To answer your earlier question, lightly mist your cakes until beads of water appear on the surface.  Then fan it with the lid a bit if you so choose (not required).  I also mist over the perlite a few times and the walls of my chamber lightly.

When the surface of the cake is dry, repeat. 


Also a hygrometer isn't necessary.  It'll just confuse you really.  A proper SGFC will rise and fall in humidity which will aid in the evaporation process, but keep the humidity up enough to thrive.  It's like a nice country road of hills and valleys.

Thank you all for your help. Since I'm working with a small space, I remove my fc and put it on my bathroom counter to mist/fan. I know it's not suggested, but is it truly a necessary precaution? I feel like people are a little too cautious.





Not understanding your last statement.  Why would you mist in the bathroom?

Haha. Sorry. My closet is the linen closet of my bathroom, so the counter is right there. I can't effectively spray my tub without moving it, so do uou think it's fine moving it to the counter multiple times a day. I'm not sure if it is necessary GOT to move the box. Thank you.

Moving it isn't gonna hurt anything.  Just seems kinda cumbersome.  Might be better to just find a spot where you can access it easily and leave it there.

Personally I would not move my tubs that often, I think it stresses the mycelium, leaves bruising and more prone to contaminants. Its better to just plan out in the future and find a good place in your home where parameters are similar to the tropical species needs :shrug:

I transformed my old storage room into a lab and split that lab into two, one side for sterile, the other for growing. That's for the winter and in the summer I spawn to bulk in my sister's old room :lol:

Just leave the door open in that closet and let the SGFC do the rest
