MonoTub misting/fanning NECESSARY?

Hi all. Got a quick question for anyone experienced with monotubs:
So I been working with PF tek grows for a while and I'm gonna move up to mono's. I'm also moving my grow location to a place where I wont be able to come mist/far throughout the day.
Do you need to mist/fan a monotub like you would a BRF PF grow? Or is it more self-sufficient? I was even considering installing an automated mister on a timer, but I'm not sure how I could run a automated fanning system. Anyone have experience with self-sustained grows?
Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

It all depends on how well you dial it in.
Check out my super high spawn ratio thread down a ways. I didn't mist once
-------------------- The mushroom speaks: '"I am old, older than thought in your species, which is itself fifty times older than your history. Though I have been on earth for ages I am from the stars. My home is no one planet, for many worlds scattered through the shining disc of the galaxy have conditions which allow my spores an opportunity for life... How the hypercommunication mode operates is a secret which will not be lightly given to man. But the means should be obvious: it is the occurrence of psilocybin and psilocin in the biosynthetic pathways of my living body that opens for me and my symbiots the vision screens to many worlds"

You shouldn't need to mist/fan.
Check out Frank's post "dialing your monotub like a boss" I believe.

DIAL IN: Tightly stuff your bottom 4 holes, and lightly stuff 1 hole up top. (TIGHT!!!! On the bottom 4)
Then leave 1 top hole open.
Have a fan oscillating somewhere in the room, not pointing directly on the tub tho.
Mist when its not glistening, stop when its pinning.

If dialed in, a mono shouldn't need misting or fanning, especially before the first flush.
I only recommend using a fan in the room if you have signs that you actually need one.Not everyone needs a fan.

If it's dialed in correctly you never need to mist or fan. Frank taught me that  I have had superb success following Franks teks

You need to adjust to your conditions, it all really depends on how humid your location is . But the short answer is you can certainly dial a tub in where you don't have to mist and fan.

It has been pointed out time and time again that you DO NOT NEED to mist or fan a mono, if it is properly dialed in. It isn't cakes in a SGFC, its a mono.
TC's have said this repeatedly.

Nobody said your growing skills are inadequate. Nobody is belittling you. I am not questioning your experience either.
I don't understand what went wrong today but I would highly recommend for you to take a smoke break from the forums.

monotubs were designed to be set and forget.with that said i have found that after the first flush and or a dunk misting and fanning can help addition flushes.
