Fruiting stage polyfill need to be adjusted?

I have two Monotubs that are in fruiting stage for the past two, almost 3 days. I do remember that some people said that the bottom holes need to be dry around them with the polyfill stuffed in very tight. They also said condensation needs to be on the walls, which is correct as well. But I do have dry areas around the top holes where the polyfill is stuffed very loosely. Is that a issue or do I need to make them more loose? I do have the fan in my room on low facing away from the mono tubs

Bottoms look good, top could be a little looser

The dry rings around the bottom holes should be a 1/2" to 1" thick. The top holes dry rings need to be at least twice that or more. I agree with ppp, yours are not bad but the tops could be looser.

I took the poly out of the tops to see what it does overnight.

Well I don't think that helped. I looked this morning and most of the condensation from the walls was gone. So I our back in polyfill, but loosened it up a lot more than prior. I also put the fan back where I had it prior as well. Cause I had moved it also. Should I mist anything? Or do y'all want more pics again?

More pics ALWAYS helps
But very light polyfill for fruiting when you feel the day or two your about to harvest is when I pull all my poly out of the top holes but yes mist if there arent beads of moisture across your substrate anymore

I just misted the walls and the substrate a little. One of my substrate is yellow in some spots. Why would that be? This is starting to get frustrating and confusing to get right

A little bacterial but you should still get a good couple flushes

I think I really messed up when I took the polyfill out of the top holes completely. I had it pretty much dialed-in from what it look like other than a tiny bit lack of fae. I took them out and then looked at it the next morning, which was this morning, and a lot of my walls were dried up. Then I put it back in some polyfill and the top holes and it look like it never recovered and was still getting less condensation on the wall still. I just misted the walls a little bit right before I took the pictures and the substrate a little bit also.

Yeah I put it back in first thing this morning. Does the substrate look good as in not too dry or wet? Maybe I am worrying too much, just don't wanna mess up. I have 6 more tubs almost ready for fruiting and wanna make sure I am doing this correctly.
