Heres my new Fruiting Chamber, just completed it today. Its a 55 gallon rubbermaid with a plexi-glass viewing window. I have a terarrium fishpump humidifier hooked up to it. I also added computer fans inside to circulate the c02 layer from building up. So instead of taking the lid off, i run the fishpump 24/7 and let the fan move the air around.
 and
 Theres an 18 inch ruler sitting on it for scale; its back near the wall.

I would still manually vent it as often as you can. I've attempted a very similar setup and had horrible results because I felt like I didn't need to vent it with the pump running constantly.
Well done though. It looks well put together.

LoL Thanks for the comments guys. This is probley about my 8th grow so im fairly decent at it now. I just have never really posted my grows on here. I dont have a digi, so I gotta borrow one to take pics. My last grow was on Straw and I never vented and I got a good grow. I was actully thinking about using my airbed pump to fan it. It pumps out alot of air really quick, its like a blower. I was going to make a polyfill filter over the inlet and blow that into the FC. I like to open it as little as possible. Im a bit parinoid about clean lol. But hey, ive never fucked up a batch yet so thats pretty good I think. Anyways im rambling, Thanks guys. keep the comments comming.

Just curious, how do you have those DC fans set up? Adapter -w- a timer? And what frequency/duration are you running them? Also, what CFM?
Sorry for the detailed request, but I've considered using PC fans several times. It would be nice to find a way to ditch the old cool mist.

I just use some old 12v transformer i had laying around.I have a 120 MM fan with the potentiomiter hooked to it so the speed is variable. Im not sure what the flow is on it, I was planing on just keeping it on low all the time. The FC has some holes that are on the top of the handles, its hard to explain but it makes it so the holes are recessed, thats why I went with the 55 gallon (besides its huge fruting area, and a sturdy lid) I will probley recored this next grow, so youll be able to see how the fans work. Ill take more detailed pictures soon.
Peace

Zeph, im going to do bulk like last time. basicly i dont use trays, i just fill thw whole bottom of that tub with pasturized straw, mix in a few colonized jars, cover it, then let it do its thing. When the straw is all coverd I case it. Last time I cased with basicly the 50/50 / staments tek, but this time im going to use CoCo Coir. I like the fact that with the CoCo the PH is damn near balanced. Its a pain in the ass to mix up all that peat. lol

Yeah, Ive only grown Golden Teachers and Alacabenze (sp?). Ive only ever bought one syringe, my buddy gave me his Alacabenze's because he decided he couldn't grow (hes pretty dumb). Heres the thing with the straw, if you pasteurized it and get enough mycelium in it off the bat, you have 13 days to get it colonizing. Basically the mycelium can fight off anything before that time. But if it takes longer than 13 days, your fucked. But my jars colonize in less than a week with LC. I use a modified Alien Substrate recipe. The guy who wrote that thing was kinda stupid. But anyway Peace

I want to hook up pc fans to my FC as well... Where did you get an old 12v tranformer from? It would be nice if someone could write up a tek on how to wire up fans since I dont have any electrical experience really and haven't seen one.

Just like a wall wart. You know like one that you plug into a cell phone or somthing along those lines. You could probley get one at GoodWill. Its easy as hell to wire.
