I got a couple 64 quart MSHs on the way too. Should be interesting to compile all of our results and see how the design works with larger tubs.

I was thinking about doing one of each. Ones going to be Vietnam, other is gonna be Brazil. Thing is with a standard mono, you can always tape up the big holes and drill more small ones. Cant go other way around (well I guess you could, would just take a lot of tape.) . Can always finish up drilling the bottom though and adding perlite to convert all the way back to a shotgun I guess.

What's to stop this from being used on full sized tubs? Not enough air getting through the whole thing?

Hi Doc
A couple Questions
1. During colonization wouldn't the holes cause the substrate to fruit prematurely since your adding FAE before the substrate is fully colonized
2. How do you limit the air to where there only getting GE before you fruit them?
3. Do you actually tape up every hole during colonization?

Doc beat me to it.
1. During colonization they are in a bag. That limits GE and cuts out light.
2. You want FAE during fruiting now just GE. You dont want to limit air. you want as much FAE as possible with out loosing your humidity level.
3. No you put it in a black trash bag and close it up.

It's not me, different guy. I prep grain like in RR's videos; soak, simmer, strain. Only wbs is smaller and hydrates faster.

With wbs soak 4 hours to overnight, simmer 5-10 mins or until al dente. Wire mesh strainers are about 100x better than any other- worth the extra money.

Yeah I was thinking my strainer might not hold bird seed because perlite often slips through.
let them strain real good after simmering to correct? i read the teks should be easy
im spawning cakes to your mini mono just getting ready to go to wbs so its easier then 15 jars lol
