Sounds more like an opinion than factual.

I mean unless you've some facts or bits of information to back up your claim, how am I suppose to know if you're right or just going off you're personal preference?

PMPs lack FAE and are buit pretty much to just keep humidity. They've fallen out of use for that reason. They're just not the best thing to use when you're growing.

I thought PMPs were made with the airs pumps in order to cover the FAE?

It doesn't work anywhere near as well as it sounds man. The air in PMPs usally get stale, and the cakes do best with slight fluctuation. Humidity isn't really super important in growing. There just needs to be water evaporating off of the cakes.

A SGFC has been shown to work way better than a PMP. Here's a link to someone doing an experiment. It's not very fleshed out, but they have some good points.

Yea SGFC's with perlite have been a proven excellent fruiting chamber. Probs the best way to go:tongue2:

The cat asked, “Where do you want to go?”

“I don’t know,” Alice answered.

“Then,” said the cat, “it really doesn’t matter, does it?”

Thanks for the advice once again guys. I'll be making a SGFC instead of a PMP. Sorry for doubting you flabber.

Hand this laying around. Would it work for my fruiting chamber?

Also make sure your fruiting chamber has clear sides. Its okay if the top isnt clear tho but it might help

I went to Walmart. They have a 62L tub and a 72L tub. The 62L tub has a clear lid but doesn't fit as tight as the 72. But Walmart was out of stock of the clear lids for the 72 which fits a lot tighter. So I guess ongoing to end up getting a black lid for the 72 and putting a plexiglass window in the top.

Is 72L a decent size chamber?

62 L should be fine. You have 6 cakes? I've done 12 in a 30L sgfc, although I did have to double stack them :tongue: . Either one should give you room to expand the number of cakes you fruit.

October 9th
Finally went and checked on them today. And here are the results.


Jar A:
A lot of new growth.



Jar B:
Currently my leading jar in growth. It's the only jar that has growth on opposite sides of the jar.




Jar C:
Coming a long ways from showing no signs of life at all Jar C has shown its first signs of life on the side. But check out the bottom! My assumption that it was growing from the inside out was correct.




Jar D:
A lot of new growth. What are these fuzzy things to the upper right side of the growth?



Jar E:



Jar F:



All the jars have made quite some progress since the last time I've seen them. I've lowered the temperature in the closet to 79 degrees and I'm going to monitor the growth and compare the difference.

I also will soon beginning gathering the supplies for my fruiting chamber.

October 12th
I lowered the temperature of the closet to 79 degrees. I haven't noted any significant increase or decrease in the growing of the mycelium so I've left it there. The jars have started having a bit of condensation on the inside of the jars is this normal? Other than the water starting to appear on the insides of the jars, everything seems to be going according to plan. I've had a contamination scare. But it's too soon to tell if it is or not. So we will see.

Here are the updated pictures.

Jar C:



Jar D:



Jar E:




Jar F:

Do you have a small hole in the lid?

Just checking because I was seeing if there needs to be air exchange while myc develops and while sanitation occurs.
