Terrarium help
    #9819953 - 02/18/09 01:09 PM (15 years, 1 month ago)

Im planning on making a Shotgun-Terrarium with a cool moisture humidifier in my room to boost the ambient humidity to the required 50%.
However im wanting to make a wooden box to put the terrarium inside( for security reason) im wondering if this will somehow block the humidity and possibly mess up the grow conditions.

If you put the shotgun FC inside of a box, your defeating it's purpose. The shotgun FC was designed to give your cakes the proper amount of FAE. Without that, it's going to be a bitch for the cakes to actually pin. Unless you fan it twice as much as you would if it was out in the open. Do you have any other ways of hiding it w/o boxing it up?

You also don't need 50% as I originally thought.  They'll work fine at 30%, but I refuse to live in a house below that so haven't tested it farther.

As said, don't put it in a wooden box.  You want fresh air circulation which is the number 1 pinning trigger.  The terrarium needs to be out in the open, and exposed to bright light during the daytime.

just move the chamber to your closet if you need to hide it. If someone goes through your closet, give them amnesia.
