oh shit every thing was deleted? humm..? ok well let me start over. I need a tub not sure how bIg it needs to be? I have 6, 1 pint jars. then I need perlite and I fill the tub with it about 4 inches? then I take the jar 100% col. and I dunk it in water with H2o2, how much? then I take it out and roll it in verm, and then place it on top of a lid? now I fan 3-4 times a day and I spray water with H202 on the sides of the tub? Could I just place the tub infront of my AC to gain 70-75 degrease? Or do I need the humidifier? Vicks ultra cool mist right? did I get the over view right? THANKS

you should get a tall container 12" to 15" tall.
you can get a regular rubbermaid and cut the lid out and put plexi glass over the hole. or you can get a clear rubbermaid with a clear lid...and have the light shine from above so that the fruits grow upwards...not sideways.
2" of perlite is plenty.
doesn't matter how much water you use to dunk your cakes. just dunk them in water for 12 to 24 hours. then roll them in moist verm.
then place them on something...doesn't have to be the lids. I hated using my lids cause they would get all rusty. so I would use a peice of Alum foil...or a plastic lid.
fan as many times as possible...or make a bubbler system.
you want your fruiting temps to be around 73 to 76 degrees F. you could put the fruiting chamber near a AC unit if you live in a hotter climate.

any tub will do as long as they will all fit with about 2-4" between cakes and is high enough so the mushrooms can grow up, and i would only put about 1-2" perlite on bottom and add enough water till its not pooled on the bottom. i dont think you have to put h2o2 in the water when u dunk them if u dont want to.. you only need to spry the sides of your tub if the humidity gets low, for cakes i belive you want around 90-99%. i wouldnt put the tub right infront of the A/C just somewere in the room were it will be cool, dont forget your gonna need a way for light to get to the mushies, if your using a clear tub then your mushrooms will grow all over the place instead of up becuase the lights comeing in from the sided of the container, i use a solid color or paint them black if there clear and cut some fo the lid off and put a plexy glass window in and calk/pop rivet it in place.. well there ya go theres my 2 cents worth:) hope it helps you some.. i tried cakes 2 times with no luck.. i whent to casings.. l8r

i would just soak the perlite in something and then drain it well before adding it to your tub. standing water is not a good thing to have, can grow some funky stuff in it. peace

yes
or you can drill holes, silicon the plexy glass and use screws to hold it down better.

For the plexi-glass top. All you have to do is wet the edges of the rubba made container, then stretch a peice of plastic wrap accross and pull tight (it will produce a very good seal). Then throw the plexi-glass top on and just let it sit. The only reason i use the plexi-glass is to hold my light up..
