Sorry, gotta disagree with that response. If it's not in a very "climate controlled environment", (like most of my many, many bucket grows) here's the thing...
It's oysters. You've got a lot of space between the substrate level and the top of the bucket where you have the plastic. If it's open air or in a non-climate controlled environment like mentioned, there's gonna be a lot more humidity between the substrate and the plastic on top of the bucket, and THAT'S where they're going to pin. If you want to force them to fruit through the holes, drop a dinner plate on top of that plastic wrap and push it down hard. Remove the tape from the holes right after that. This way, they won't have a place to top-fruit and will HAVE to fruit out the holes in the sides, like you want them to. And oysters will do just that. If you leave it the way you've got it, and your ambient humidity is lower than that in the top of the bucket, they will likely pin on top of the substrate instead of out the holes.
Just a word of advice from someone with experience with bucket fruiting of oysters (and other species). Good luck!

@Forrester, If he put a plant pot dish under the bucket filled with water, would that aid side humidity and growth?

Yo, thanks for this! Great idea, and it makes total sense. I'm a noob to buckets and edibles, so it's a learning experience. I still have lots of myc if this goes downhill. But will do this as soon as I'm home. Thanks!

Sorry if I wasn't clear, but I re-read my post (had to, the only time I get to spend on here is in the midnight hours after work, when I'm drinking, so yeah sometimes I don't make any sense), but I didn't say anything about a plant pot dish UNDER the bucket, filled with water. I said take a plate (like a dinner plate), and shove it right down on TOP of that plastic wrap covering the bucket (pushing the plastic wrap down to substrate level). So that there's no space for the substrate to top-fruit.
With oysters, they will fruit wherever they HAVE to fruit. If they've got a nice space on top, with lots of humidity (which there will be if ya got it covered with glad-wrap), they WILL fruit there, instead of out the holes. You gotta FORCE them to fruit out the holes, making them the ONLY place they CAN fruit out of. Hope that clears things up

Woohooeeeeeey! my drunk ass got it right 
Hopefully in the near future, I will have some grow pics to post here again... I can only hope... That SRA bed I spawned in my chicken run seems to have not taken at all, too dry maybe. I did get 2 SRA mushrooms from a buried block, but that's about the best I've done in the last 2 years lol.

If I do get 'a growin', lion's mane and cordyceps will be the first, to treat my whole family's lyme disease. Ugh, what a nasty creature those Borrelia burgdorferii are!

It is, but we'll kill them little fuckers, all of 'em... 
Poor kid has the relapsing fever type and just had 103f fever for about 12 hours yesterday. 12 hours, then gone, back to her normal self. Fuckin weird ass disease...
On the bright side, my wife just spent an hour the other day digging a tick out of my ASS, that had buried it's body 3/4 of the way into my skin. Tryin' to give me Lyme eh? Too bad bitch! I'm on so many fucking antibiotics the lil piece of shit probably died as soon as he took a sip 
Haha, sorry, back on topic... Here's a nice flush of Lentinus tigrinus I did a long time ago, I'm guessing it was long enough ago that most reading this post haven't seen it! (I'll just live in the past until I can grow again haha!)

My King,Pinks,and Maitake have yet to make a single pin in the past week they have been in the room? The Lionsmane exploded into growth as soon as it went in.

I was actually talking about external humidity, since you mentioned internal vs external. NVM!

Oh, gotcha! I get what you meant now. My answer is... um, I dunno. I don't think it would really help THAT much with ambient external humidity, but it could help a tiny bit I guess? Most of it will blow away in the open air I imagine, unless you put some kinda tent around it, but then you're gonna have airflow issues (leggy fruits, etc.).
I think the best way is to just mist the holes in the sides a lot, and mist the shit out of any pins that come out. Like I said, oysters WILL fruit out of wherever they HAVE to, even if conditions are not entirely to their liking. Just make the holes in the sides of the bucket the only place they can fruit, and you should be fine! However, I AM in a humid area now, not like where I used to live (Colorado), which was dry as fuck and I don't know how they would do in that kind of climate. But here, all I did was put the bucket on the kitchen counter and mist every time I walked by it. Especially when you get pins, fucking drench 'em, it only helps oysters and will never hurt them.
But yeah, if you're in the desert with like no ambient humidity, even oysters might have a bit of trouble... but I've heard of them growing in the wild in colorado, so I doubt a heavily misted bucket will have any problems!

Oh and, I just re-read my post and it sounds like I'm giving you advice on how to grow oysters - I should have stated that most of that post besides the first couple sentences was intended for jkz, I guess that's kinda obvious, but just had to make sure... looks like you already know how to grow some oysters

I am having trouble fruiting in my new grow room . The Lionsmane is doing great. The King, Pink oysters and Maitake arent even showing signs of pinning! My room stays between 60-77F and I run a Hydrofogger minifogger for 2 minutes every 15mins. The maitake is making small patches on top but it doesnt look like aerial mycilium searching for air. its fairly flat and thick. The blocks were incubated for about 3-4 weeks and have been in fruiting conditions for over 10 days now. I want to say I'm impatient but I had better success with my shelf greenhouse with getting pins.
edit: Its probably too cold for pinks but I had them laying around and need some spores. 2 king blocks then maitake:

I'm turning into solarity and producing too many Tarragon oysters! Thanks to a recipe from Gr0wer, Google and research.
Plus a whole bunch of community data, ofc!
