Well i had half a syringe left after my last desaster had some nasty orange mold growing so i decided to try agian. this time it worked great those cambodians really fly through a jar. i was looking into options for a fruiting chamber other than a big rubbermaid and some perlite. a local trip to wallyworld scored me some 7" x 7" plastic containers with flip up lids and it hit me i had an old tropicare reptile humidifier. so i got 6 containers some fish tank tubing a bunch of t connectors and wala i now have 6 cakes in thier individual containers running 95% humidity with no spraying required. its looking pretty good too i got one cake thats up to 21 pins.

I did something like that about a year ago
bunch of little tubs with 2 cakes in each,
except I used perlite
the only thing that pissed me off was that I had to open each one and fan like 3 times a day

i did use perlite for the base just to keep humidity as high as it could go. i really dont have to open these at all im running 2 50gal fish tank air pumps so its got a really nice stream of air comming out into each container. i just had to watch the placement of the tubing cause it was getting so much condensation that its constantly dripping into the containers. i hooked it up 2days ago and i already used half of the water in the canister. my only concern is that the tubs arent really big enough for anything over 3" tall.

Nice! Definitely the most creative fruiting set up I've seen.
