What's wrong with this pin?

Why is the pin cracking open like this? Too dry? I have been misting about 3-5 times a day and fanning 6-8, though I was busy for the holiday yesterday so I only got in one mist and fan in a 24 hour period. My RH stays between 94-99% and I'm on a 12/12 lighting cycle with a 6500k light/ window sunlight. Is he a goner?

It looks dry. I can see blueing on your cake. I'd say mist more. Is your perilite wet?

Are you misting the cakes, or something silly like the walls of the chamber?

I mist about two feet over the sgfc and let it fall down on the cakes. My perlite is 5 inches deep and has only been in the fc for 2.5 weeks so I doubt its drying up, plus it gets moisture when I mist

You should be misting the cakes directly with a fine mist until they glisten, then fan out the chamber.
You should mist the cakes again when the water you previously applied has evaporated.
Do this a minimum of twice a day(depending on your environmental conditions) and you should be fine.

Thanks Hacker. My mister tends to shoot out a solid drop or two with the mist and I felt that those drops were bruising the cakes so I started misting and letting it fall down. Guess I'll just have to spend a dollar on a new one haha
