mini martha

Here the newest addition to my fruiting chambers, i had a regular Martha but it didn't fit in my closet and i got tired of looking at it in my room, so i sold everything hooked up and ready to go to a friend. and now I'm taking another stab at it, this time i bought a off brand Martha from mijers for 14 dollars and left out one if the side braces on each side to make it two foot shorter so it would fit in my closet under my shelf's, I'm still in the building part though and i have some cakes ready to case and was wondering if you guys think just a cool mist or an ultrasonic alone run this chamber since its fairly smaller or do you think its essential to have both on it as well.

Man..that is the worst photo..does your camera have any focus I get the idea though. What is this Martha growing teq i've seen people talking about..is it that closet bag thing..then you put the casing inside the plastic chamber?

there portable plastic closets, they give you a large area that easy to sterilize and keep that way also the plastic act like a green house and holds in the moisture to keep it at a steady rh. if anyone know if one of the two will work let me know or if i must buy both let me know that too, im trying to get by on one but if it not possible then let me know.

the only way to find out is to try it, it's not going to hurt you to throw a cool mist in there and see if it holds the RH ran 24/7. I believe it will, X may think it wont. Point is, this is an expierimenting process, so try it and find out. You might be able to get away with it, you might not. Use cool mist alone before adding the ultra sonic.

oh its fine im just saying that it is impossible for one of us to tell you the answer. The only way is to try it and it's not like when you try it and it doesnt work it's a failure, just a simple adding another humidifier. GOOD LUCK and i hope it works with just the cool mist.

Use a cool mist on the outside of the chamber (and preferably closet) pumped in..you'll need to mist but it will work fine for casings. Cakes I would add an ultrosonic. An ultrasonic alone wouldnt be advisable as it would create a humidity fluctuation from when its on and when off (on all the time would be too much, its to much for my closet on low thats a few dozen times the size of your mini martha). Even with perilite in the bottom you'll need to mist because even in 99%rh your cakes/casings will slowly dry out. IMO foggers and ultrasonics are the only thing that takes care of not misting.

thanks scat, i guess i may as well hook up a ultra sonic to then to run a few minutes every hour or every couple hours ill have to tweak it for the different size in the martha, but yes it is only for casings. also with the coolmist hooked up i shouldnt have to do any fea should i, or is that only when you have both the cool mist and ultrasonic hooked up?

ya... even with a cool mist 24/7 you will need to mist a couple times a day! its so worth the 30 bucks from kmart to get a ultrasonic and then every other day or so you just add some water....fully automated is the only way!
