alternative humidification to perlite

i have no perlite and no ride to get it, so just imagine perlite doesn't exist. i tried connecting a humidifier to the FC with a plastic bag, but it made to much humidity and heat. So this is my other idea.. take a couple terracotta pots and break into little pieces. thats about it besides add water.. will this work? anyone have a better idea?

a couple of air pumps in jars of water might help?

Hourly misting if you're unemployed and don't mind babysitting your terrarium 24/7. RR

Fold a damp bathtowel in the bottom of the FC to provide humidity. Just remove it every few days and wash, to make sure it doesn't get moldy. RR
