currently I have 4 holes on the bottom, one on each side that is stuffed tightly with poly and on the top box I got 2 rows of 1/4 inch holes 5 ontop and four just below it on both ends. Currently I have two holes that are taped. I guess it wont hurt to fan, but I have tape going around the joint where the two tubs join to form one tub. I would like to learn how to dial in so I dont have to fan, the benefits of a mono. I'll add this pic I took an hour ago, People like pictures.

That's average IMO, sometimes it takes a bit longer for the mycelium to finish colonizing the inside of the tub, before pinning is initiated. Anyways, here is the tub right now. Pinning has just started! 


"Oh, boy, this is going to be great!"
I have started a 6qt micro mini. I'm using someone's tek who I forget at the moment, but it's more SGFC with tape around the bottom. (Doc_T's, I had to look it up. Damn. Sucks to get old. Half-zeimers.) <shakes head> With me it's more about efficient use of minimal space. I don't have room for dozens of quarts, so I have to maximize the potential. Really, all I need is a few fruits to test my growing skills and learn more.
This is a good thread for me to follow. Well done, sir.

Not surprising. Most Catholics I've met are confused.

I'm using two 1 1/4 inch holes on the top on the short sides and two 1 1/4 inch holes on the bottom of the long sides. Lightly stuffed on top and tight on bottom. My middle tubs have no bottom holes right now but that might change.
I don't tape though so there's some ventilation on the bottom. I also have two fans creating circular air flow in my grow closet.
NM the holes in the pic. I gave up on those tub lids.

How does that setup work for you, is it a proven tek? Sounds solid, thanks for the info too.

Sooo many tubs!! You'll be gettin some good flushes. That fan helps greatly with the FAE, good job. I use a window fan pointed away from my tub, so it doesn't dry out the surface. I'm not misting my tub since the first pins appeared, I wanna see how well it does with the set it & forget it method.

Cool, Sounds good, wont hurt to try it and I can always add more holes if I need to, but I dont think I would. Yeah I want to be able to get it down to set it and forget it too. Thats the purpose behind mono's from what I understand.

I'm still experimenting. Dialing in my tubs and keeping everything cased. My last grow I tried open air fruiting when I was home and tubs over the top when I wasn't. I think I over misted the fuck out of everything and generally just loved it them to death. My yields sucked.
I mostly like that I have so much colonization space and that it's easy to hide when we have company. Eventually I'll get the FAE straightened out and hopefully run them set and forget.
