Does a pmt need holes?
    #14419892 - 05/08/11 02:40 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

This is my first time and my cakes are dunking atm. My terrarium is a cool whip container with a big ziploc bag ontop and secured on with an elastic. Im gunna put an inch or two of perlite and rest the dunked/rolled cakes on it. 

I have no holes in this pmt so im confused on how much i should fan/mist as all the teks i've read are (shotgun?) .

Would cutting some holes in the bag and putting micropore tape on them be a better alternative?

Bro, you need to make a SGFC.  They are brain-dead-simple.

If you were to do nothing more than change to a larger
tub than a cool-whip container to one that is tall enough
to allow for 4" of moist perlite, the height of the cakes,
and the height of the hoped-for shrooms, and then you drill/cut
1/4" holes every 2", you will have what you really need.

Trying to maintain fruiting conditions by hand is reeeaaally
hard to do effectively.

Anyway, best of luck,

JD
