i haven't found perlite in a regular store, and ordering would cost me more in postage then the price of the perlite.
but i don't think that's the problem anyway.

the problem is i don't have a way to make 1/4" holes.
i have a soldering iron i use to punch holes and it is 1/8".

another issue i am having is the placement of the tub. i don't really have
any place i can put it where i don't walk past it all the time.

in any case i am starting to lean toward the other solution of switching to monotubs.
i'm gonna get into that anyway since i want to grow pans, might as well do cubes the same way.

1/4" have 4x the area that 1/8" does. because the math says r2, and not 2r.

when you have much lower FAE than supposed to you cant mist as much as you normally would, mushrooms dont like staying wet.

and fuzzy feet wont go back IME, but next flush will look better now that you got better air exchange.

Hydroton is fine but the way he drilled his holes is not. Drill the holes to spec, as recommended, there is a reason its 1/4" every two inches.

meh screwit.

i'm switching to monos.
the more i learn the more that looks like the better option for me.

here's one i built earlier for pans:


i added pvc pipes where the holes are to make it easier to adjust the polystuff and i made some caps
to put on the bottom holes.
the tub is 20qt and the bottom holes are at 3" up.

If you decide to use liners those PVC pipes are going to make it a nightmare mixing the tubs.

i was planning to do the mixing in the container i pasteurise the bulk sub in.
also i might do a grow or 2 with just grains or crumbled cakes and a casing layer.

so i was hoping to get a print out of the large one,
but it buckled under it's own weight, detached from the cake a
bit and started dying.

i am presuming this is another sign of low FAE and added some more holes.
as they say in the navy 'there is no wrong hole'.

is slow growth another sign of low FAE?

i seem to be getting much faster growth from the pin stage now,
but it could be genetics. these are amazonian that colonised much quicker then
the cambodians.

nope, area = pi multiplied by r2.
1/42= 1/16
1/82= 1/64

1/16 = 4x 1/64 :nerd:

not really nerdy tho, grade school math where i'm from :tongue2:
