Ok, any suggestions of like non aluminum trays to use for a tent? Sorry if this is a stupid questions. I’m just trying to figure out what people usually use when there growing in a tent and they’re not doing cakes.

Use black plastic trays or clear, they're readily available.
KnateKing89 - I grow in many ways from modified to unmodified to bags, none of them require fanning regardless how much you debate it.
My current grows are all 60L unmodified tubs stacked 5 high with the lids flipped. More than enough fae, last tat tub produced 2300g wet first flush.

I think Y'all got me wrong. When I cult I rarely fan by hand the tubs are easy enough to dial in. I am saying there are instances where fanning by hand could help such as the example above. When passive FAE is just not enough because of an obvious mistake on my part. When I was making 12 bricks of coir at a time in the same tote and didn't distribute the water good enough and 1 tub out of 10 was a hair too wet.. instead of just letting it go and getting a sub-par flush I would fan by hand to increase evaporation to insure I corrected the moisture content and it yielded as much as the others. This argument started because I told the OP to keep doing what he was doing and the few times he was fanning by hand wouldn't hurt the grow and only help it as long as it wasn't excessive. A dialed in tub with correct Field Capacity sub is always going to be preferable over fanning by hand of course. Fanning 20 tubs by hand multiple times a day would suck, but I stand by what I said the more fresh air you can give while maintaining RH the better the pinset and healthier the over all grow.

fanning by hand to balance out overly wet substrate ?

Fanning by hand to reduce the giant beads of water on top of the barely over hydrated substrate. Did you look at the pictures of what I am talking about?
