Question for shotgun fruiting chamber

Can i just fill the bottom of the perlite with water? Instead of just spraying to keep the humidity up?

You're supposed to use wet perlite in a SGFC. It's not a substitute for misting, you're supposed to use both.

Yeah the moisture on the perlite will evaporate and increase the humidity in the fruiting chamber. Misting shouldn't be needed(or very little), I like to get humidity to 99%for the pinset to form once there's a pinset ill lower the humidity down to 85-90%. The idea of the perlite in a Sgfc is to provide sufficient moisture/humidity so you have to do as little work as possible.

Im meaning filling the bottom of the tub with like an inch of water and the perlite an inch above the water instead of misting.

You should have holes on the bottom of the sgfc, don't need a pool of water just wet perlite.
