I get so much condensation when colonizing that I had to wipe down the sides and lid with paper towel or else it puddles all around the edges. Got three shoeboxes on the go,

Spawned on the 15 th and colonizing nicely

2 Of my shoeboxes have gone bacterial Was probably the coir prep. Even the resulting weak flush looks weak.
I'm gonna do the coir prep and the tek by the T and take notes for the next round.

Love me some shoe boxes. My last grow a few years back I pulled 4oz dry per box, using about 5 of them. I do put 2-3 of those 6q boxes in a large tote and pipe a tad bit of my coolmist in there, not much. Busted the light off a 50c thrift store lamp and attached it to the lid. Picked up 10 boxes at walmart for $7 and my large tote at $4.
GT a couple days ago, ready to be cased today.

Do I have to put them in a larger bin? Does anyone get away with NOT doing that?

Sweet, it will be way cheaper to go grab a few more 6qts for 94 cents each. In only going to have enough spawn for 3boxes. Being that 1 brick makes 4, I guess I will have to thin out the ratio a bit. Makes me nervous.

It will be OK. Just get enough water in it. They tend to dry a little faster ime

This thread has been alive for a suprisingly long period of time 
My first post was the APE shoebox in my signature. Now I'm giving ape a second go in even smaller shoe boxes.

These things might fit a single shoe each if you had small feet But I mean who's realistically packing shoes into clear plastic totes in the first place amirite?
APE MS 2 qts coir 1 cup verm 3 cups oat spawn
Both spawned on the 21st

nice shoeboxes everyone. This is one of my favorite threads in mush cult by far.
Here's round 2 of my GT shoeboxes after a bottom water. To keep the right amount of moisture i noticed i have to mist 3 times a day at least in my environment. No biggie.

I'm giving this a go, Spawned two on the 20th. And I've got two colonized grains jars that I need to do something with, was gonna try some g2g, but I found an extra 6qt sterilite around, so I figured ill just make another one! Seems like alot of folks are liking it pretty good. Good luck everybody!!!

Mine too, there's alot of good quotable material in this thread plus some straight up hilarious shit, For example.....Quote:
mushboy said: females do not like us growing mushrooms. because we place the mushrooms before them. and they will view the mushrooms as a physical manifestation of how much of a selfish, self absorbed asshole you are. and how you never really cared about her, but only about the mushrooms and fucking.(is she right?)
*smash break smash*
similar to a child breaking another childs favorite toy out of jealously or the misguided feelings. dump that bitch.
telling her she needs pyche help while you grow a psychedelic is also(in most peoples eyes) about as hypocritical as you can sound... to normal people.
I gotta good laugh out of that one, really stuck out to me cause its so relatable.
