Humidity problem start of flowering

I’ve flipped my plants just over 2 weeks ago to 12/12 and the humidity has went pretty high in the 70s-80s, I have a small dehumidifier but it’s not really helping much any other tips to what I can do, do you think I need a better carbon filter set up??

Exhaust the humid air...constantly.

they look great- is the light on full power? is your extraction running all the time? because it should be.. what size tent/diameter exhaust?

Get a humidity controller on your exhaust fan, set it to 35-40. Your filter has nothing to do with it.

Those Inkbirds are awesome. I have 2 sets of the temp and humidity meters. Love them and very easy to use.

They are great...The only thing I don't like is the LED display is red...a green display would be nice so not to effect plants during lights off.

I didn't think about that. Hopefully it is a minimal effect if at all.

If you're exhausting into the same room that your intake pulls from, that's not going to help, just an fyi. Like say, if you have a tent in a room and you are both pulling air from, and exhausting to the same room. In that case you need a bigger dehumidifier, a 30-50 pint model will work for most small home grows. Those small dehumidifiers don't usually have compressors, so they hardly remove any moisture.

Inkbird is my go to. I’ve used them for years. I have a temp controller that’s five years old with the probe in a fish tank, the alarm saved my daughter’s water puppy more than once. Well worth the price, but make sure you get the dual stage model that will control both humidification and dehumidification.

I keep mine outside the tent for that reason.
