how exactly do i messaure humidity? i just sort of spray the mulch until it looks damp and if you set the thermometer at 90*F it can go up to 100*F?
The temperature thermostat simply turns on and off the CHE to try and keep temperatures at your desired setting. It does its best. Which is why you need a good temperature gun to check the temperatures in and around the enclosure and adjust the thermostat to reach your desired setup.
They make digital humidity readers. Do not by the cheap ones that look like a dial.
Pet stores sell them, but I grab mine from home improvement stores. Usually used to measure outside humidity, they are water resistant and small. Easy to put inside the enclosure and move around to check humidity in all areas.
