fruiting chamber
    #5478704 - 04/04/06 10:53 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

Hey guys,
I bought one of those martha stewart-like setups $30. Its about 5'x2.2'x1.5x. Yesterday I started prepping this badboy. Luckily it fits perfectly in my closet and there is a shelf directly above it. I put my coolmist (Kaz style i think...pretty old but it works) on the shelf, which is above the greenhouse, and then cut three lengths of tubing. I bought tubing that is quite thick and not very bendable...that was dumb. So I used duct tabe to attach a funnel to the cool mist..lots and lots of duct tape. I think it will take some time for the moisture to really affect it. Next I attached the tubing to the funnel (again lots of duct tape). This tube leads to a biway into two other tubes - one going to the roof of the greenhouse and the other going above the 3rd shelf (4 shelves total...I am counting from the bottom up). I test ran it yesterday without anything in it and it got very humid. I think its good to go.

Here's a view of the top of my greenhouse with the coolmist above it. Also there's a light bulb clamp next to it.



Here's the biway:



View behind the greenhouse:



View of ghetto tube insertment (taken from inside the greenhouse):



Picture of the soon to be undone from excessive moisture coolmist with tube:








QUESTIONS:
1) when I do get some cash i would like to make it more aesthically pleasing...meaning I want to get rid of duct tape. You guys got some ideas on adhesives or silicon plates? Ideas on PVC piping?

2) When I do start fruiting my casings, will the presence of the casings bring up the humidity a considerable amount?

This is something else I have planned for the future. Nice and simple. A stack of clear bins beside the marth...perlite in each w/ half water and bubbler stones lining the bottoms of each bin. Would this be good for casings? Can I use a bubble stone in perlite?
On the size of the bins...measuring from the perlite to the roof of the bin...how much space should I leave for growth. I would like to fit as many as possible.
