temperature of the room ?
70 but I think I can get it a couple degrees cooler

cooler means more humid
so stay at 70 .. if you increase to 73 rh wil probably drop around 60
honestly 65% rh for drying is not excessive, just keep an eye on the buds if they are very dense
avoid temperatures drop in the room. rh will increase and botrytis love it

Ok I appreciate the response, this puts my mind at ease a bit. I'm sitting at 70degrees 64% right now. I just borrowed another dehumidifier so hopefully I can get down to 55%. The buds are pretty dense on most of the phenos I have so I was pretty worried, I have a lot invested in this harvest.

Cold is relatively higher in figure but has a lower actual moisture content, my drying conditions were 15/16c 62/65% with constant ventilation, the drying is finished in the jar/bucket to around 60% finished product.
Hang a damp tissue in the room and see how it dries, good drying conditions feel quite cold/cool.

raising temp will lower RH .. so no its not a bad idea if it is our only option ..

Whats your science on that?

It's called RH because that stands for relative humidity. The humidity is relative to the temperature. Air can hold more water (humidity) at higher temperatures. As the temperatures drops so does the air's ability to hold water. So your percent humidity will rise as a result of losing the capacity to hold water in the air.

Ok, I understand what youre saying.

How Temperature & Humidity are Related
Temperature and humidity affect the Earth's weather and the health and comfort of its residents. Relative humidity describes the percentage of water vapor in air that changes as air temperature changes. Dew point refers to the temperature at which air reaches saturation by water molecules.

sorry to disappoint you but it is basic growing knowledgeDude. Re read your highschool text books and stop giving out terrible advice that is wrong.How Temperature & Humidity are Related

the subject of the thread is bud rot
i can guarantee that at 20 degree and 80% rh you have all the chances to get botrytis
at 29 degree with the same rh you will never get bud rot, as long your air circulation is fine
"Botrytis is favored by cool temperatures (50° to 60°F) and high relative humidity "
please dont be agressive to prove your point, mostly when you're wrong
