Should I mist?
    #26388419 - 12/18/19 09:47 AM (4 years, 1 month ago)

I have 2 of these tubs going and the corners keep drying out even with the lids on.  Incredibly dry in my place right now.  Should I keep misting to maintain beads of moisture on the surface?  They seem to dry out in 4-5 hours.  Second picture shows one of the  dry corners.

They look great, nothing to worry about.

There will be enough moisture in your substrate, but if it is drying out that fast then yeah I'd keep it lightly misted.

Maybe you have too much FAE, cubes do like a lot of it but too much will just dry it out like what's happening here.

I generally maintain beads on the surface.  As long as you understand what "beads" are versus soaking it.  Soaking it constantly will lead to problems.

They're definitely not too dry yet, so you're doing something right.

If you're really worried, mist a bit to get those beads. Or buy a cheap hygrometer and run a humidifier in your grow room, that'll cure your humidity anxiety right up lmao.
