I've never soaked. Mostly because I've found it increased contam rates unless you dry it out a bit before putting it back into fruiting. Mist heavily a few days that will help out a bit but I still find you get good flushes without soaking.

Also depends on the size of the actual substrate your using. If your doing pretty large casings then it can be hard to soak. Small stuff is much easier.

I've never soaked my monotubs either.  Mycjunky says he found it to increase contams, which is likely true, but I don't do it because it seems like such a huge pain in the ass.  Actually, it IS a huge pain in the ass, because I tried it with one of my first tubs and said to hell with this shit.

I simply mist the shit out of my tubs between flushes.  After I harvest a flush, I spray just like I would if I was misting my fruits in mid-flush, but with more water.  So much water that there is standing water on top of the substrate.  It will soak back in and all will be well.  I've gotten 3+ great flushes off of many tubs doing this.
