Honestly this is such a better alternative to classic sgfc.
The classic design is prone to drying out. We see people with blue cakes in sgcf's all the time.
Monos don't need holes on the bottom for air currents. You could argue that there is some heat produced by the mycelium that's helping things but there is water on the walls long before the myc starts to recover. This should be the standard design for fruiting cakes.

I'll make one and try some cakes in it. I only need to mist once maybe twice a day in my SGFC. But it would be nice if I could leave for a day or 2 and not worry about who was misting em.

How many cakes do you put in it? How big is the tote?

Shotguns really work better when you have them filled with substrate (like you do in the picture)
The more sub you pack in the more they hold their humidity and behave more like a mono.
When you only habe a couple of cakes you have to really mist a lot. As i said earlier, we see people with dried out blue cakes im shotguns all the time. I sincerely believe this tek will outperform a standard sgfc especially in situations where there are only a few cakes.

I have a bunch of half pint cakes that will be done in the next few days. I can see how they perform in it.

This was definitely a thing people were doing back when I joined the board. I guess before monotub's completely took over. I've done the perlite in the bottom of a regular mono, too, and used with trays.

Came here trough a link in elasticaltiger's signature. This looks good. I have been thinking about starting a Panaeolus bisporus grow and I will need a new fruiting chamber. This looks like a solid option.

Sweet. I've had to put mine on hold as I'm in Florida for 2 weeks. So I'll have to try with a fresh batch when I'm back.
