Grow area setup w/pics to help new growers

Well I updated my setup
Basically I added a Hepa Filter which is seen on the left, and a cool mist ultrasonic humidifier on top of the boxes. On the left covered in black is my incubator and on the right is my fruiting chamber, the hose that goes from the humidifier to the chamber is from a vacuum cleaner. It fit perfecttly. next to the humidifeir I have 2 air pumps that are connected to an air stone in the fruting chamber, that helps hold the humidity stable after I use the humidifier for like 10 mins every 4 hours. hope this helps new people Just wanted to show anyone who is new what everything looks like setup.

You need to cut that hose down. Water is going to collect in the bottom of the hose. Where it 'droops'.
Good luck

What is the make/model on your hepa filter and humidifier? I'm considering a similar setup but slightly different. Where does the tube connect to on the humidifier?

No offense at all I think your set up works but I think it's too much ... if you're using casings you dont really need extra humidity and for air exchange holes stuffed with polyfill works great... maybe a fan once a day helps too ... rubbermaids/polyfill/colonized substrate/casing and water is all people need i think..
>bear with me im rolling my ass off on a few hits of E hahahah 10 years ago you didn't need a few hits and it wasn't E it was MDMA ... I love how people waste thier time with garbage drugs these days..

I've cased cakes / rye grain with minimal effort. Slack-jawed techniques followed by a bag-over-the-casing sprayed with water terrarrium. I've also had success with just spraying the fruiting chamber 1-2x a day as needed.

yeah but if I didnt do all these mods I would have nothing else better to do then stare all day..... I have no life......
Well I tripped out last night, took a nap and when I just woke up I noticed my first PINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im so happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you everyone! I couldnt have done it without you.
to answer some questions above..
The humidifier is a kennmore ultrasonic humidifier
The hepa unit is a lab hepa unit I got on ebay, no name brand, custom manufactured for some lab.
I needed the humidifier, Misting was sealing my casings off.. so I needed a finer mist.... the humidifier does that.. plus now I really never have to open the chamber up, my air exchange is more then taken care of. Where Im at I have trouble maintaining humidity and temps, but since Ive made the mods everything has become alot more stable.
I also thought about cutting the hose due to water collection... amazingly though I have checked the hose and water does not pool up at the bottom of the loop, I dont know why but It just dosent, just normal amounts of condensation is all.
anyways Im still trippin and really am having trouble typing
