monotub condensation

My monotub is roughly %80+ colonized and there is alot of water condensation on the lid and little droplets on the substrate. There is no water pooling just little droplets. will this cause trich or contams? should I open it up and dab with a paper towel?

Looks totally normal. & like you have a pseudo-casing layer on there. Ditch it next time. just mix all the grains up really well. put the lid on & done.

I am not and I've never had a contam from the grains being exposed.
Covering the grains is not needed for cubes, OP
