Co2 Exchange for Tub?

The substrate would be completely covering sections (figure 3 & 4) 73,74 & 83 84. On the sides it would come a little over the (figures 2 & 5) 33 & 66 spaces. Figure 1 is the Bottom of the tub.
Would the Ideal spot for Coolmist entrance be at p22 & s22 or p22 & s11 or at n72 & n81?
Where would the Co2 Vents go for a tub with 10/11in substrate depth? On the Bottom of the Tub how would you go about preventing substrate moistoir loss, preventin contams, & keeping the mass inside the tub without crumbling out before colinizing? Would a platic screen work for this?Would the vent holes be covered until pinning cycle is reached meaning the substrate would be colonized so I wouldnt have to worry about it falling through Holes?
How large Would the Vent holes be on bottom? Would there be any vent holes above substrate & how large would these be?
Sorry about so many questions but I'm very curious & want to succeed.

Yeah well my head exploded too but I dont think you need to be so intricate with your design.
Just get a rubbermaid container that is solid in color, cut 3 inch diameter holes on two sides and fill with polyfill. Fan a few times a day, and mist when needed, You'llprobbably get better flushes like that rather than setting up acool mist. Your humidity would get way too high during the fruiting phase.
The moist substrate throughout the box is enough to keep your humidity where it needs to be.

During the colonizeing of the substrate Co2 is a good thing but when you fruit the more oxygen exchange you have the prettier the shrooms are. I have 8 succesfull casings under my belt but only in the square pie tins. I have used straw, worm casting, finch seed, & 50/50+ succesfully to prepare me for this jump. Now I would like to move on to bigger casings using straw & cow dung . As I'm a newbie to bulk. I do not understand all the steps but I have a coolmist that kicks ass. If I needed to lower the humidity output I have 9ft of extra tubing no being used. 1. Couldn't I just up the length of the hose going into the tank to obtain the satisfactory humidity level?
2. During the growth stage co2 Build up would be a good thing?
3. When begining to fruit the holes on the oxygen would give me a larger flush? 4. I noticed when I switched to a coolmist from airpumps the shrooms would grow taller & prettier. Wouldn't holes on the bottom of the tub help Accomplish this & keep the mycelium more Healthy?
