VIDEO. Is this enough air movement to minimize BUDROT chance? Autoflower, day 60 no dehumidifier, too loud, RH 60-70%)

Hi,guys. I apologize for the unsteady hand. I am a newbie grower, would appreciate your advice
Please ignore the yellow leaves. Had a lockout 3 weeks ago, flushed the plants, stopped the yellowing almost completely. Some of it may be light burn, although DLI hasnt gone above 40

I live in a medium/wet climate. My tent is 3 metres from my bed and I am sensitive to sounds, thus no large dehumidifiers, because they are LOUD. (I have read that the small ones are useless even if you buy several)

My lung room humidity is ~60%
Tent humidity is 60-70%. I know its not ideal, but I have heard air movement is KEY with high humidity.
Tent temps: 24-27 celsium. I use LED lights, higher temperature is encouraged
Lights are on 24/0, since turning them off raises the humidity to 70+

I have AC infinity 6 inline fan and 2 oscillating fans. 1 oscillating if blowing a little upwards from under the canopy, another one is blowing at the upper portion of canopy.
  1. Does the video show enough air movement to minimize botyritis risk? Is the positioning of fans normal? Thy oscillate only left/right, since if I use the whole range it spends too much time blowing directly up or down. Maybe thats more optimal?
  2. The left plant looks like it has at least 3-4 weeks minimum left, does it look too bushy, and I can defoliate some? I did some defoliation 1 week ago. Would have done it earlier, but the lockout was enough stress for her, didnt want to risk it.
Thank you, happy growing.

Your upper & lower canopy is covered so you should have enough airflow especially with the inline fan. There are no pics or videos on your post.

Keep humidity at or below 50% if you want to truly avoid bud rot.

Thanks.

This will be a fun experiment for me - to become a decent grower in high humidity, since my flowering RH will pretty much always be 60-70%

Good luck, if your going above 60% humidity in flower your going to be at high risk of mold all the time. Definitely make sure you keep temps above 70 °F or 21 C.
