Monotub Size Tote * 1
    #22285906 - 09/24/15 08:14 PM (8 years, 4 months ago)

Hi people! Cheers from Argentina!
This is my first post, after reading a LOT. I wanted to start with PF Tek and a Shotgun terrarium but day after day browsing the forum i started to change my mind. I´ll go directly to Monotub and bulk. I still have to colonize my quart Jars with Wheat grain (very common in argentina, Rye i cant find) but i still waiting the arrival of my prints ordered to Free Spore España. In the meanwhile im preparing all the stuff, so i wanted to buy a tote for a SAB and because i dont want to go 2 times to the store i will buy the tote for the Monotub too. The first one is already chosen but i need advice on which chose for the monotub.

I can buy the following totes for the porpose:

Measures are in Inches LxWxH (I transformed them because here we use centimeters and litres)

Tote Model 9234
36 Quart
18,3 x 13,4 x 10,8


Tote Model 9242
44 Quart
14,5 x 20,5 x 12,2


Tote Model 9416
38 Quart
19,3 x 13 x 13,2


Tote Model 9417
50 Quart
25,2 x 17,7 x 9,8


Tote Model "Cheap" ----> This one is very cheap compared to similar model from other brand
69 Quart
23,6 x 15,7 x 12,6


Tote Model 9418
72 Quart
25,2 x 17,7 x 13


Tote Model 9419---> This one is a bit expensive
84 Quart
25,2 x 17,7 x 16,2


Which ones can be used for Monotub?? Is preferible 1 bigger or 2 smaller? I listen to you wise cultivators! :thumbup:

:whathesaid: Definitely get that "cheap" one. Any of them will work, size isn't too much an issue. Most of my tubs are 66 qt. :thumbup:

+1, they will just bend over. I had the lids popped off containers by the force of growing shrooms.

If you want, you can make a mini mono out of a tub that size. Too many holes in a smaller size tub like that will lead to excessive FAE, which is a bad thing, and will slow down pin formation as well as dry out your sub surface. You have to find that happy medium.

Here's pasty's mini mono tek: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/21032606

That mini mono´s are half size than mine, but its another idea. I think i will make the typical 6 holes (two bottom long sides, 1 upper short sides) but smaller (if FAE turns limited, i enlarge the holes or loose polyfill). Anyways the principle is the same i think!

Thanks
