Pins drying up?

I am thinking this is lack of moisture but not sure. I have a coolmist running every hour for 15min and according to my meter it keeps me at 99% Humidity consistently. I had a great flush from this tray already and now they start out with great color and then slowly progress to blue and then just runt up and stop.

Cluster on the left looked like the middle one with nice red tops only 2 days before this.The middle one is currently turning the same dark color and following the same death it seems.

Are you fruiting that tub in a greenhouse setup?
Mist until the surface is glistening with tiny water droplets. With cased tubs, it's hard to tell, and it's very easy to overdo it, so just a quick spritz or two will be fine.

Those look like they're getting dry bubble/dry rot. Aka verticillium. Dry pins tend to get all cracked, but ime still grow just fine.

Cool, never tried a greenhouse before, only done mono's so far. I would think opening up the tent once or twice a day will displace that pent up co2 laden air and get some more FAE in to support healthy pin formations.

Was planning on throwing the impeller style humidifier in the bottom to get more air moving. Right now I open the front and fan it out twice a day. Has slits in the sides as well to try and get FAE

I dunno if I trust your meter. If things are drying out then humidity is a problem! I would mist manually until you can get it dialed in proper. You want a nice layer of little water droplets on the surface of your sub
Fanning wont provide any FAE so don't rely on that either. FAE needs to be happening all the time. Otherwise its not frequent air exhange

With nice looking sub and no visual contams would you say as well seems to be a humidity issue or lack of water? I was really guessing on that with the research I have done.

Didn't feel it warranted another thread; here are 2 trays I started after this last one. Started getting gnats nesting in it, dumped it and started these 2 from same jars. Little overlay? Very new to this so I could be way off. Curious more exp opinion anything jumps out.
Martha style, ultrasonic 15 min every 2 hrs; with a coolmist in the bottom.
