FC question

Well I am approaching the time to prep my FC for my PF cakes. My FC is 6-7 inches high and 2-3 feet long with a width of 1-1.5 feet wide. How thick of layer of perlight should I use for humidity?

I'd recommend at least an inch but anymore and your going to run into clearance problems once they fruit. If at all possible get one with more height. GL

Yeah. You would definately profit from a $3 investment on a new FC.

A couple inches higher, like 10"+ total. Remember the larger the FC the longer it will take for CO2 concentrations to buildup in excess.

All you have to get is a cheap Rubbermaid container. Works like a charm.
