I dub when I remember to do it in time.I use the dub tub because I like the "terrarium" look of it when I come into my grow space.
The grocery bag works just as good though.(just can't see them  )
If you forget and leave the lid on,not a prob with these shoeboxes,they'll still fruit!
  
Nice thread!

Yeah actually the shoebox had the lid and latch on and was fruiting outside, gave me a lot of good shrooms, got ample FAE even without any holes.

I only make dubtubs when theres nothing else but hey. At least 1) they work well 2) theyre easy to make.
But holy shit, taking them apart to harvest, maybe water, taping it back together. Goddammn so annoying lol
But when you dont have a good latched shoebox, and you need to spawn, nothing wrong with a dubtub
Say huhwhat? If you have the right shoeboxes, you just put a second one upside down on top. They are annoying to move, and dont stack that way, but you only need the top while they're tall enough they dont fit.
Easier than a grocery bag imo

This tek is just showing you how to utilize what's around you and most of all use common sense. Nothing wrong with that.

I can't find common sense on Amazon, what's your preferred source? 
There's more than one way to skin a cat, as they say- more than one way to do tubs, and it doesn't look like there's a "right way" so much as individual preferred methods.
If it works, it works.

That's exactly what I'm getting at. If you can use a bag you can use anything. Use your head.

Quick question. I've got 10 half pint pf tek jars that I inoculated back around 6/8, 7 of the jars are sitting right at 95%,the other 3 were slower growing so they are around 80%.If I'm planning to spawn 8 to shoeboxes using this tek and 2 to grain jars, is there any reason really to wait for the 100% colonization?
Probably a stupid question, but it is mostly because I have time this weekend to do this and probably won't during the week next week.

Yep... dollar stores are generally a classic example of ripping off poor people who don't have the sense to realize it

May depend on were you live, I pay 89 cents at the dollar store (dollar general) per shoe box, walmart charges 1.34 and I have to drive 45 miles. 
Guess I'll just say, compare prices. Hardware stores do have some nice odd ball sized tubs and containers I don't see at other places though.

So I've been stepping away from the grocery bag lid approach after ending up with a tub that unexpectedly contammed during the fruiting process and I didn't see it until harvest when I took the bag off. Now I use large stretchable food covers (14-18" sizes work well for shoeboxes). You can order 30 large covers for $8 off Amazon or you can buy a variety pack at WallyWorld for $2...issue is it only comes with 3 large covers.
Really recommend getting these. Poke some holes in it and you got yourself a snug-fitting lid that doesn't get knocked off like a dubbed shoebox.
Grocery bags are free (or $0.05 if you live somewhere like I do), though, so that is an advantage.....

im basically one of those people who learned from here in like 2013 and ive been sticking with "full proper pasteurization" of coir (and its never let me down as far as bulk sub goes) but i decided to give the bucket tek another shot (bodhi's writeup). It came out a nice very dark brown. As suggested i used it after about 24 hours since the pour (1 650g brick + a quart of verm and a handful of gyp). Spawn is recovering now, i made two tubs. One is already getting its "white" back (the grains). Its not even been a full 24hrs since i spawned em tho. Will be very grateful if it works tho and ill use this method rather than pasteurization if so 
(Was so much less laborous)
PS: as far as a cheap ass lid, you can use seran (sp?) wrap. Just that if youre gonna put it on airtight, make sure the FAE is coming in

I would not use an air tight lid. Even during colonization i get better results if i just do "fruiting conditions" immediately. Literally 1-2 days faster colonization and time to pinning.
Sometimes with shoeboxes im harvesting in 14-16 days after spawning

The only 30 pack I see has half medium and half large. Some have a blue ring instead of that red one.
