I wouldn't stack em. I mean go for it and let us know how that yields forsur, but the cakes stacked on the top are likely to dry out quickly, as air is heavier when it is saturated to capacity with water, aka humidity, and humid air rises slightly from the perlite in eval, then falls out of the lower holes in your SGFC. Wouldn't the cakes stacked way up high not receive the same amount of humidity? Totally a shot in the dark based off how dense humid air is..Someone correct me if this method is viable.

Humid air is lighter than dry air and rises.

Humid air rises. That is a fact. Stacking cakes is good too. All you need now is mist properly, and wait it out.

Research it
Edit: I'm gonna edit this a bit and also add that your understanding of a sgfc is clearly wrong.

it is dependent on ambient air temp! Humid air will rise and fall depends on the temp, and I'm gona throw in a guess that his will be falling, bc he is likely at room temp 20C.. if he had it at like 25C it would rise and disaciociate with the air. Humid air will always fall at 20C.

Explain your lack of understanding of how the sgfc works

I like the idea OP.... Good call on the one tub thing... That amount of perlite is perfect for one tub... I really like the stacked cakes also... I look forward to an update.

A properly filled SGFC is always going to be several degrees warmer than the room it's in. The warmer air in the sgfc is ensuring a current forms which draws the cooler air in from the bottom. As it warms it rises and wicks the moisture off the perlite into the chamber.

I agree but maybe I'm not getting my point across, the humid air rises in the sgfc. Is this not correct

Yes the humid air rises.

Relative to the temp you speak of, your correct.

I apologize if I was not concise enough. I was speaking in terms of the conditions in the chamber.

i heard someone talking about stacking cakes the otehr day, do you always do this with yours, Silly? do you think you get better flushes this way? does the bottom suffer at all from water logging or anything?
EDIT - Woops, didtn see there was another page.. and the "other thread" i read this about stacking in, was this thread bahaha.. so, sorry, never mind. =p

Hahaha, well believe it or not this is actually my first grow. I stacked them and would like to think that it is doing better. Although I can't say for sure because this is basically my first growing experience, I think it is performing quite well. They look pretty darn healthy besides the few that may be aborts, and before may not have had enough of a bottom layer of perlite for the little fruits of nature to grow to their fullest potential. If anyone would like to validate after the flush and compare feel free, but if given the right conditions to fruit, stacking vs non stacking probably wouldn't make too much of a difference.

yeah, i was justing thinking abotu this last night, and you oculd make sure to have a pretty decent layer of verm between the two ccakes, and it shouldnt make much of a difference either way, that way. the only thing i would really be worried about is the top cake toppling over from the weight of it's fruits. hell, i have had three cakes, now, topple over on their side from the weight of it's mushrooms, so i had to harvest a few hours earlier than i wanted to on 2 of the cakes.. i mean it wass a perfecct time to harvest, but i was wanting the caps to open a tad bit more, for prints. but it was ok.. but yeah, thats what i would worry abotu if i stacked.
maybe you could stick something down the center of the bottom one, and then stick the top on on top of it, and impale it =p idk
ill be jusst making a bigger SGFC, instead of any stacking, though haha.
