Here's a great GH mod to double your capacity with pics!

So, I've been wanting to find a nice clean way to have my 4 tier GH hold more than 8 subs at once. This is a 100 times better and more "clean" than having the bare subs on the racks. I used to have 4 PVC pipes vertically and leaned my subs up against them to fit 16 total.
I finally took the time to realize my "dream." I much prefer to use trays so that the subs don't crumble and fall on top of other subs and eventually to the floor inside the GH.
Here is a PVC rack I made with 1" PVC pipe. It costs about $40-$50 at Lowe's/Depot. I have 2 vertical pipes on each side and 2 horizontal pipes for each tier exactly half way up to give equal room for each sub. These 2 horizontal pipes in between each tier are holding up 2 extra trays each. Now I have 16 tubs, mostly 1:3 ratio.
The only thing I'm missing is a legit hygrometer, since the $5 digital one I have always says that it's 99% relative humidity. When I take it outside of the GH it does go down to 50 or even 30%, so it's not broke, but it's highly unlikely that it's constantly that humid inside.
 
Let me know if anyone wants to see closer pics of the PVC or how I secured the sides PVC. Hope this helps anyone trying to do bulk and aren't satisfied with 8 subs at a time.

Sweet. Yeah, I'd like to see exactly what you have going on there. Plus a look at what you are using to humidify.

I'm not sure what size stand alone shelving you have there but my green house is a 4 tier set up that is 36w×18d×72h and each shelf can hold 24 muda bottles which equals a total of 96 bottles. Muda claims he can pull 1.25 oz from 2 flushes from each bottle. So with those averages, it should be possible to pull 120 dry oz of mushrooms in two flushes with one green house. I don't know if you're willing to go in this direction but it is an option.
