Damn Magash, what the hell else do you grow/synth. You seem to have the best setups.

I would put the tape back on but adding water may be a bigger risk than is worth taking at this point. I use a coolmist, ultrasonic combo. The coolmist runs all the time and the ultrasonic comes on 3 times a day for a few minutes, that takes the place of misting by hand. To put it simply it's the lazy mans set up.
Thanks to all for the comments

I got something for you to try. Check my old post called fucken with the cakes 2. What I do is break up the cakes and put them in a container and do just like a casing. The thing I do different is to flip the container upside down then case what use to be the bottom of what you were gonna use as a casing. Of course if your using cakes as spawn for poo or rye berrys you can't beat that. Here is a pic of one of the big cakes I made just starting out. The strain for this one is PR

I only use one layer of tin-foil over my jar lids, and I leave it on during incubation. No problems.
Oh yea, Mag, stop hijacking threads
