This has nothing to do with the failure rate that comes with doing the bucket tek.
Proper pasteurization is better, hands down.

Not really, when you consider it is being done in open air.
Take all the sterile precautions you want, there will still be millions of contams in the substrate.
This is a given when dealing with open air.
When you properly pasteurize the substrate, you are making sure that all of the substrate is heated evenly and thoroughly.
You cannot do this by pouring boiling water into a bucket and sealing it up.
Plain and simple, proper pasteurization trumps the bucket tek.

you got a point, it is obviously not superior to proper pasteurization, but RR does the straw this way and it works!bucket or a tub, straw or coir. same principle, no?
