Default How does low humidity affect growth?

I live in Southern California, where we only get a plenty of humidity during the winter, at night, and in the morning. During the later part of the growing season, it can get pretty dry. Does this have negative effects on plant growth and the eventual bunch size? The normal growth rate is supposed to be 1 leaf per week, right? My plants aren't even growing nearly as fast as that. If so, how much does low humidity slow down growth?
