No it's a little older fridge. It's at 64 with just the temp/humidity reader in it
Try outside the crisper, bet its not as High RH
is the fridge empty? or is it full of stuffs?

There's a couple things in but no cans
Fill up some water bottles, Tupperware, anythings, full and sealed
It needs volume to work properly. add a bunch of Pop , anything to add volume, it will then make the RH and temp balance out

Welcome KnottyDread.
You'll be so glad you tried this. It takes time and dedication, but the end result is well worth it. 
Take heed of the advice to fill the fridge with volume.

Try a bowl of rice. You got this.
Duh, I think uncooked rice? Dory is swimming in circles today!
What is hempy growing? Dory has short term memory problems... for real! I can't find where you answered this for me before...sorry to bother you again. Will write it down in my "jog memory book" this time ! ��
Dory's adventure begins ...

Why thank you very much. I chopped her and plan on putting her in paper bags because from what I've read everyone seems to like that method. Made a rookie mistake and forgot to weight her wet but I'll weigh her before the cure. To me looks like a couple ounces maybe a little more. They have been drying for about 2 hours so in an another 2 into the fridge she goes.Welcome KnottyDread.

Just did the rice dehumidifier thing last night. Here's the pull-quote instructions from my grow journal:
The basic info is that rice took the RH in the jar from 75% to 50% in about 90 minutes. Yes, 25% moisture reduction in an hour and a half. I had to open the jars to let the buds re-hydrated from the moisture in the air!
Here's what I did:
I poured uncooked (not instant!) white rice in the bottom of a mason jar to fill about 2.25" which was to be divided across three jars of buds. I spread the rice on a cookie sheet and put it in the oven at 200° for about 45 minutes. When it was done, I needed it to cool down, but if you leave it out to cool down it will absorb the moisture from the air and end up at the ambient RH, offering no desiccating properties. So I put it in a ziplock bag, got the air out, sealed it, and put it in the fridge. This kept the rice dry as it cooled.
From there, it went into panty hose balls and into the bottoms of the jars, but you can use it in any enclosed space.
Within approximately an hour and a half the RH in the jar had dropped to 50% and the buds felt crunchy again (like after they had hung in the box), so I took the rice out and left the lids open for about 20 minutes until the RH had risen to 66%. Then I closed them up and put them back in the dark to sit overnight.
45% I'm
Pretty sure it in or around that zone
That being said I know a awesome guy. Named pennywise in here that I believe his average humidity was around 25% it jarred uo around 2 week I believe. ...

Got my babbies in the fridge now temp was 31 before i loaded then went up to the 40s. The 33 temp is the veggie stash place not actual fridge thatd at 44.

If high humidity ad some rice in a bowl it helps even heard newspaper ..
and put some bottles and cans in there..as mentioned above in a few pages ago, it will help regulate and stabilize the temps and rH.

Leave them closed. Get something more than those bags in there and you'll have an easier time keeping the temp and humidity levels stable.
Aren't you excited?
I'm excited for you. I assure you, nothing will go wrong. The process is fairly cut and dried. The biggest challenge is leaving them alone so they can dry.
