Should I mist my bulk?
    #14554291 - 06/03/11 05:08 AM (12 years, 8 months ago)

Yesterday I put my bulk tub into a shotgun FC. I didn't mist that day because the top of the sub was already saturated with droplets, due to the condensation on the lid of the container it was colonizing in. It's the second day now, and there's still lots of droplets on top, as though it had just been misted. I have been fanning 5-6 times a day, but the top always seems to be pre-misted, if you like.

Should I mist?

No, only if it looks dryish.

If you can see droplets on it, just continue fanning, you'll be golden.

Shotgun tubs are hard to manage. No one can tell you exactly when / if to water. It strictly depends on the conditions in the room / in the tub.

If you end up having pins only around the perimeter of the substrate, it means you have an RH / moisture issue. This is the most common result of the shotgun tubs unless you're keeping them in a martha like Doc_T does. The slightest breeze dries those mofo's out.

I have 6 inches of perlite, which I'm still misting despite the fact I'm not misting the bulk sub. Hopefully that should be enough to keep RH up and avoid side pinning. I also lined the container with a trashbag, along with some greaseproof paper on top.

Oh, you have a tray inside a shotgun FC. You're fine. I was imagining u had a shotgun monotub.
