Humidity Problem

So I bought a heater to get my temps up, but now, with my extraction and oscillating fans on, I'm finding it hard to get humidity up above 45%in my tent. I have wet towels, pans of water and am using a water spray. Can't turn my extraction fan down, Rhino 4", as it has no speed settings. Plants are 10 days old. Any recommendations?
Cheers
I have two Variac controllers and like them a lot....

I've grown in low humidity for a very long time with little problem.

My humidifier just went out but your low humidity isn't a huge problem so long as you stay in top of watering. If you let it dry out too much then salts can build if your in hydronics but even still drought causes stress. Ideally you want a nice, moist 60-75rh but you can make it to harvest with good watering habits.

If you're truly concerned you could but a humidifier but what if your extraction fan still pulls too much humidity? Good watering habits will offset the low humidity, you'll use more water but the humidifier won't be needed.

I'm sitting at 35-42 rh for about a week now. Plants are fine.
How much watering is about right? My soil is moist 2 days after their first significant watering, but I am using 12 litre airpots so imagine I may need to water more over the long run.

I'm a hydro grower but I also hate watering lol. I can suggest blumat drippers. Gravity fed watering system that only waters when the moisture content gets low otherwise a moisture sensor or lifting the pot and checking it's weight

Yes, I always forget about the basic lifting technique. I'll have to start lifting.
