe I could set it up at the perfect height. Maybe place it right on top of my scrog board

Any good grow light should be ip68 complaint. Meaning its rated for humid settings so it shouldn't be an issue.

But if you have straight up water vapor flowing into any light, I'm sure that can easily damage it

But maybe I'm wrong. And if I am, then that's perfect and I have nothing to worry about

Can you have it outside the tent and have it in front of whatever bottom screen you have open so that it gets sucked in the tent?

any of your solutions would be fine

plants would be fine at 30% RH

also 50% RH wouldn't be uncomfortable. its 75F 60%RH where i live and more people keep moving here every day.

Right now I have positive pressure in the tent, and I cant have anything else open because the smell is strong already as it is.
If I had negative pressure I could probably work that out, i just need to get a booster fan for my exaust which i cant get for a while.

I would and do run negative pressure it ensures no smell goes anywhere but through the filter.

I have two different kinds of humidifiers. One has a heater in it,warms the water and puts out a shitload of visible 'mist'. The other is called a 'cool water' (by sunbeam) and puts out no visible mist.i have two of these running in a very small veg cab,and have no problems. I've been running them in there with a 4' t5 light for over a year with no problems.it is tucked in a corner,I wouldn't want either Huey too close to a light though.does your humidifier put out mist you can see?

think about the old street lights out in the wind an rain just ya normal hps

Well I worked it out to fit it in there.
I couldn't set it on the scrog board because the dowel rods I used to build it aren't strong enough to hold a gallon of water.
Only problem is it blows directly onto a couple sets of leafs and they dont get soaked just damp. Their the bottom most set so I plan to chop em off anyways
