Thoughts on the complete monotub from Northspore?
    #26681595 - 05/19/20 05:43 PM (3 years, 8 months ago)

Hey all,

Thinking about getting ready for my first monotubs having done a few runs of pf tek in the past and came across this video on YouTube from Northspore.

It looks pretty neat, albeit maybe a little overkill considering the much easier / fool proof teks here on the forums.

I tried to look around and see if there were any automated versions on Shroomery, but didn't really come up with much other than people pointing back to basic monotubs that are essentially automated if they're dialed in.

Anyone have thoughts? FWIW, I was looking to do BOD's unmodified tek for some APE's, but am open to other suggestions/teks as well.

Thanks!

All tubs are automated pretty much.

Even a pre made one would take some dialing in.

I just put micropore tape over the holes and they are dialed in perfectly. Or if you use polyfill, its just removing or adding more polyfill. "Dialing in" isn't some precise science and is pretty easy tbh. Just adjust the covering until your substrate doesn't dry out. Definitely not worth spending $20 or whatever on a fogger that will perform like shit.

"Automated" setups- especially an automated kit setup- very often seems to be automated failure

I laughed so intensely at this that my Tarantulas took cover.
This is so true! Most kits will leave you unsatisfied, they usually cost more than just buying items singularly, and are sometimes badly designed with crappy instructions.

I'd just go with a basic monotub and grab a sterilite container from your local walmart.
