Try it. If the RH don't get up to 95%+ in 6 hours tape some of the holes up, add more perlite or a combination of both.

Hygrometers are fairly cheap and pretty much a must :smile:

If you do get a hygrometer get a hair hygrometer or a psychometer...cigar store mechanical ones work fine....i'd just get another tub for cheap....drill abunch of holes 1/8th of an inch thick....4-5 inch layer of perlite..dunk and roll and you know the rest

As long as Rh is around 95%, you are fine, does not matter how many holes, in fact the more the better for fresh air as long as the Rh is around 95%.

If 5 inches damp, well drained perlite doesn't get you to 95%, consider augmenting with an ultra on a timer, maybe 1 minute on every 20 minutes.

More holes = more fresh air exchange = more pins.

Provided Rh stays around 95%.

The other members are correct in advising you to tape up extra holes, but don't tape so many as to limit FAE.

100-200...depending on how big your terrarium is...More Fae...More Pinning Surface...More Pinning Surface More YIELDS...you want to have 100% rH though so a timer and an ultrasonic would be great

i was told that 100%RH is not good for the mycelium but anything from 85% - 99% is better so as not to hurt the mycelium

Yup, the more the merrier, as long as Rh is at least 95%.
