What is providing the FAE in this greenhouse?

This is a great writeup, but I'm not exactly sure what is providing the FAE. I think that it has to do something with the wicking humidifier on the bottom self, but I'm not entirely sure. Otherwise, it looks like a great setup.

Okay, so the humidifier at the bottom corner is drawing fresh air in from the outside and pumping it into the greenhouse? If so, that makes sense. Does this mini GH need any fanning, or is it effectively completely automated? It just seems like a really simple, easy design for something that is set and forget.

I have my GH with my humidifier running on the inside, and a whole cut and filled by a furnace filter to keep bugs out, and allow fresh air in, with a small fan running on the inside to circulate air. If you need any other help just drop me a pm -kushroom

Pulled right from the link you sent

FrankHorrigan said: FAE: As much as possible. I run my evaporative humidifer 24/7 for my edibles that don't mind a bit lower RH in the chamber. For cubes I have been finding my casing layers dry up too quickly. To compensate, the cool mist is on 30 min then off for 30. The ultrasonic runs 15 min on every hour, right after the cool mist shuts off You can adjust the amount of FAE by how zipped/unzipped the curtain is on the sides.
Here's how it is set up, it's very simple:
Two 4-tier wire shelves back to back. Ultrasonic on the top, evaporative humidifier on the bottom corner. Curtains unzipped 1/4 of the way on both sides.
Curtains pulled back by the evaporative humidifer for good FAE.

He even says he tried fans and bs and says this is the best way to do it.

Add a small fan if FAE is still not good enough.

Well definitely having the humidifier outside the GH will create a surplus of FAE but both ways work, just if you have the time itd make it alot easier for refilling and fae so its beneficial but not required, sorry if this post was scattered im at work nd forgot to finish it last time so im getting high trying to finish it up here before i get off my break lol -kushroom
