Shotgun Humidity Drop what to do?

So my cakes have been in the shotgun chamber about 3-4 weeks with recent pinning and fruiting.
While Fanning and Misting I touched the perlite and it seems to be getting dry.
The RH humidity has dropped from 95% to 85%.
Is this cause for concern? Should I take the cakes out and stir in some water maybe with some peroxide?
I dont know any suggestions?

Pull out the cakes, re-hydrate the perlite, and put it back in.

You could use a deeper layer of perlite next time. Perlite should not feel wet anyway. I would just mist around the cakes a little. It would also work better if you had the tub off the ground a little. The Shotgun tek is designed to draw air up through the perlite, bringing moisture with it.

Okay...sounds like a plan. I was just concerned if its was okay to take out the cakes like that...
And the only reason peroxide was on my mind is cause of the moisture thats been in there is a month old...
But no need...Right?
I guess it doesnt help that I dont have holes on the bottom...I didtn want dripping and perlite coming out...
But on the up side the chamber is 2 feet off the ground and in a small room with the cieling fan on high...
