Humidity Question

I'm in the "try'n to get pins stage" of my first grow and for the past day i can't get the humidity over 90% I've reads pins need 95%-100% rh..i have plenty of condensation and calibrated the hydrometer ...I am using perlite that was soaked in a strainer.
is it a major issue to get that 5-10% more or will i be ok with the 90?

These mushrooms grew up in a PmP that had only 90% humidity the whole time. -actually more shrooms popped up than this, just no pics. The walls also had condensation and even though it had a bubbler underneath the hydroton, the walls were still misted every day.
So yea, it should start pinning. Give it a week to two weeks. You'll se something.
Good Luck bro

I've got the same cheap ass thermogrometer as yourself, and according to it's cheap ass humidity gauge the RH will not go past 80. I have assumed it inaccurate due to it's price.

There is no way it's just 90% with the meter sitting right on top of the perlite like that. The reason it says 90 is the meter is junk.
But to answer the question if the vern on the cake stays moist it will fruit at 90%. (your over that though)
