Removed what from the chambers? Not the cakes? They stay in the sgfc. You should worry about how many times as people give you a number but it completely depends on the environment they are in. You need to look at the cakes if you cant see any moisture then mist fanning is optional as the sgfc is designed to allow air to pass through it can help trigger pinning but after that theres no need

Let the sgfc do the work. It might not have batteries but it's fully automated. Use the search engine and check out "basic principles of a shotgun fruiting chamber", and read it, and then read it again. You don't need anything more than yhat.
Birth/rinse. Dunk overnight. Rinse. Roll in verm. Set on upside down jar lids in sgfc. Wait 48h. Mist it when it looks dry. Fanning basically is like a "scoop" and a little wave after you've misted to get evaporation going. If your cakes look dry then mist. People always overdo it. They only need 3 to 5 times a day.

I removed the humidifiers I had in the chambers lol not the cakes! I don't messk with them. My room is super dry so the big humidifier sits across the room now and is automated to bring the humidity up in the room to 60%! I read somewhere, that the room rh needs to be at least 50%.I also have an oscillating fan on low in the opposite corner of the room. So I have airflow now. So is this good or do I need anything else. If I remove the humidifier than my room rh will drop dramatically

I see no harm in having a humidifier in the same room. Does the room really have no airflow whatsoever? You don't want the fan disturbing the SGFC's passive air flow

Yeah I removed the fan! I put it in my living room in the corner so it will circulate air throughout my small Apartment. Makes more sense! What is the best temperature to keep inside the chamber? Even the room that they are in?

if you put a humidifier in an enclosed area it will make the paint peal off the walls and ceiling. just ask my last apartment.

75F. If you go above or below this temperature your mushrooms will either implode or explode.
But really though anything below 75 they slow down a little and above they're more prone to bacterial issues. I've also heard they get a little thicker at lower temps.
Munch ain't kiddin'. If you don't have ventilation in the room you're using I'd ditch the humidifier.

The door is always open it is not that moist in there lol! It is not on all the time either just blowing into the air. It is set up so again so that the humidity in the room stays at 60%

75 would be really hard to maintain it would be smoldering in my crib! I have one wall furnace in the living room and it blows like mad shit and is super hot when it goes so I have to monitor the Temps in the grow room Constantly

Hey if you can't that's totally fine. The room I fruit in stays between 70 and 73. I'd start worrying in the 50s

I think I will be alright! I am not going to mist again until tomorrow some time. Giving the water on and in the cakes some time to evaporate a little to trigger pinning. After examination of chamber 1 which I placed the cakes in yesterday morning I found that quite a few looked like this? Is this normal Mycellium reestablishing itself?

Kinda. A little early to tell. They'll look like this when they go bacterial.

They kind of blob and ooze out and the myc gets puffy or oozey or spikey. It turns into a battle royale between the mycelium and the infection. It's the only time I recommend redunking/rerolling.
I would put those cakes on upside down jar lids, with the edge of the cake as close to the perlite as possible without touching. That way you're making use of every square centimeter. The evaporative properties you're applying to your roll (the cake's casing layer), benefit the cake by creating tiny pockets that are one of the biggest pinning triggers next to light. As air and water flow up against the cake (from your perlite and sgfc), the organism now knows it has a perfect environment to reproduce.. aka, make fruits.
I don't think your stuff is infected. Maybe. But nothing to worry about. I've seen mycelium do all kinds of weird shit right after a roll. It's probably enjoying its new environment now that it has air, plenty of water, and suitable fruiting conditions.

Here's some more bacterial infections.


Notice, too, how overly wet they are.

Adden your the bomb! So put them on the lids sideways you say huh? Like end to end? Not touching each other or the perlite? Get rid of the foil in other words. So turn all the cakes on the side or just these ones?

Bacteria takes over pretty fast I would think as well. Guess I will know more tomorrow. I'm not misting them again till Friday morning.

Just do a switcharoo with the foil and a jar lid. They really do truly help. Not only do they eliminate standing water (something that's never good in open air), they nearly remove bottom pinning.
You can just do it Saturday morning when you start misting and fanning again, and after that you shouldn't really touch them. You'll create another microclimate by grouping your cakes together. Just lift the cake and put it on the jar lid white side up, make sure no perlite gets on any of them, and let it ride. Hardest parts are over.
This is round 1 finishing fruiting and round 2 right after a dunk/roll and placement.

Three days into fruiting! Misted about 15 min ago so walls are still wet! It evaporates! Have some fruits but these were the invitro ones! Looks like some hyphal knots occurring? What do you guys think so far? Started misting this morning!

its doesnt matter if your walls are wet. its inconsequential. the walls aren't growing mushrooms, your cakes are. so make sure you are misting the cakes, not the walls.

It's impossible to not get over spray with this many cakes! It evaporates
