a dehumidifier would be a good idea. The less moisture the better, as the plant will force itself to produce larger amounts of resin to keep the leaves from drying out. You will also notice that the leaves become skinny& long instead of very fat and short.

oh and yes they can handle quite a bit of a temperature drop, just as long as they have been eased into it. if they are already used to a 20 degree drop in dark hours they will be fine. I live in canada and mine were used to a 15 drop when they were only a foot tall inside. I put them outside im mid-may which is considered too early around here as we sometimes get frost in may. However they seemed to love it out there. i think im probly just lucky it was a warm spring for the most part. check out pics of one of mine in the Basic Growing forums.
