Least amount of cakes I can have in my sgfc?

I couldn't find an answer to this anywhere.
I have a 54 (can't remember if it might be 58, it's somewhere around that) quart sgfc, it's 12 inches tall. 3 of my cakes have been waiting a full week since 100% colonization.
Would I be able to keep my RH up while having only 3 or 4 cakes in the SGFC? There are 9 jars in total. I will be using 5 inches of perlite.
Or should I just be patient and wait until all jars have been colonized for a full week? Thank you.

Personally if its only going to be a week or so I'd wait and let them all consolodate,consolodating the cakes can only be a good thing

yah, I know. I'm growing impatient. Not insanely impatient but a little bit.
Is it possible to keep RH up with only 3 cakes in the fc? That's all I need to know. Thanks.

It will be with a proper SGFC and 4-5 inches of perlite

Yes.
You're going to be misting daily, which replaces lost moisture from the cakes, but also keeps the perlite hydrated, maintaining the correct humidity. RR

I love you guys! I just birthed and dunked 4 of my cakes. Should finally have my first shroomies in about a week or two.
CAN'T WAAAAAIIIIITTT!!!
hey should I grow penis envy or texans next? I heard pe doesn't yield much on cakes (I don't want to do bulk, only pf tek with sgfc) but since they're so thick stemmed it doesn't matter. I've heard that texans are also thick stemmed, grow smaller than PE, but grow a lot more densely, so all in all, pe and texans are the same. Is this right?
