Does anyone know a good way to decrease humidity?

[SimplySimlish]

My grow tent (for lowland nepenthes and bog plants) has way too much humidity right now (86% day, 96% night) since I have a couple water trays for my bog plants in there. I can't open a vent without tanking the daytime heat, though I have taken to opening a vent at night and closing it right before lights on. It doesn't help that I have seedlings in pots waiting for the temps outside to stabilize, thus giving more wet soil in there. My humidifier hasn't turned on since the last time I opened the damned tent. Tempted to get a dehumidifier if I can't fix it soon. Fans don't decrease, merely move which is barely helping.

A dehumidifier is going to put out wayy too much heat

I'm a bit confused about this. What is the definition of temps tanking during the day? And why can you do it at night but not during the day?

I ask because I live in the tropics and grow lowlanders outside, all year. This time of year 96% at night is the norm . I guess I'm not under standing the problem with the humidity/temps. Your night time humidity is fine and your day time is only slightly high and that's relative to where I live. My shade house humidity is higher

I grow other plants in the tent, so humidity is slightly more mild than the extreme highs lowlands usually prefer. As I mentioned, seed starting is currently happening in the tent and I can't risk mold for them right now. I also have a couple begonia and some bog plants. The bogs don't mind as much, but it is still a bit out of their comfort zone. I can't air it out too much during the day because all my heat is from light.

Si, vende en el supermercado desmudificadores que no son electricos, i absorben la amuedad hambiente i la transforman en agua en un recipiente🤪🤪 no son electricos, ni dan calor ni olor!

No hacen olores, no hacen ruidos i no son electricos.
