Ok so I bought a hygrometer today and it says my humidity is at 100 how can I lower this? I cracked the top in hopes of lowering it to 90..
Also have white fuzz growing on my cakes which i hear is normal, but I figured I might as well make sure since im posting the above.. Thanks

Your high humidity is fine. Mine is usually around 99%.
White fuzz is also fine.

Personally I'd leave the humidity alone and suspect the hygrometer besides cakes love the high RH! But remember they also love FAE's.

Cakes really love as high humidity as you can get, as long as you provide plenty of FAE they do very well.

This is 1 of my favourite cake grow logs by baker, fruited in 95-98% rh (measured using a nice analogue gauge) misted 3-4 times a day and fanned 7-8 times a day with bright fluerescent 6500k lighting in a shotgun terrarium.
His cakes expoded, some even had so many mushrooms you couldnt see the cake.
If you were fruiting cased substrates, you wouldnt need to have your humidity as high. Ive heard some say to even fruit cased trays at 99% and others say lower but idk ive never tried it.
