You don't have to sterilize polyfil.
It's just a suggestion if you're taking it outta an old couch or blanket.

Just toss it in a jar & the in your PC w/ a grain run.
Or, if you want to do it by itself, 20 minutes @ 15 PSI will be fine.

Alright, Guess just wait to see if i do it or not. Doubt I will since its new/bagged poly-fill and like Aids, like to think it wont happen to me.

Quite sure its not any sort of issue but the poly-fill that i have is the "Quilt batting" type. which is essentially the same exact material just made out into a sheet instead of stuffing. Shall it go back and get the classic stuffing. or stuff the holes with this?

its better to line your tubs with black trash bags prior to adding the sub rather than taping the sides, the bag will shrink with the sub almost eliminating side pins through successive flushes.

I've only used the classic stuff.
If you have access to it, I say use it. If not, the other stuff will work.

I've use trash bags as liners. They didn't stop nor reduce my side pins.
Actually, it made it harder to harvest the side pins due to the bag sticking to the substrate.

Also duct tape is in no way light proof, unless you use 5-6 layers, better to use the bags as suggested above or spray paint the outside with black, far more effective.

Other than that, looks like an amazing room/set-up, congrats on your efforts/commitment. :thumbup:

That Gorilla tape works real well too. Until your sub pulls away.

tape works fine and second flush side pins are usually easy to get to somewhat because of the gap.

but to almost eliminate side pins the trash bag has done me well.
if your just doing Damien5050's tek tape eould be fine because coir IME atleast has comparably shit second flushes anyway.

the polyfill is not used to help keep contams out
poly fill is only used to keep the moisture in
once the tub is fully colonized it will be less likely to contam

edit-
weird this was supposed to be up a lot farther but some reason didnt post right away

They're not light, I can tell ya that.
My best guess would be that they're around 20 lbs, maybe more.

Not that it makes too much of a difference (and this is my opinion), but you didn't want to go for the 4in mark? I know that'd be a lot of substrate. And maybe you would end up with a bigger flush:shrug: Or not (I'd like  someones opinion on that). But it sound good for what your spawning to bulk. And that's going to be smart putting in that extra support for your shelves:thumbup:
