Terrarium for babies

I'm getting ready to set up my terrarium for my cakes. I have 10 of them and was wondering if using a complete transparent rubbermaid is a bad idea. Most people say to have a transparent top so the shroomies grow upward, but wouldn't it be benificial to have the whole cake exposed to the light so shrooms grow from all angles?

Also, I've been doing alot of reading on casings but probably won't do it this run. My question is can you put cakes and casings together in the same terrarium. Casings usually need a lower humidity than cakes, right?

Lastly, after I dunk, then roll my cakes in verm, do I put them in the terrarium?

It doesn't really matter for cakes where light comes from.  They will grow all crazy if you allow light to come in from all angles.  They will be more uniform if you have the light coming from one direction.  Up to you.

Casings do need a lower humidity during the fruiting period.  High humidity is good to initiate pinning though.  Many just put their casings in a terrarium with high humidity and still have good results.

Yes, dunk and roll then place in terrarium.  You will be glad you did.  :grin:

It doesn't matter too much if the rubbermaid tub is transparent as long as the most light is coming through the top...put a really low wattage nightlight over the top and they will grow straight.

I've put casings and cakes together in the same terrarium without any problems.

Yes after you dunk and roll your cakes you put them in the terrarium. Just put a piece of tinfoil underneath them if you plan on putting them directly on top of the perlite.
