Help me

I have these blocks of "plantation soil" "tropical terrarium substrate" u soak it in water and i mixed it 50 50 with 100% natural cypress mulch. Its supposed to help with humidity. My humidity is sitting around 30% which is nowhere near enough. Can i spray some water on the bedding and foil the top screen to help out??? what else can i do. i dont want to soak the bedding i wanna keep it dry. the top of it as dry as possible

soak a towel and wring it out (so that it's damp but not dripping) and just lay it on top of the screen top. It will bump up the humidity well

What kind of hygrometer are you using to measure humidity? That could have a lot to do with why you are getting a low reading. Also, where is it located in the cage?

A picture would actually be very helpful

Ground level in the center of the cage, I would think. I have a Leo tank with 2 Accurites on both sides so I get 2 temp reading and a humidity reading on each side.
