I added a bit of water about a week after my first 2 clutches were down. They were still over 80% humidity at that time too. Now they are back up over 90%.

That stuff is more expensive but it seems a little more worry free. Especially if you have less than 10 clutches a year.
I thought substrateless is water and an area to place the eggs? How is using hatchrite considered substrateless?
