Variation of wax paper tek.. Would this work?
    #18721183 - 08/17/13 11:34 PM (10 years, 6 months ago)

When using monotubs made up of WBS spawned to coir/verm(uncased), I've had issues with RH and never really get many pins in the middle. So I want to try the wax paper tek(not during colonization, only after introducing fruiting conditions to hold humidity at the surface of the sub). The only thing is I can't access the tubs every single day to switch the wax paper so I was thinking of trying aluminum foil instead because it won't get moldy. According to my research, aluminum foil is frowned upon and wax paper is superior because it allows light through, but you also want to lift it and fan here and there to promote FAE. So I was wondering if this would work to make up for the light issue and FAE issue-
Can I use a sheet of aluminum foil with micropore covered holes all over it? This way some light would get through and there would be more air flow so I can set it and forget it once I introduce fruiting and throw the foil on?

The best solution would be to get your RH and FAE right.

But in the meantime, try bubble wrap.

Whats wrong with wax paper? Its super cheap...bubble wrap is next, but foil would not work because of lack of light
