Blue Oysters and Humidity

So im about to start on some blue oysters. I look around at a lot of peoples pictures and i notice that there doesnt seem to be as high of a demand for humidity as cubes, which im most familiar with. I see people using laundry baskets and bags and such, and it seems to work just fine.
Well, i have a 4 tier greenhouse set up in my room. Question is, how concerned do i have to be regarding the humidity?

You are correct, humidity is not as important for oysters as FAE. Mist daily and you'll be fine with whatever humidifier you've got in there. Just get them lots of air.

Poly is good, for oysters a nice even 80Rh would be ideal. Some go even lower than that, down to 70. I personally love oysters! Never have tried lions mane though, at least on a bigger scale.

Yeah, you could do that. Or just leave the front unzipped and put the oysters near the front, either way Just remember to mist the hell out of 'em every day.
Reishi you don't need to worry about FAE - they'll grow antlers if they don't get enough air, which is fine. Give 'em more air and they'll grow conks, also fine. It's all reishi 
Lion's mane needs a fair amount of FAE or you'll get weird stemmy branch formations (like this guy) instead of the nice puffball shape. You don't want that.
