If all this was true we would all be suffocating in our own CO2 emissions lol

OP is considering buoyancy as if CO2 were immiscible with air and neglects diffusion.

Grain jars need to be turned upside down twice a day to drain CO2.

I also fan my unmodified monotubs with a heap filtered leaf blower. Takes only a fraction of the time compared to manual fanning and even gets rid of the CO2 that gets stuck in the corners.

C02 diffuses into the air, especially in a water tub with so much evaporation happening to keep currents moving around the tub.

It would take a lot more than the mushrooms produce, with zero air movement,  to cause any issues


And like somebody said before, it wouldnโ€™t be such a popular method if it didnโ€™t work.

Come on now, CO2 just diffuses. Life wouldn't be possible if this didn't occur.

Outside the wind blows the CO2 away and the trees use it for photosynthesis. A tub is an almost closed system.
Why do monotubs and shotgun tubs have holes on the sides just above the substrate. To release CO2 right? thats in the books. CO2 prevents pinning. I know I have to try and I will.

I live in Amsterdam. I can buy colonized grow kits over here. 50 euro. So I want a tub that gives picture perfect shrooms. All books say CO2 levels are important. So why are some of you being such dicks.
Im just asking a question.

Monotubs don't have holes in the sides and SGFCs are outdated.

Really really really helpful. Uhum! So as far as i know monotubs have six 2 inch holes 4 near the substrate surface and 2 near the lid. So why do you say they dont have holes?

And why is SGFC outdated?

Arenโ€™t you the engineer guy? Why do you think 300 holes in a tub is bad?

See, no holes.

And SGFCs are outdated because they are 30 years old and were extremely finicky to start with.

The holes are so air can blow through and cause evaporation, which is why you canโ€™t keep a Sgfc next to a wall.

There are two mechanisms of mass transport. One is convection and the other is diffusion. Why do you neglect diffusion?

No ones being a dick, its called sarcastic humor... Shroomery has a certain tone. CO2 doesnt build up in your tubs that way; because of science.

Do you think the rate of diffusion is enough to keep up with the respiration rate of a whole bunch of mushrooms?

This is the situation I would like to create:

The mushrooms I grow in shoeboxes tell me yes. How many mushrooms growths have you successfully accomplished?

Nature doesn't work with all or nothing assumptions. It is not a matter of CO2 being bad. It is a matter of whether the levels of CO2 are sufficiently high to prevent mushroom growth. What's the point of arguing endlessly about needing to get rid of CO2 when we see that mushrooms grow in tote boxes and shoe boxes without the need of convection currents to take away the built in CO2? The diffusion coefficient of CO2 is 16 mm2/s if you want to do calculations.
