Been fruiting a few small round tupperware tubs and one larger shoebox size tub of poo in a big Rubbermaid tube type of terarrium.
There hasn't been any distinct flushes in the shoebox tray, it will just pop out a few mushrooms from different parts of i7 The other two little tupperwares in the same chamber started pinning and then stalled because I'm having problem keeping humidity up, the environment just sucks humidity right out of my FC and I'm lucky to be keeping it at 70s or 80s RH.
Again these are hpoo cased with 50/50 fruited when mycelium was first noticeable through casing layer. Is this a result of humidity issues or just a badly done job of initiating pinning?

You'll never get a good pinset at humidty below 90%. 95% and above is recommended, even with a casing layer. It's easy to get 99% humidity with perlite in a terrarium. RR

I've tried everything to keep the RH that high. I'm digging out the old 80's style humidifier to keep in the same room as my FC because the perlite just absolutely won't keep my RH high enough.
I think it's because it's just so dry where I live, I don't know 
I've tried so many methods to get the perlite to provide more humidity, lifting the trays directly off the perlite like you suggested in another post, ect.

I actually did that the other day. Duct taped over every other hole I drilled in hopes that might help. No dice but I have a cool misting humidifier now that I'm about go to buy the tubing to pipe right into the FC.
What's a good on/off schedule do you guys think? I was thinking 15 minutes every hour?
