Since you've got casings instead of cakes, you'll want to lower your humidity down from 100% to something more along the lines of mid 80s. 100% is much too high for casings.

really? i heard that it was better to have 95-100% RH for primordia formation and then drop it down for fruiting. have i heard wrong?

also be sure to do several airchanges throughout the day (to keep the CO2 level down)

No you havmt read wrong. I read the same thing and it came from the more experienced growers on shroomery.org so i trust the data. 90-95% for pinning and then drop it to 85-90%. That is what I did.

Yeah, I actually wasn't thinking straight, that was my bad. High humidity is necessary during the formation of primordia, followed by the drop to the mid 80s. I feel stupid for giving the false info, but meh, shit happens, my bad.

Actually, this depends on WHERE you are measuring the humidity. Casings evaporate a lot of water. This means that directly above and in the casing substrate, the RH will be higher than in the rest of your fruiting chamber.
It is true that casings do better with a somewhat lower RH than cakes. I like to keep casings around 90% for pinning, but I am having some humidifier problems lately, as evidenced by a long thread a couple pages back.
