which if any tek did you follow, or did you just go and do it on your own?

forgot to ask- what ratio of peat to vermiculite did you use?

i know this may seem like a stupid question to most of you
but,what is the purpose to having both the vicks and the fogger?

the reason i'm asking is i'm trying a much smaller shelf-style grow and i'm having some trouble with the humidity

A CoolMist provides fresh air exchange & fairly high rh. A fogger provides very high rh. You want to watch out using foggers, as overuse can over saturate a cased substrate with moisture. The best use of a fogger is as a suppliment, to the coolmist.

I read many many teks then put them all together to what suit me best. There is a nice one by agar and a nice one by road kill listed in the FAQ's

50/50 would do well peat/verm.

I have a 4x5 closet i want to use. My question is, I want to reroute my homes AC system into the closet. It really should be pretty easy. I have been in the attic and there is a vent right there above the closet. I am wondering what I can use for hepa filtration in the AC duct? We keep our AC running at optimum temp for fruiting but the closet stays a little warmer than I would like. Any suggestions?

You would want to make a new post, rather than dragging up some two-three year old thread. Upsets the dogs...

You should be fine, I'm assuming you aren't talking high 80's, 90's, are you? High seventies are workable, maybe even low 80's, but that may inhibit growth a bit and be more kind to contamination.

Why are you going to re-route the AC? That seems like a lot of work for ventilation unless you are doing a large setup. If you are just doing a couple tubs you could just fan out the closet, by swinging the door in and out a few times, right before fanning the actual fruiting chamber. That should provide enough air exchange unless you have really stagnant air in that part of the place.
