Hey can I put a little water bowl in my shotgun fruiting chamber to maintain high humidity and keep moisture in the air. Thanks

Haha well I'm going out of town for a couple days and am worried about cakes drying out. I was thinking of putting little bowls of water with a teaspoon of white vinegar in them to keep moisture in the air. You say don't do this?

no, the SGFC is what you do for cakes when you're going out of town for a few days.

Just soak em well, make sure the perlite is good and. Moist, and they'll be fine while gone.
You could tape up a few holes, but not sure if that's even needed.

taping holes lowers humidity and makes it less automated I wouldn't tape holes

Werd . I thought taping it up would retain all that inside, but I guess it would Just sit inside the perlite instead. And probably mold
I see now!
And knowing is half the battle.
Gi Joe!
