Polyfil or breathable tape...
    #14294544 - 04/15/11 08:38 AM (12 years, 9 months ago)

Should I use poly-fil in my monotub, or is breathable tape ok?

Polyfill is what most people use.  I think the tape may restrict the air flow a little too much.  The polyfill acts as a barrier, but also allows good air exchange.  Just watch your humidity levels in your chamber.

Cool, do you think I should build a FC for my monotub? Or will it hold its own humidity?

monos are pretty "set & forget" once you get them dialed in. It'll hold its own humidity as long as the poly is @ the right density in the holes.

I loosely stuff my holes & don't fan or mist & my monos do fine.

So polyfil, is a must?
