Re: need more humidity [Re: SixCee]
    #1817388 -

I'm wondering what the problem is.  I'm just using cakes, no casing (newbie), so I need more than 84% rh.  I've done everything right as far as I can tell.  I added more hydroton (part lava rocks), more water, I sealed the pod to keep in moisture and got the pump that Magash suggested........still 84%.  :nonono: :shake:

see dog's answer up above.

if the walls are misty, it's humid enough.

heres what i do. i get the biggest damn tub i can find from the dollar store clear sides doesn't matter if the tops aren't clear.cut two half inch holes in the top on differnt sides. and get plain jane perlite from lowes or wally world. put it in a strainer soak until water comes out the bottom.dump in the tub and level it out. (i usually use the hole bag of perlite). put cakes in tub makes sure to mist sides regularly and fan 3-4 times daily. but it is not nessecary to fan that much ive left mine for a week before without fanning or misting and it still fruited.(a little over an ounce dried)but you could see mycelium running up the sides of the mushrooms which ive heard is from too much humidity and not enough air. there is three dollar humidity reader at walmart that works great for checking humidity. mine usually runs from 90 to 95%. and i usually just sat in front of window seal for light you might want to get some blinds or something.hope i helped:)
