Light isn't a major pinning trigger. however, most growers tape up the sides of clear containers to prevent side pinning

No, most growers use plastic liners inside the tub to prevent side pinning.
Those who tape the sides to block light only think it stops side pinning.
Side pinning is caused by FAE hitting the sides of the substrate, between the substrate and the tub walls.
When a plastic liner is used, it will stick to the sides of the substrate as it consolidates and shrinks, eliminating this microclimate that side pins love.
Light will help the substrate pin anywhere else on the substrate conditions permit...this is not necessarily where the light actually hits the substrate.
Some people use clear liners in their clear tubs and get no side pinning.

People keep asking that, lol.
It will happen when it happens, if it ever happens.
Not dwelling on it, or waiting for it, or expecting it.
Regardless of what kind of "tag" I do or do not have, I will continue to post here helping people.
I sit here on my computer all day anyways....this site keeps me sane.....but I appreciate the kind words.

So the poly fill should just be cleaned with hot water and soap? Ok. I just figured since peroxide was how people cleaned their perlite.... Obvi different materials require different methods
Why would adding polyfill to the holes reduce humidity? I don't see a humidifier, shouldn't poly create a barrier that will retain the moisture in the FC, which should have a higher humidity than the rest of the room? Or will all that poly wick up the moisture or sumthin? I Thot more air exchange meant less humidity. So what is the purpose of poly then, simply to filter large contams?
U say plugging the holes with ANYTHING will lower the humidity?

No one cleans there perlite with peroxide....either boil it, cook it in the oven at 350 for 30 minutes, or use bleach...it should just need to be rinsed when new in the beg.........I would never use peroxide....

Because you would be reducing the amount of fresh air....

Constant fresh air means there will be constant humidity.
Using polyfill in a SGFC is just a noobish mistake that actually lowers the humidity in a properly built SGFC.
Heat and humidity both rise out of the top holes taking the co2 laden air with it.
This will pull fresh air up thru the perlite wicking moisture into the chamber.
If you plug any of the 1/4" holes )which should be placed 2" apart in a grid pattern on all 6 sides) with polyfill it will effectively hinder the chamber from performing the way it was designed.

Yes.
Also fruiting is not a sterile process, it is done in open air, so there is never a need to filter the air in a fruiting chamber.
Polyfill in a monotub is used to regulate fresh air exchange while holding in the humidity....nothing to do with filtering anything.

Just because it says full auto on the lower does not make it so....the internals have to be right.....it's a semi ar-15 lower......I also have 40rd magazines (dangerous assault clips)....they are WAY more killy than the standard 30 rounders.....just ask any politician.....they would also think this is by far the scariest and most deadly rifle known to man.....lol.

I'm not sure where I saw someone using peroxide to clean perlite. Maybe it was that crappy 'Mushroom Growing made easy' video. Anyhow, I see ur logic on the sgfc. The air flows up thru the bottom, collecting the water from the perlite, etc. thanks for the help
That being said...
What gives u the right to own a rifle with 40 round clips, semi auto or not? Seems a bit... I don't know....PARANOID/ DELUSIONAL!
No wonder u have 10000 posts and still aren't a tc!
Since you've given me so much advice, here's some for u
A. Sell ur mushrooms to people u trust instead of relying on intimidation B. move into a better neighborhood so u don't need a fuckin arsenal to feel safe
Peace

Not even sure how to answer A....
I am trying to move to a better neighborhood, but even if I did, I would still have my guns.
There will always be a criminal element in our society, and you must remember, when seconds count, the police are just minutes away....why call the police anyways? Oh yea that's right, because they have guns......didn't see that one comin.....
It is my responsibility to protect myself and my family....I will not be calling the police to save us....I will handle it myself (if and when the time ever arrises) like an independent(trained) human being and call them to scrape up the body.
I will not do my family the injustice of having to wait for the police to show up when they feel like it while some crazy person is kicking down my door...that would be tactically moronic.
Thank you for the advice tho....
