pe mono RH is low

Tub was 100% colonized, put it into fruiting two days ago. Temp inside is 75 and rh is 45-55%. Sub is moist nice little spots of water, no signs of drying out.no condensation on walls of tub. I've adjusted the poly fill a little bit with minimal change in Rh. Any suggestion as to why its so low in the tub. Its cold winter months where I'm at. Maybe I should try my humidifier for a few hours? Cover a few of the holes? (Tub is the normal 6 holes) any ideas would be great.thanks

run the humidifier in your room, if theres moisture on the surface thats the humidity that matters, it gives your subs surface 100% humidity as it evaporates, get rid of the made in china hygrometer if thats what your measuring with

just make sure you have nice beads of moisture across the surface,lots of condensation and a little dry ring about an inch around your polly where the air is being pushed out

Got it going now. There is zero condensation as we speak but I'll give it a few hours.

 keep us posted, you should see some moisture running down the walls from your top holes once you get some good condensation build up

IMO hydrometers aren't needed and most are useless. If the walls of the tub have condensation then you are good; if not then mist them.
