Not dumb! Your learning.
Lights tend to suck humidity out of the air. Try and use only a UTH with a dimmer or preferably a thermostat of some kind. You'll see the humidity get stable and be loads easier to maintain and keeping the humidity up during sheds will be a misting every two to three days thing.
