I've heard you should be misting and fanning as much as every hour. How do people do this with a job? I work 8 hours a day.

Maybe if you're growing in open air. But for pf tek, 3 times a day is decent. 1 when you get up , 1 right when you get home from work, one when you go to bed.
Monotubs are set and forget.

Yeah keep in mind OP that there are many different ways to grow mushrooms. With my monotubs I mist in the morning and that's it, and it's not that big of a deal if its left for days without any maintenance, it just performs better with a little extra moisture on the surface and the added FAE.

Oh, that's true. Forgot to mention I'm using a SGFC with cakes. So 3 time as a day is good? Well, that works for me

Idk what kind of FC you got there but A SGFC is basically automated you can leave it completely alone for days, but ideally you mist 1-3 times a day depending on if it needs a misting at all A monotub is completely automated if built correct

when i used to mist 3 times/day it was actually too much misting for me. especially when the pins get to about an inch big, you want to cut back on the amount you mist each time by about half.

Fanning doesn't really do much either.
