As long as it doesn't go higher, I'd leave it sit to go down on its own. When it starts doing that, though, it's best to keep an eye on it, as it's dissipating to the point where it may keep going lower than you want.

It did exactly that overnight

Woke up and humidity was at 15%. Its on the rise now, but not having it rise too rapidly. Will the overnight fiasco harm anything?

The reviews I read didn't mention humidity fluctuations... Ugh.

It's okay, as you caught it. As long as it's not that for like a day, a few hours won't hurt. You'll get to know about what times it needs water added and how much.

Day 4. Quitter or not fertile? Or should I leave it in longer? The other day 4 looks like it is developing.

Questionable day 4-

Good looking day 4-
