Here’s an update on how it’s going. (I also have a few in the dehydrator.)

I want to try shoeboxes with a few of my cakes that are colonizing now! Oy…

Looks like they are too dry. Tape 1/2 the holes and mist, if I were you.

Thanks!!
I’ve read on here that taping up holes will make my SGFC not work right. But I’ll add some water to the vermiculite on top and bottom.

if a water tub with zero holes works your sgfc will be ok with a few less

I am right behind you with my cakes in the box. I went with a water method, but filled the bottom with perlite to serve as a floor (I had a bunch in the shed) and adjust the lid to just not have condensation by mid day. They get a morning misting, and I close the lid at night up up the humidity. I see it as simulating the day cycle and gives me enough interaction to mitigate my impatience.
Lots of methods don't modify the tub. I like the unmodified tubs because I like to be lazy. I don't know if that will bite me or not. Time will tell.
Also I think something to keep in mind is the season. Your tub tuning will be different season to season as your heater kicks on and the air dries you will want less holes than the spring/summer when humidity might be higher.

Awesome! Good luck with those babies!
This time around, I’m following the RR pf tek. He seems to do all right! 😆
And I’m in SE Florida, so it’s still mid-80s here!
So far I’ve gotten about 6 grams dry. There are tons of pins - we’ll see how they do!
Super excited about trying a shoebox next!

This is so much fun!!!
These APEs aren’t very APE-y. I have some from one of the sponsored vendors colonizing that might look better.

Cool! APEs have variation in appearance, just like all cubes. Looking good. Adding more wet perlite also helps with preventing SGFC dry-out.

Thank you both!
If this is even close to as wonderful as the APE I had in my first experience, it’ll be perfect! I also have KSS, Purple Mystic, TAT, and Treasure Coast in here and more APE, Costa Rica, and B+ colonizing. Go big or….haha.
And great idea - I’ve got tons more perlite.

They look amazing! Mine are still colonising, but getting close. I reckon another week or so before I get to birth them - with any luck it's going to be a magical Xmas
