I would say 30-40 quarts is the sweet spot and 12-15 inches tall. My 68 quart had an area about 2-3" that basically circled the middle of the sub were nothing grew but aborts which i assume would be part due to a lack of FAE in that area of the sub. I fanned pretty often and honestly i think these MSGs get a great amount of benefit from the extra fanning much like shotguns. A very important detail is to have the 1st row of holes as close to the surface of the sub as possible to increase that FAE across the surface of the sub. mist the side walls and the lid. fan fan fan. lightly mist the surface of the sub but only 1-2 sprays. fan more. always.

I wonder if it was "Fixed"
Drilled a few holes and then my battery died
My SGFC worked out exceptionally well I could see this working out pretty well.
I will post my progress here
has anyone streyed from the standard 1/4" holes every 2"? If so what was the outcome?

I in fact messed up when i did mine at like 7 in the morning on a 48 hours no sleep binge and did 1/2" holes. during the first few weeks i taped every other hole in a checkerboard pattern w/ microporse to help hold in humidity during this stage were humidity is a little more important then FAE. Fanned like 5-6 times a day. sometimes more. Then once the primordia started to have little tiny brown tips i removed all the tape to increase FAE since once they start popping out the slow make more and more CO2 and use more oxygen. I would advise this method if you like but on a smaller scale then 68 quarts. The entire middle of mine were I had the heaviest growth didn't make a single abort.

I went with the standard this time and I think I will make adjustments as needed and "IF" needed.

Sterilite 64-Quart 1928 Latch Box Green Glaze or GG.
holes?....uhm. lemme check...
Assuming I am not seeing double long sides 33 on each long side > 11 per row@3 rowes per long side short sides are 18 on each side : 6 per row@3 rowes per short side for a sub total of 102(this excludes the lid)
Lid is 31 holes at "roughly" 2-3" apart more on the higher than 2" side of things.
Making for a total of: 133 holes

Anonjon, What are your thoughts on adding a bit of dry verm on thee top? I have no reason for doing it other than I always make shit complicated
I look at myco work like a chef making a cake... a bit of this a bit of that...I will eventually learn but I will have to "fail" or "succeed" many times.
I'm A bit drunk right now so whateva....
I have this "tub with holes in it" colonizing in two bags that are applied to each end because the bags are not big enough to envelope the tub with room to "tie off" and allow for the high level of C02 buildup....I would appreciate any comments on this anon.

No drill to the 4 inch mark where your holes start. Under 4inches is covered in duck tape or use trash bags. Some people put a single hole at a bottom corner to help drain water after the 1st flush. cover up the holes for 7-12 days and let it grow in the surface. Putting the whole thing into a trash bag works but i had a water pooling issue from condensation buildup and just put ducktape over all the holes after the 3rd or 4th day. Nice tub.

You did fine thats how they should be, drill no holes beneath the substrate layer and every 2" above with 1/4 holes...Im doing a 56quart one of these and its pinning like mad, its my first grow but probly 300 pins formed, i'm hoping they all come up. These have great fae if air current in the room and require little attention, but they do benefit from a little attention, like all things.

My bad. I didn't mean you forgot to drill holes on the bottom. I'm just asking. I'm building one myself.
