GE/FAE Automated Monotub ventilation fan
    #26559922 - 03/26/20 07:50 PM (3 years, 9 months ago)

Hello!

I just recently purchased an automated monotub that controls humidity, temperature and it has a chamber ventilation fan.

I am in the consolidation period for my monotub and don't know how to deal with GE/FAE for the consolidation. With unautomated monotubs, you tape up the holes. Right now I am running the vent fan for 10 seconds every fifteen minutes. I don't know if that is too little or too much for consolidation. I do know it needs to build up CO2 but don't know how often to run the vent fan.

Also, when I take it out of consolidation, when it is time for fruiting, how long and how often should I run the vent fan for?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hey welcome. Can I point you to read this thread and then come back with questions after?

Monotubs are automated already.

Monotubs are far more automated than any automated setup I've seen anyone post here. Routine cleaning and filling a humidifier is more work than using a monotub to grow mushrooms

I bought a humidifier for the closed bedroom my tubs sit in. The central
air just dries everything so bad the rooms RH is like 27%

Better than mine in winter. Tubs don't really care about the room humidity. Besides a substrate has a gallon of water in it. Leave a cup of water out tell me how many days it takes to evaporate even a tenth of it out.

A cup of water has much less surface area thus less evaporation, if you pour it out in a tray, it will evaporate in a few hours. :laugh:

Fill a 66q tub with 4 quarts of water. Let me know when you're left with 3.5 after evaporation

Water on its own evaporates in a slower rate than in a substrate as it is porous and has more surface area. It still takes a while though
Sorry this conversation is pointless, you are right and I get your point :laugh:

I know the tubs don't really care but I've noticed the dry air really sucks
the moisture outta them. The room has an intake and a vent and they shrink
so damn fast. If set near either vent they'll shrivel right up more
than they should before even one flush comes off. If it doesn't help
then o-well I'll use it in my bedroom.

If I poured an 8 oz cup of water on a tray and left it in the room I dunno
If it'd even last a few hours. And the air is what circulates and keeps
the room at 70°F so closing off the vents isn't an option.

Tuning in for pics

OP did you build it or buy it?

I wouldn’t be surprised if someone’s selling “groundbreaking” automated monotub technology :lol:
