We;ll definitely need a tech. I can step in if we have all of the manuals, but we won't. :frown:

I'm just wondering how those plastic lids will stand up to the heat you put on them when you sterilize your substrate....:confused:

Those plastic lids are fine at PC temps.

Q: better to plug the bottoms of the nooc portals with silicone now; or later, when they start losing their seal?

Not quite sure I understand the question, but-
the lids are better to work with when new, so do any drilling, scuffing or siliconeing right when you get them out of the box, not months later.

I'll explain better (i hope):
I used blue syringe injection/extraction plugs for my lids (as previously pictured). They are siliconed to the lid and just about fully cured (24hrs). Many will fill the void of the plug with silicone at time of construction. While some, will wait and fill the plug void later, when the plug starts to lose its elastic youth (to prolong its life/use).

Wanted informative opinions as to which might be better. Thank you for your input :-)

IMO, there's no need for separate ports if you have silicone. But it's cool either way.

I went ahead and filled the cavities. I'll be moving away from cakes and moving onto nocc'ing grain, once I'm successful with cakes. With the cavities filled, I won't have to worry about grain getting jammed into the plugs :-)

Had to reread some TEKs to remember ALL the "why for", LOLz

IMO the experience and the trial and error is what makes somebody a successful cultivator. But trivial knowledge certainly plays a part of it all. Hell, it only took 5 years of experimentation, and shroomery browsing for me to get my methods down solid haha

good luck to ya though.



OK SUPER NOOB QUESTION ALERT!!!!!

Whats IMO mean?

I'm really worried about contamination, where I live.  I swear, even plastic will rot here, lol.  As such, I am very concerned about my first, simple, cheap fruiting chamber... Does anyone have any suggestions?
Note: it high humidity, almost year round here, so I'm not worried about drying out. Just FREAKED about contams ;-/

hmmmm, :confused2:


Calm down, don't worry about contams. You are going to have to learn to deal with them one way or another. Usually we learn the hard way. We get through the teething period, and before you know it we are a brat that thinks they know everything,....... Fast forward a couple years and we realize that we don't know shit about fungi yet, we haven't even gotten off the base never mind being anywhere near the tip of the iceberg.

It is pretty cool actually.

You should enjoy it.
