i just put my cake in its poormans fruiting chamber, im not sure what to do except as to mist it 30 minutes after you set it in the fc so the verm stays on the cake.
Then mist when its not glistening, aswell as fan.
anythign else im missing?
this is my fc, is there anything you would add?
 the humidity reads at 42 right now...but i think it will change once i mist in 30 minutes

Do you have means to get a very small plastic bin from walmart? I got mine for 4$ that is big enough for 7. I see you only have one, however in my opinion getting you a small tub, with the sgfc holes on each side, would generate much better humidity for you... is that tape btw?
My thoughts
How are you misting, and fanning?
Keep cakes higher from the ground.

I absolutely LOVE it! I needed that! But seriously though, why did you only do one cake. Are you fucking with us? I'm here to help you mate but I've never done a poor mans fc, I guess it will work. Humidity isn't near as important as FAE, fresh air exchange. Your fresh air exchange will start the evaporation process and trigger pinning.

Stick around buddy so we can all laugh about this when you are doing super grows. Build a SGFC, get a 6500k light and watch and read all the stuff in my signature link.
Good luck

I do stealth closet grows (I've got little ones), and get plenty of FAE but I use SGFC's and mono's, but it's a nice size closet. I think with a poormans fc you will need to air it out like every 6-8 hours which is going to be a PITA. Especially for one cake, but I digress. Let's just get you through your first grow. Mainly focus on FAE, not humidity, and keeping your cakes from drying out too much at one time. Has the cake had a week to consolidate, has it knotted yet? And it's going to need several hours of light each day, for best results. You're not going to get natural FAE in that type of fruiting chamber, it's all in your hands.

That's odd that you would get gnats so quickly on your grow ...
Mist till they glisten ... fan ... mist when they get dry and keep doing that.
Maybe pick up one of the those automated self aiming small laser gnat destroyers at Radio Shack ...

yes it consolidated for a week,no i just put them into the fc about an hour ago, and for light would opening the closet door and exposing it to ambien light be sufficient?

For best results it needs some full light for several hours. You can pull it off using just a bit of light but my thing is, you only have one cake and we want you to get as many fruits as possible. If it's just not doable, then yes crack the door by all means.
