My Martha
    #5955180 - 08/11/06 10:23 PM (17 years, 5 months ago)

My Martha is a tall one and I have an ultrasonic cool mist that runs 30 minutes every 2.5 hours.  I have a drain that goes in there to catch the water.  My humidity is usually 95% to 98% of cakes.  What is the best way to bring fresh air into the system?

Thanks :smile:

I'm no expert, but shouldn't your cool mist be bringing in fresh air?

yeah, ditch the ultrasonic and just run a coolmist 24/7. that should cover fae and humidity.

then again, if youre putting cakes in a martha, you might need both to get that humidity up to the 90s.

I have one too, they are made by sunbeam (usually i know mine is)

For my FC I just have it run for a min every 12 hours (20 gal tub) and it works fine for me for FAE and humidity / moisture content.

You should be fine with it running like it is now

everyone has to have a different setup based on the environment they live in and casing vs cakes.

use a big fishtank pump or 2 thats enough for fae just bump up the time your ultrasonic runs if the humidity drops.

I have one humidifier that is an ultrasonic cool mist.  I am not sure I just run 30 min every 2.5 and they have been good.  My one cake I tripped around (1 half pint cake) gave me 10 big ones.  I think it was because I gave it a glowstick and told them all thank you for the trip :smile:  same size cake that flushed after that I did not talk to.  It only gave me two...  I have like 80 half pint cakes and 4 rectangle cakes with 10 half pints per cake.  It is cool :smile:

I have finally found a hobby I like doing :smile:

Peace

You can increase your head stash if you cased instead of did cakes.

Cakes are meant more for the  just a few for the small growers. If you going to grow 10+ cakes (in your case like 80?) you might as well just case them

I would also consider poo, but your on the road to a great hobby :smile:

i would recommend you do what i do - mainly because it is very cheap and very easy and gets pretty good results.

get a large rubbermaid style container (48 litre/12 gallon) put 1 inch of perlite in, add a little bit of water. put lid on rubbermaid, fan twice a day (even with casings) and get lots of shrooms!

if you prefer automated FC's then you have a good setup.

just my 2 cents

If he's already got a Martha and an ultrasonic, why would he go back to tubs? Better that time/money be invested in going to casings as babo911 suggested.

Back to the original question, add a coolmist.

If you really want to go crazy and enjoy making stuff, then agar's bucket tek is totally cool. I just built mine and it rocks.

What are the benifits of poo?  I was just wondering.  I use the BRF method as of now.
