Looks dry to me. Consider bottom watering. You can type those two words in search and figure out what it is ez.
-------------------- If you've never grown mushrooms before, here's how you start. First, follow the Updated PF Tek, put 4 holes in jar lids not 1, and use a water tub!
The next move is Shoebox Tek. After that you move onto grains, agar, monotubs. Agar is easy, just do it.

idk if it's just for me but the pics are also a little bit blurry. Keep some updates coming, think the dry part is accurate tho.

So They sit in at about 75 to 78 dagrees with 80 to 99゚ humidity I dampened the pearl light through a pillow case rang it out till it barely dripped. The spore vendor I went to I inclinated like 18 jars those 4 were the only that turned out I think they took extra long might not have fully colonized. I spray the walls 4,5 times A-day I did add a cup of water with hydrogen peroxide to the perlite light a week later. I inclinated the jarsearch with my oven Alcohol is sprayed everywhere I started off slow probably should have got the still airbox or made one. I have read a lot on this site and there are other Pieces of equipment that I will be getting like a better thermostat Humidifying I have the little cheap one which I'm sure does not work properly Here's some more pictures from today https://files.shroomery.org/files/23-006/621022306-20230212_075543.jpg.

dont pay attention to humidity meters, look at the surfaces. the perlite should be shiny, the verm should be damp. if you are misting every day there is too much fresh air. your grow should be mostly autonomous

I have a bunch of jars waiting to colonize So those will be my 2nd round and by the 3rd round I am going to invest in a pressure cooker And hydrate and sterilize my own jars That way I know they're ready that 24 hours after they're done And they're not sitting on a shell for in a Box somewhere waiting to be delivered. I haven't had the greatest success rate in inclination. So still airbox will be my next buy

It all looks really dry to me. Did you initially dunk the cakes?

I put them in a ziploc baggy with purified water for 23 hours I bought 18 half pint jars and those 4 were the only 2 colonized I think the batch of jars I got we're old I ordered them from Midwest organics along with the setup

I also missed them frequently but I'm going to lay off that I've added a couple cups of water to the perlite With a little hydrogen peroxide My humidity Is hard to keep at 80 to 95 It hits 99 alot so I try to fan them A few times A-day Just to drop the humidity but it goes right backup And I believe 99% humidity is OK you're supposed to be G t's I see everybody's elses and then I see videos and everything looks like it does a lot better than mine mine seems to be going slow My temperature is always at 75 to 77゚

I don't miss the cakes I missed the sides of the tub Or if I want water to drop onto my cakes I missed above the tub so it gently sprinkles the cakes Only done that twice
