Cooling a dry tent

[Oldfartnoclue58]

Hi all,
I'm setting up my 3x3 to convert to a dry tent and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for getting the heat down without having to buy an A/C unit. Open to all ideas and suggestions. Have a 4" inline fan on the outside, ducted to the top to pull hot air out and that helps for about 3-5 degrees but pulls my humidity down, I also have a small 4" fan at the bottom and a 6" oscillating fan. My problem is I can't get below 72-73 degrees. Any help, comments or helpful criticism is appreciated.
Oh, this is also my 1st grow, lol

72-3 is perfectly fine…. My cannatrol is only a few degrees cooler (68)….

Thanks Frank. I should have been a little more accurate. I can't normally maintain that temp, 74-76, is more of a constant temp range. I can get to the 72-73 range for maybe 2-4 hours per day. I'm trying to make the best of a bad situation. This plant is past due being harvested and trichomes are getting brown.
Thanks as always.

It’s not a bad situation….it’s less than ideal, but most of us have dried in warmer than ideal temperatures, and the buds turned out fine. Just do the best you can…everything will be fine….as long as you’re getting the moisture out, then nothing to worry about. Home growing is about growing in the environment available to you….. nothing to stress about

Do you agree that humidity should be around 55%-60% or is anywhere in the 50%-60% range ok ? The reason I'm doing this on open rather than directly/ private to you is I want this public for any other poor clueless sap like me to help them out.
Thanks.
On the same note. Keep as cool as possible and keep it in the range of humidity to avoid mold/ rot. The humidity range is all I need to hang her up then, Sweet

50-60 is fine, as long as you don’t over dry. I’ve dried in rh as low as the twenties…as long as you don’t let them go too far, then it will work out. Honestly, the difference of 5% is rather negligible…
