You have me very confused.

Do you still need verm for what exactly?

Verm is used in your substrate mixture to make brown rice flour cakes
(A.K.A PF Tek).

Perlite is moistened and then added to your shotgun fruiting chamber
at a depth of at least 4" to provide humidity in your chamber. Also
note it is very important to have your holes drilled on all 6 sides and
have your chamber elevated on jars so air can flow free under the
chamber.

If you are using a SGFC you really do not need a humidifier, the perlite
provides the humidity.

I do not understand what you are trying to ask...you are going to be
using a humidifier and perlite but your worried about over moisturizing
if you add verm to the substrate...... I do not know what you are
talking about lol.
