"no hole"? So you just manually fan/mist? Or does that work as a "set and forget" tub?

Did you really manually fan and mist?

I think this man wants to know if you fanned and misted.

I don't use holes in my tubs anymore. I leave the lid cracked about a half an inch during the day, and close it up at night. When I say I "leave the lid cracked" I mean that instead of putting the lid on the tub so it's closed, I move the lid off center by about a half an inch.
The way my lighting is set up, is the bulb above each tub is about 6 inches away. This creates warmer air inside the tub than outside the tub, which in turn creates convection currents within the tub. The warmer air exits through the 1/2" opening on one side, and as it exits, pulls fresh air in through the 1/2" opening on the opposite site. So during the day it gets, more or less, constant fresh air while still maintaining a very high RH (RH is controlled by the size of the gap created by having the lid offcenter...which I can easily make larger or smaller by simply moving the lid closer to or farther from being completely closed).
I've stopped modifying my tubs for a couple of reasons, the first being that once I've modified them with holes and whatever else, they become kind of single purpose, in that I can't really use them as regular tubs anymore for things like storage. Second, they look weird as hell and are hard to explain to people asking why I've got tubs with holes all over the place. Third, I've found great success not putting holes in them...in fact, much more success than I had while putting holes in them. Fourth, moving a lid back and forth is a lot easier than messing with "polyfill density". What I mean is, it's hard to accurately measure from one grow to the next "how dense the polyfill was" the last time when you had a good grow. The offcenter lid method is easily measurable...in that you literally measure how far from centered the lid is, and it's easily repeatable.
I give a good fanning just before I seal the tubs up at night. I mist whenever I see that things are dry or on their way to approaching being dry.

So do you put the lighting on one side of the tub to create a temp differential? What kind of lights do you use?

Did you use coco coir/verm for a casing layer? Also what sub did you use to knock them babies up? WBS?

1 26w 6500k CFL is placed about 6 inches above each tub. The bulb is in a "workroom lamp" style aluminum housing (google clamp light and you'll see what I mean) that directs all light into the tub.

Thank you very much. See further down this post for more pictures (I harvested immediately after taking them).

When I birth my tubs, I SPRINKLE completely dry verm onto the surface of my tubs, then mist until it darkens. Then as it lightens in color I mist again...repeat until harvest. And when I say sprinkle, I mean it. I liken it to the way I sprinkle powdered sugar onto french toast.

Thank you, and yes, it is 
I put these in the OP, but figured I'd put 'em here too. These pictures were taken a couple of hours after the ones in the OP and they were harvested immediately afterwards:

is the lamp centered over the tub, or off to one side? do you have any pix of lid placement when it's "cracked"?

More or less it is centered over the top. As for pics, sure (from another thread):

Does the "1/2 inch lid cracking auto air exchange technique " ONLY work when you have a light bulb over your montotub ?
1.Would this method work without a bulb ? 2.What about putting the overlapping lid part near the heater and let the "warm" air from it crawl under the overlapping lid into your montub -
Would this also work ?

1. I don't think it would work nearly as well, no. But I haven't test it, so don't know for sure. 2. There is no heater in the room.

This is nice, post again for the second flush I want to see if that insane canopy cashed your substrate for subsequent flushes, that is nice. I am def going to try that lid/lamp thing.

how often do you mist? and did you use the slatting tek with those?
also, do you think that lid tek would work with the bulb positioned directly against the side of the tub?
