Fan under SGFC??? Just a thought
    #14006675 - 02/22/11 10:33 AM (12 years, 11 months ago)

Just got to thinking, and would a fan silimar to a laptop cooling pad underneath a sgfc be a good idea if the fans were very gentle? obviously you would have to spray regularly, but i would think that this on a timer would create fantastic FAE.

All opinions/thoughts welcome...

Sounds like a good idea (and one that I've thought of myself actually), but it would cause the perlite to dry out a lot quicker. You'd need to mist a lot. I bet that you would get an amazing pinset though.

yeah i agree it would suck the moisture outta the perlite real fast, but i think if i did this id just flip the fan on for five ten minutes to suck the co2 out then mist

it would be a good boost to humidity, and spraying should be on the to do list anyways and just give it a good soak. sounds like an idea to me.

what is the purpose.

do you think the SGFC does not get enough fresh air exchange as is?

before reinventing the wheel ask yourself what you are even trying to improve.

Tried this. Horrible results. The fan dried the perlite out in 3-4 days. Before the cakes even had time to pin. So come pinning time the moisture levels were very low and got a horrible pinset. The SGFG worked better alone than with the fan.

I agree, im not planning on using this anytime soon, it was just a pipe dream. But if the SGFC is so good that it doesnt need improvement then why does it need to be fanned multiple times a day? sounds to me like a solution for this wouldnt be a bad idea. Not trying to sound like a made a breakthrough because im sure tons of ppl have thought of this, and tried it. it was just a thought... I plan on following tek to a T.

I got my syringes today that i thought would be bogus because of the ill fated decision on vendor i made(the dreaded sporestore, did it b4 i knew o shroomery), but they actually look promising, plan to test them on a couple brf cakes.

How does one come to the conclusion that the syringes look promising? Does any one syringe look different than another?

Because i was informed that they were just sterile water because the vendor is a scam, but i can see spore of some sort floating around. That is how one can tell that ones syringe looks promising.
Im basing this observation on the fact that i expected them to be water only, they could still be junk, the black substance could be dirt for all i know, but this certainly gives one more hope than a syringe of water.

Could you refer me or guide me to the tek that shows how to make a sgfc that doesnt require attention? This would be helpful to not only me but many others im sure?  If your system is set up and doesnt require fanning please share, is it the hole size, hole spacing, what?

I know a hybrid one that doesn't supposedly take much fanning and no misting.

If it is constant FAE with no fanning and constant humidity with no RH drop even though there is a fan on constantly you should check out my thread and start learning how tight to pack polyfil just enough to let air flow without dropping humidity, gotta warn ya, it's a long one...check it out though endless FC uses as long as you dial in the fan speed and the filter thickness right for your FC its universal for any FC

There's no such thing.
Until you can grow mushrooms by hand, you can't automate it.
Once you can do it, then automation comes as the next step.

Says who?

Perhaps for 'best' results, it should be fanned with the lid whenever you mist, but the fact is, I and many other people who work long hours have left them unattended and had excellent results.  I've left a shotgun terrarium full of fruiting cakes closed up for over 24 hours, and the CO2 level has never exceeded 1000 ppm.

im sure there is already an automated way of doing this but i bet its not cheap. automation is never cheap plus working out all the bugs to get it to work like putting a fan on a timer and getting a mister to spray when needed and have something to filter out co2. a sophisticated setup like that is not for an ametuer. its not a cheap proposition and it makes no sence to have automation on a small scale. at that point you might as well set up a lab.
