My first greenhouse in Seattle was a total humidity disaster

I built a small greenhouse in my backyard about 5 years ago, thinking I had it all figured out. One morning in July, I walked in and all my tomato seedlings were covered in gray mold because the air was way too wet. I panicked and bought a $80 fan from the garden center that same day to get the air moving. It saved most of the plants, but I lost a whole tray of heirlooms. Anyone have a good trick for keeping humidity in check without breaking the bank?

Oh man, that's the worst feeling. I've totally been there with mold wiping out a whole batch of seedlings.

Learned to crack the door open a bit at night for free air flow.
