I hope all is well. I loved you post.
I was wondering about an idea, and I couldn't find a answer anywhere. I would like to know, if would be possible to use the synthetic filters used in the jars for air exchange, in place of the polyfil in the holes of the monotub. Would that works?
I really appreciate it.

Thank you.

I've tried using SFD's, but they restrict FAE too much. They are great for GE uring colonization in jars, but once you are ready to initiate pinning in a mono, Lots of FAE is beneficial and SFD's just really don't provide it.

for the monotub holes, I only have a bit for 1 inch not 1.5 inch. Will it still work? if not, how can I fix it? can I use a hot screwdriver and melt the hole the right size? any ideas? no money for a new bit.

I have never used a hole that small, but it will probably work. I honestly can't say for sure how well though.

I would put holes a little higher though because you may have to loosen the poly a little more to allow adequate FAE. I've found loose poly on the bottom holes can cause the substrate to get dry underneath them and result in contamination in those areas.

I would keep the bottom of the holes about 2-3" above the substrate to so FA will mix with the humid air better and help prevent the drying.

If you have an Harbor Freight or Northern tools neaby, they have hole-saws really cheap. I got a kit there for $5.99. Walmart will allow you to return it after used. Just say you tried it and it didn't get the job done because it doesn't cut well enough.

You mightbe able to cut it with a hot knife or soldering iron.

Someone who has used 1" holes may come along and give advice based on experience.

EZ-Felt. The stiff kind. Allows more FAE than SFD's.

great tutorial thanks @spitball ! i just finished RTVing magnets to the tub. i have a question though if you can help me out, i know this is old thread but do you think

would it be safer, to when i slap on the fruiting magnet, to tape the sides of of the magnet to the tub for the very small gaps inbetween the two magnets attaching to eachother?

that would still be better for me than constantly having to deal with polyfil.

as long as these dont go through any harsh conditions, say water or heat or breaking, they should relatively last a very long time would you say?

Why do you not use tyvek on the inside to prevent the moisture from escaping by siliconing a piece? What is the benefit of the polyfil its not to prevent bacteria or small particles?

You can sneeze on your monotub. The poly isnt a filter. Its an air regulator.

What is the value then of having the polyfil at all why just not have holes why would you need the poly?

Why not attach tyvek to keep moisture in?

Why not use sfd filters?

Why use anything at all?

You don't necessarily need the polyfill while you're fruiting but it can reduce air exchange when leaving the hole completely open would allow too much. It is essentially the same as reducing the hole size. You could do the same by taping over part of the hole. Filters tend to block too much air.

Why not just make smaller holes?
