Can someone explain to me the difference?

Can someone explain the difference to me of air circulation and air exchange. I have read a lot of stuff and I am now confused. I have a tropic aire reptile humidifier. On the box it says that it does air exchange. From what I gather from reading just having a sealed box with it piped in isn't enough. It sounds like I need vent holes with computer fans (which is unnecessary, but what I would end up doing.) and tyvek.
SO what is the difference between the two? What is necessary? I know that different species have different requirements for "fresh air".

Try reading the IMPORTANT-USEFUL LINKS faq-- it's answered specifically, and obviously, there. You know-- right at the top of this page?
Make an effort, man.

air circulation is the movement of air, recirculation uses the same air. Air exchange is when you replace the "stagnant", CO2 laden, air of your fruiting chamber and replace it with new fresh air. Simple process really, you don't even need a tropicaire, just a good fanning a few times a day.

And I think every human being should be a conscious tool of the universe. . . . -JG i really am glad you came back to us instead of taking the other path. *hug* -A_S (RIP your final words to me will never be forgotten) Don't fuck with the laughing jesus.

Thanks coda. I don't get it. I said that I have read lots of things and I was still confused, and yet some tool still has to flame. I read the thing on air exchange but since I am new to all of this. It is hard for me to take in everything everyone says with all this new vocab. I am looking for regular man terms. Not stuff you all are accustomed to since you have been doing this for a while.
So thanks again Coda. I appreciate you clarifying it for me.

Now with that said. I am going to try and grow warm button torks. They are supposed to be CO2 whores. So with that said. Should I use more "recirculation" then "air-exchanges"? Should I eliminate "air-exchanges" altogether or just keep them minimal.
Thanks.

Matits it helped me a lot when I first started to take down notes, basically I wrote pretty much like an instruction manual. Then make a seperate list for all the suppies needed on a sheet next to it, so you can be sure you have everything you will need.

Thanks for the advice I think I will get a notebook.

You can still hand fan and mist as usual torks don't need higher CO2 levels they are just more tolerant to them, lack of FAE's increases contam problems noticeably. Button mushrooms are some of the easiest to grow so use the KISS approach. GL

I used a closet once setup a nice little lab trouble was all the shit that was in there ended up in the bedroom that pissed off the GF then I ended up dumping her as she was getting in the way of my sterile culture technique! Ya I got priorities too!!!"
