Sgfc or shoebox for single cake?

That about sums it up. I have 4 jars consolidating for the next 5 or 6 days, one KSSS jar thats still colonizing very slowly and might be stalled, and one PE jar that finished super fast, started pinning, and is now being dunked.
I had a feeling just one cake in my SGFC is not enough to keep moist, and from what i've read recently even 6 might be too few to effectively create a microclimate in my SGFC.
I just found these 2 little 6 quart bins and cleaned them with bleach and peroxide and put a few inches of wet perlite in.
The question is could this be an effective chamber for 1 to 6 cakes if I keep watch over it, use one tub as a lid and just set it slightly off center for gas exchange and mist and fan often?
I know a cube is a cube and they can grow in all kinds of places f you know what you're doing, but is it actually a good idea?
*edit* after checking the similar posts when I was about to submit this one, i see similar questions have been asked but not quite.
I promise I read several before going forward with the post, and would still feel more comfortable getting up to date answers.
I should also note that I don't have any coir or anything to spawn the cakes to bulk, though that's coming in near future grows. So I'm just looking for advice on this type of chamber's efficacy vs SGFC for 1 to 6 whole rolled cakes.

Thanks in advance ✌

No shit? That's a new one for me.
Its funny you say that because i've been looking at Violet's in vitro fruiting teks with zip lock bottle things the past couple days and i've been confused by the results since it goes against what I thought i knew about FAE.
So just put it back in the jar with the lid off and leave it out in the open? What about a layer of verm on top?
Side pins won't be an issue?
Why have a fruiting chamber at all if this is a valid option?

I dont really like to fruit out of the jar because of the side pinning. Its too hard to control in my experience.
A small shoebox or small SGFC works well. U can even use a gallon baggie filled with wet perlite. Ive done that and it works pretty well too.
