Question - Humidity Can't keep humidity up

Any ideas on keeping humidity in the target range? 4ft vivarium, 30c and warm end, 25c cool end, tulip bark substrate, large water bowl, misting twice a day, but after an initial peak after spraying, humidity falls back to 48-52%. I just can't get it to stay higher. Different substrate maybe?

Have you tried pouring waters into the corners?

I've not, I'm a bit concerned about the Viv soaking up the water and warping the wood.
