Usually I see people wanting a negative air I don't think posative air will kill them but negative air pressure is usually the goal I believe. Or it has been for my grows. Do a search on here and I am sure you will find he answers you are looking for

Positive pressure causes bloating of the tent. Smells will find pin hole exits, zippers etc If you don't run a filter it doesn't matter. Since you do, you NEED Negative pressure.
Also, I personally recommend exhaust through the top , intake on the bottom. For reasons that just seem correct to me. Not gonna explain cuz I've already typed too much.

I aim for slightly negative, that way I know the air is all being removed which will draw new air in "I use passive intake"

Ok thank you
I have the opposite problem. I live in an area that is pretty much always humid. I keep the CFMs high and the tent sucks in from all sides. I vent the filtered air out of the top of the tent and I added an extra vent hose at the bottom to help air flow. I keep a dehumidifier going in the room where the tent is located. Of course dehumidifiers put off heat and sometimes that is an issue. But determination always finds a way.
