2$ Double tub w/pics

for everyone that thinks they have to spend 100$s of dollars on kits and all that.. heres a 2$ kit that you can make just by going to walmart. well heres the story.. a few weeks ago i started a new batch of jars becuase i figured that my casings i had then would be all done by the time the jars were since they were on there 4th flush.. well 1 wasnt, and i didnt have room for it in my single tub setup. so i made this.. its two 4qt containers (.99$) at wal-mart with 8 1/2" holes filled w/ pollyfill.

and 5 days later, this is what i have..

keep in mind this is the 5th flush off of this casing. for anyone wondering its TEX strain from ralphster (thanks ralph for the hookup). and my floro light is sitting ontop of the tub thats why its so bright in the 2nd set of pics.
just wanted to post and let ppl know you dont need a 55 gallon container to grow. i average about 18-28g dry for first 2-3 flushes off this size casing. this lil setup has impressed the hell out of me, and i will deffently be using it more often now due to limited space.
hope this helps out some ppl or helps spring some new ideas, i know the single/double tub isnt a "new" idea and im not trying to seem like im starting anything new.. just passing on one of my experiments w/ a mini double tub .
l8r, will

ya i have a single tub setup like that for my casings, but it was full w/ my new casings so i had to go w/ this lil setup. i couldnt bring myself to throw it away when it was still good.

I've been using 12qt DT's with success for awhile. I usually do this when I just don't need alot of shrooms or I'm experimenting with a strain.
Hey Will, what did you case with? It looks like straight verm.

I know right!? You can make a pretty elaborate FC for fucking PEANUTS! People think they gotta make it all complicated and expensive and shit...

While I don't particularly care for the small size, it's true, you don't need an elaborate setup for a successful grow. I routinely use mono and double tubs and have had great success. I personally do not recommend a tub any smaller than 19 quart unless, as FooManShroom eluded to, you are only looking for a small yield.
