Power went out while drying harvest

Power went out and has been out for 2 days now.

They are in a sealed dark room and temp is 73 with humidity also around 73. I go in there and it doesn't feel hot or humid. Colder if anything.

I have a gas generator and could run the dehu but that will raise the temp and lower the humidity which from my understanding will dry them out faster. I also have fans I could plug into the generator as well (not pointing at the buds of course) to help with heat and open up the sealed room to let heat out if it gets to hot (smell would escape as well but also have a scrubber I could plug in to help).
My outdoor temps yesterday were around 90 degrees yesterday.

Aka is it best to just leave it at 73/73 or try and get the humidity down to around 50% but raise temps to prob 85 degrees.

73/73 vs 85/50

Thanks!

You may get bud rot with no airflow though...I would fire up the generator and use it to control your environment as best you can or atleast to fire up some fans in there.

So, the humidity is actually like 60% and not 73 so I think I will be fine though will prob do like you said with the fans and stuff.

I've been drying a crop over the last 7/10 days in 19/20c 68/73% with constant airflow passing through it's drying just fine, I would have trouble sleeping without air flow.
