Taking SGFC outside to sunbathe
    #19357249 - 01/02/14 04:01 AM (10 years, 29 days ago)

So I saw RR posting a few years ago about getting direct sunlight on the cakes/SGFC for a few minutes a day to get the pins going crazy but I don't have anywhere inside that I can get direct sunlight through a window so I was wondering how bad it would be if I just carefully took the whole thing outside and sat it up off the ground for 10 or so minutes just for the sun?

I put my first cakes into the SGFC about a week ago and only one out of six has any signs of pins and I'm not even sure they are pins :confused: I know it's a little early to worry but I would at least like to see a few pins so I thought this might help.

Any advice at all is seriously appreciated.
Peace

My apologies, I found RR recommending someone to take their terrarium outside, I should have spent more time searching, my only worry is that he said terrarium and not SGFC and with all of the holes I'm worried that their may be too much exposure to contaminants?

Never bump your own thread within 24 hours.

A shotgun terrarium is a terrarium, and the contents will benefit from going outside in the sun if it's not too hot or too cold.  Take the lid off and let the sun shine on the cakes.  Mist as necessary so they don't dry out.  If it's a cool day or a rainy day, leave them out as long as you want.

There's far more contaminants floating around in your house than outdoors.

Sorry about that, thank you for the clarification, I hadn't heard it be called a shotgun terrarium before and it seems that assumptions made by noobs never end well so I thought I'd best check. I'll do that in the morning then.

Thank you for the help :smile:
