It's been very hot and humid the past few weeks and I'm about 4 weeks into flower. The buds on my girls have been giving off a strange musky/wet smell. I haven't seen any signs of mold or root rot so I'm not sure what it could be. I've thought about buying a dehumidifier but they're very expensive and I've heard they put off a decent amount of heat. My temps have been around 81-85 and humidity has been between 65-70. I feel that both these numbers are too high for flowering and I'd like to find a way to lower them(especially the humidity) for the final few weeks. Also, they seem to be "sweating" constantly and the PH has been dropping constantly the past few weeks. It's usually between 3.5-4.5 and I have been using ph up to get them into the 5.0-6.0 range. I'm running a dwc setup with a 600w cooltube and a passive intake using a 340cfm inline fan with a carbon filter. All in a GL120(4'x4'x6'7") I can use a portable air conditioner if I have no other option but I'd rather not due to electricity costs and having to exhaust it. Any suggestions are welcome. I've also been foliar feeding snow storm ultra(just 3 times so far) but stopped since the smell started. I have 2 small fans and one large oscillating fan in the room as well. I originally posted this in the general forum but didn't get many responses so I'm hoping to get more here. Thanks for any input
