85 is hotter than you want and 60% is the top for humidity. I'd say you need both air conditioning and a dehumidifier. Ideal would be 78 degrees and 50%

Well than maybe you can't afford an indoor grow op right now? I don't know man I'm not trying to be an asshole but you will be wasting a lot of money on your electricity bill just to get some crappy nugs... Your plants will not grow well in those conditions.

80-85% humidity is very bad. lots of other bad things can and will grow with humidity that high. not to mention lots of nasty bugs love that kind of humidity. what kind fo ventilation/ air flow do you have?

keep a fan on them high grade, you and your girls will be fine.
a dehumidifier will jack the heat up and jack your light bill.
i have one for sell.

you just need more air my youth, preferably fresh air, so make sure your getting fresh cool air at lights out, you might need to clean your fan.

If you use an AC, the humidity will go down with it. So go with an AC, and see if that's enough.
