What RH is too high to dry trim

I just moved to an area with higher humidity than I am used to and am worried about mold if I choose to dry trim. My RH is between 52-58% and temp will be about 70 degrees during drying.

Will my humidity be ok to not worry about mold providing I have adequate air flow?

What would be the highest humidity before a person would want to wet trim?

Thanks.

Over 70% is impossible
You are in the right vicinity but temps are a little high I prefer the upper 60’s

Trimming has nothing to do with it. Wet trim if you want. Or wait till it’s dry.
shoot for 65f/60rh 10 to fourteen days for perfectly dried weed.

Perfect, thanks! I can get down to maybe 68F since I have 1 girl that is going to take an extra week due to stress so don't want to go much lower than that. That may even bring the humidity down a bit too.

I use gallon jugs of ice in a cardboard box with the whole plant hanging above. Provides a very stable environment of 63-65° and 55% humidity for a minimum 10day dry...you really do not want to rush this stage and hurry it along with higher temps.

The ice idea sounds like it would work perfect in my situation. I have to dry in a closet in my grow room initially since I still have one plant that won't be finished. I will give the ice a shot.

Thank you!
