cool , this is exactly what i planned on doing. im gonna put weather stipping on the top so the lid is pretty snug on there then put some filters towards the bottom of the terrarium. because if co2 is heavier then the air then the filters on the bottom will allow the air to froce out the co2

Two things,
1- This is a good post with a good pictorial.
2- He shouldn't have used the name "hydra-pod".
Things were corrected, what else ?
Doesn't matter if it gets you to court or something, it's not ethical. No problem anyway.

its been quite a while since the original post but i'm sure everyone would like to see updates on the fruits if you have pics?
I'm wondering which is better; dunking or letting the clay pebbles wick into the cake?

They are just starting to show. This cake ran in it solo but was on   verm so I don't count it, it was a tester to see if it was a chamber or a cake killer. I hear there is 21 cakes in there now. Some are from another chamber on their seconed flush and some are just birthed.
I'll post pics in the next few days then let the thread die, I'm sure people are board of seeing it now.

As for price, frog got 50 liters for $24.50 US at his local hydra store. Best thing ... will never have to purchase perlite again ... just reuse geolite. After cakes are done, boil geolite in 20/1 water/bleach and clean growing chamber. Frog also has used geolite in his casing chambers with success.

Some of these are on there seconed flush. The ones with the shrooms had their first flush taken 5 days ago then were put into this thing. The cakes that were birthed into it 5 days ago are starting to pin up nicely.
I'll post pics again in another week.
 
A new strain then my usual pics   The strain in these pics is Mikado x BC Kush and is the kind with the strong lemon smell. Sorry the pics suck I get some better ones up soon.

Well my motherboard went down on this piece of shit so I didn't get to post the last flush. This is what my dogs friend has right now in the poor mans pod.
   if you like to take care of you shrooms this thing is gonna boar the hell out of ya. Nothing to do but pick the shrooms and change the water every couple of weeks.

yeah, dont waste your money on a hydrapod, make one of these suckers here, it is the same basic idea of the hydra pod, i dont have expierience with these yet but i beleive them to be quite effective, someday i will have my own version of this setup.

There doesn't seem to be any problem with the tubing. Both kinds will work fine.
