Growing Chamber
    #8015826 - 02/13/08 12:06 AM (15 years, 11 months ago)

I'm using a rubber maid storage bin with perlite. the temp has stayed between 75-78 degrees, and the humidity is at 95%. I drilled holes all over for air exchange. What i was wondering is whether it will be enough to let the CO2 out or should I still fan once a day? Also, are the holes a bad idea??

Air it out two or three times a day

Fan as much as you can. You can even put a little fan blowing toward your FC. FAE is a good thing, just make sure it doesnt cause a drop in humidity.

a few big ones filled with poly fill about 1/2" up from the top of your substrate will work.

**option-

add a computer fan to the side of the tub towards the top.
find a 12v dc power source, the power pack off your answering machine or any other small device that has a power pack will work fine, tie the wires together and tape them, plug your pack into a timer switch and forget about it.

How about attaching a cool mist humidifier to it? Put it on a timer. That helps keep humidity up and gives FAE. With the right timer it's almost automated. Although it still wouldn't hurt to mist/ fan once or twice a day. The more fresh air the better.

Once those mushrooms start really growing they will suck up every bit of humidity they can.

Micropore tape works well on the holes you drilled as well.

So everyone always talks about using a computer fan to push air into the chamber. Wouldn't it be more beneficial to have the fan near the bottom, pushing air (CO2) out of the FC and pulling fresh air in. I feel like this would be a better way to create FAE without losing humidity or drying out your casing from air being blow at it.

Just my 2 cents.
