Donating Noob MONO’s need help dialing Patsy’s FAE in

Hello,
I am a donating Noob that is a Veteran and just needs some guidance from someone who has experience in the hobby and how they noq
Pics below...,
(IDK why but the tek’s came easy to me but my issue is finding the signs that say they need more or less air and humidity. One in the same right? More air, less humidity , no? But if I was told “when there are droplets on the lid you are over humidity or if the condensation covers the whole side of the tub that means the RH is just right as long as the condensation isn’t running down the wall. Anything like that but I cannot find that anywhere? Thx)
So 56qt Mono 6 hole,2-1/4” holes. Real quick, I grew 2 times that gave fruit up, 1 was BRF cake and 2nd was a 100% mycelium kit, only doing this 3 months, bought flow hood and a ton of $ worth of junk like humidifiers that don’t work, am super clean. Spawned bags before the hood with contamination throwing out 6 bags to date until my laminar hood and have 2,(1-32qt & 1-56qt mono’s with PE that from my information should be pinning any day? If you could look at my post with pictures and let me know your opinion I would greatly appreciate it! The post has a similar title with pictures from Tues-Thursday of last week. The 56qt has what looks like volcanic verticals growth happening and in places that volcano looking growth is about as big around as a dime or nickel with droplets, big droplets on the top of all the growth that looks like heavy snow. That tub had 5lb of WBS mixed right in with 5lb of north spores Boomr bag. So 1:1. The 32qt is 2, 1lb monster mushroom 2 part rye bags to a 5lb monster mushroom sub bag and sub in both are equine dung based or at least dung based for sure! The 32qt has the same type of vertical volcanic growth started but has not covered the dark black almost Sub with the thick blanket is in the 56?? Any thoughts why? It was put to Sub the same day and I mixed not layered both making sure it was homogeneous as I could get it. I believe the ratio of 2:5 is the issue since I still have it in my dark, stays 72-73 spot with all but the two top holes closed and the top with micropore on them. The 56 showed 100% fast and after 48hrs to be sure I pulled it and took the packing tape off the bottom holes allowing there to be a 2 layer fabric micropore tape filter on all 4 lower holes. It started to condense so bad that I had pools start. I checked FEild Capacity and was good. I took a sterile out of the pack 10ml syringe and sucked up all the water pools and droplets that were forming pools up as best I could. That left 3 spots that I now know were just a waste or motabolite the myc discharged or even WBS stain but I was so concerned that it would ruin this beautiful solid brick that I cut the 3 spots out and you can see in my post. It has been 18 days since I put the tubs together now. I won’t open the 56 Becca the condensation on the lid I really don’t want dropping again. But there is an updated pic of my 32qt and please everyone let me know if that is what you would think is ready to fruit? OR DO I JUST WAIT TILL I SEE PINS IN THE COLONIZING STAGE AND NOT EVEN START FRUITING TILL THEN EVEN IF ITS 30+ DAYS FROM SPAWN TO SUB? If so I am an idiot 😝🤦♂️
All that said here are the pics for those of you not interested in going to find the post.
Here are the Mexicana I harvested from my kit.


Here is the B+ I got out of a BRF

Here is the 32QT last week;

Then just yesterday, (you can see tight spots of Myc and if you get down and look across the surface there is a web of Hyphal growth all over every inch.

56 As soon as it hit 100%.
 This was the 56qt about a week + ago and you see my cuts. (Sorry, I know it’s painful! Yes, flame sterilized and all.

CLEANLINESS IS NEXT TO GOOD MUSHROOMNESS! For anyone interested in a cheap hood that does the job well if you look up VD-650 or VD-850 if you have $$ and you will find a plethora of prices. We were able to get the 650 for $450 delivered! Then the corners having dents and them sending a 220 unit I had to rewrite I got $225 back so you could be in a hood doing much cleaner work I have seen with my own eyes going from 50%+ contam to 0 so far. It is not for a serious business or a hobbiest that will be using it everyday or every other day for long periods of time as I have not seen a way to change the filter yet?? For what I am doing or if you only do this 1-3 times a month where you would need to spend some real time in the hood it is perfect and for even more use it is good but won’t last as long unless I find the way to change the filter I think is caulked in place??? Lol Just a note.
This is the cheaply built Laminar Flow Hood next to a pretty decent contrast scope. An AmScope 40X-4000X and has a camera mount on the trino turret.
.
These bitches have kept me busy too!



 
So that has been the happenings as of recent. I really am concerned that all the work I did could be for not if I am not paying attention or miss where I should open up for more FAE or less FAE and how much to adjust? Other than condensation being all over or there being none at all what are signs or things looked for to say,”okay that’s the right dialed amount of FAE”?
Any and all help / comments are welcome as long as they are somewhat constructive... lol

Humidity and air are different. If the new air coming in is humid it won’t change the moisture. The trick is to figure out how much air exchange your area will allow without drying things up.
That side yard weed is gorgeous.

My only criticism is the first part needs to be split into paragraphs.
Is this an ad for a flowhood?
