First Time Bulk Grow w/ 3.5 x 3 x 5 Grow Area
    #21698755 - 05/19/15 03:09 PM (8 years, 8 months ago)

So I've grown once before with a fair amount of success with cakes using the PF Tek. Now I'm getting more ambitious and plan to use to PF Tek and then transfer them to a different substrate in trays.

I've got four different syringes with four different cubes to play with  though I understand the differences exist within how they are grown and what they are grown on.

I'm thinking of setting up 4 grated shelves in the area I'm working within. Entirely lined with plastic with light strips throughout. Sky is the limit with my current indoor location.



I figured it'd be wise to consult the more experienced and seasoned shamans. Any suggestions or thoughts? Mostly wondering about the best utilization of the space in regards to air flow and not overcrowding it. I have looked around and not seen too many multiple shelf operations. Hopefully, I haven't overlooked any useful threads.

Cheers!

I'll also be happy to update with progress reports and photos as things get underway (within the next week or two).

make it the size of a room and put a fruiting chamber in the middle or make your little cabinet into a greenhouse, and look up greenhouse/martha TEKs

I think if you are trying to build a small area to do a greenhouse type thing youd be better off using one of the "Martha" style greenhouses... its a wire rack with shelves and plastic tent , you can add humidifyers and whatnot.

Really aside from that you might wanna try monotub or mini mono style fruiting chambers instead.




Virtually no maitinence, can be stacked / moved around easy enough.. all you gotta do is add walls and a lid to your trays!

cubes usually hate closets, and being hidden grows.

Interesting, could this be for lack of airflow and natural light? Wouldn't a fan/air purifier and proper lighting make up for that?

Thanks for the advice. I'll look into the greenhouse/martha now.

some people get it to work but it's stale air and in making a air exchange, humidity setup most people fail because they assume mushrooms want 99% RH all the time and they either give too much or too little air flow in accordance with the RH requirements. some people pull it off but if they do it's usually a greenhouse
