well i really like the set up always wanted to do something like this. i just like to see my casings everyday./ And i think that the less time you open ur fc... the better. you got something to catch excess water in the bottom?

the bottom chamber has 4 PVC pipes coming into it to supply humid air, the 2 intakes at the very bottom (not visible in these pics) are used to collect excess condensation. i just shove a wad of paper towels or whatever into the two bottom ones. that way there is a total of 6 intake pipes with two of the intake pipes at the bottom being used to collect excess condensation. seems to work out well so far, virtually no water collection at the bottom

Any setup with adequate conditions can produce results. But this setup looks very very promising...
I agree big time, you can grow mushrooms in a soda can if you need to.
Still looks real nice though, definitely my type of set up, I like everything clean and all in one spot. Make sure you get your money's worth out of it though.

I'd say your should definitely post a tek for this one. Great setup, but I do have one question; what would you say is the volume of your cabinet? I recently bought the same humidifier and my FC looks to be about the size of what you got there. It would help me out on making any necessary alterations.

I'm not too sure the "volume" of it but it holds 8 shoe box sized 5.6 quart tubs. the cool mist by itself didnt work too great, the fogger and air pump helped power it up a lot but i dont have a lot of faith in that setup, i think the cool mist will likely die in a matter of months. when that time comes I'll come up with a solution that doesnt require the cool mist but until then it works pretty well

Question tho: Lemme see if i have this right. The Fogger is pumping in the vaporized water, the humidifier is pumping in fresh air and the watter from the fogger, the air pump is pumping fresh air into the whole unit? Also, are the containers you are using see-thru? Would it be better to use solid containers? Im trying to understand this thing, so please, don't be offended by the criticism. Does it humidify the room it is in too? It doesn't look seamless, which is good right?

yeah, ive finally decided to write this tek, i'm thinking of calling it "Rich Man's Pod" due to it's obnoxious price tag 
to answer your question, the air pump pumps in air into the cool mist, the fogger is inside the cool mist, the cool mist is connected to the FC which pumps very humid air into the FC constantly, the FC is not air tight, it allows the air that is pumped in to flow directly through and out of the FC, this helps to prevent stale air and contams
the containers in there are just trays being colonized, when they are ready to fruit i will take the tops off, the pictures should be much more exciting when there are 8 trays fruiting inside it doesnt really matter if the trays are clear or not, i guess it might be better if they werent so you dont get side pinning.
i've had a lot of requests to right a tek on this so I will start doing that this week, hopefully i can have it done and posted this weekend.
thanks again for all the compliments!

I'm excited now! I have been waiting for a good tek to come across to start up again. I designed something similar, but never got it going. You sir, are inspirational. -ty

I hope you're not running that humidifying system while you're waiting for that to colonize. There's really no point.
