polyfill in terrarium
    #17303896 - 11/29/12 03:32 PM (12 years, 1 month ago)

would it be better to drill a bunch of tiny holes in my tub or a 4 inch holes around its perimeter like a monotub.

it seems like the monotub style would work for both ways

but once you drill through the tub so much then it wouldn't be functional as a monotub

bur with the monotub vent schema, you could use the tub for aboth a terrarium or a monotub right?

how many holes should i put in my fc and stuff with polyfill? I think the polyfil might help keep humidity in as opposed to other methods, i  could be wrong, but this just seems like it could be true?

I've done shotgun style before ( manny holes all around) . Got good results. But now I want great resutls so in going for six big holes with polly fill inside ( polyester) . U will want to put 4 holes above where the substrate will be. Then 2 holes more near the top ( id say on the longer widthe side) for maximum air movment on the inside. My 2 cents.          Peace:thumbup:

It all depends on what you plan on growing.

If u plan on fruiting cakes or small trays, then a SGFC(Shotgun Fruiting Chamber) is recommended.

If you plan on doing bulk, then a monotub design or larger trays in a greenhouse is what you want.

Fruiting cakes or small trays in a monotub will not work..

Also, a mono uses 2" holes, not 4" holes

This all depends on the tek you follow...

But yea it's never 4 inches, TL uses 1 1/8" hole I believe...mine are 2".....Anywhere from 1-2" is the average monotub hole size..

4" holes are what you put in your SAB to put your arms through.

It just gives you more room to move around...it's certainly not a requirement.

If you use 4" holes there is enough space to put in and take out jars that you are working with also.

You need a dedicated hole because you're growing penis envy?  I don't get it.

would it be terrible to drop a colonized tray of wormcastings/coir onto the kitchen floor??

or should one just simply recolonize at 70 degrees?
