A couple pan cyan questions

Hey guys, just a couple of questions. I tried the search function but couldn't get a definitive answer. First off, I have seen many teks include straw in their bulk substrates for pans. Is this necessary to get decent sized fruits? I plan on using hpoo/coir/verm but I don't know where I would get straw, and I also don't like how easy it is to contam straw. Secondly, can pan cyans do good in a monotub style settup? I've seen many yes and no answers to this. Some people say they need more fae, but couldn't you just add more holes with less polyfil? I'm sorry if these questions are somewhere in the search, but I haven't seen them. Thanks.

i'd just use the h-poo/coir/verm/gypsum(i know you didn't say gypsum) but if you wanna do the mono thing i might forget about the set and forget and and probly would either not stuff the holes at all or only the bottom
--------------------
  It doesn't matter what i think of you...all that matters is clean spawn I'm tired do me a favor

Yeah, I have gypsum and I always use it, I just forgot to say so. I'll stick with that, thank you. And that sounds doable to me, I just love monotubs and really don't want to build a sgfc unless I have to.

From what I've read, the purpose of straw is to fluff up the poo so that myc can run through easily. Seems to me that the coir and verm would serve roughly the same purpose.
Also, horse poo has a naturally fluffier texture than cow poo, thus requiring less fluffer.
-------------------- I'd hit it.

Alright, cool. I've got plenty of coir/verm and it seems a lot easier than straw which seems like a total pain in the ass. I think I'll setup a monotub as I normally do with cubes, just I'll fan it more and case it of course.
