WARNING: Do not place your air holes as high as they did in this video if you want healthy mushrooms. The bottom of your holes need to be almost level with the top of the substrate (substrate is the mixture your mushrooms grow on) but just slightly elevated above, so 1/2 to 3/4 inch elevation placement above substrate is perfect. Now you might be wondering how this is a problem since he can just raise the height of the substrate; actually he can’t because most strains grow pretty tall and he hasn’t left enough room. Now back to hole placement, the reason this is so important is because your mushrooms will be consuming oxygen (lighter gas) and be giving off carbon dioxide (heavier gas). If you want your shotgun terrarium to work the way it’s supposed to, then the holes need to be as close as comfortably possible to the top of the substrate where the carbon dioxide will be resting. This will allow the heavy gases (carbon dioxide) to automatically fall out of the holes (gravity) and allow lighter gases (oxygen) to replace itself in the container. This kind of terrarium allows gravity to do the work for you so that your mushrooms can breathe👌🏻
Well done 👏 This is one of the clearest explanations of how the gas exchange works, and I've heard alooooot of em
@@sapiomancer I really appreciate that
Thank u.know i dont trust anything this guy's telling me.
No they don’t this is also bs this warning is nothing but you wanting mf to do it your way your holes do not need to be even with the bottom holes one is for clearing co2 the other is to let heat out so wtf are u on about in this comment
With that being said, would you say that it is better to mount my computer fan to draw air in to the chamber, or to have it be exhaust?
Looks good, but here's the problem I find with these set-ups, and it's the humidifier. If you can manage humidity as a closed system, the same water cycles around. But when you introduce the humidifier you're pumping additional water into the system, which tends to build up and make everything soggy, even at low output and with a sensor. I'm thinking about making a false floor of corflute sheet for the bottom of my tubs, below which I'll put a thin layer of perlite to act as a sump to gather condensation as it runs down the inside walls. A few small holes in the tub, at the centre of the perlite layer, should allow the accumulated water to weep out beneath the substrate above, without exposing the system to drafts etc.
Alot of gadgets. Another way to grow mushrooms. Nice work
This is a good set up for those that cant mist/fan at least 3 times per day. If you work a 12 hr shift, you may miss out on care.
I really like this design
Thank you for this . . .
Your shirt is so 90s!!! Also you can buy a hydrometer / thermometer that connects wirelessly to your phone for only $10 on amazon
Awesome knowledge..thank you
Lmaoo everything in this video I s just way too much extra shit lol
Verry nice
Pero te faltó la temperatura 😜, aquí hace frío ¿que le pongo a esa fructificadora?
Reptile foggers don't generally have water filters ... There are foggers that use filter discs
Hey bro. How often do you think the humidifier runs? I don't wanna spend $50 on a humidifier gauge yet 😅 but I've got a timer
don't you need to replace filters after a certain amount of time?
Hey i got some blue and red led strip lights. Do you think they will be ok?
Do you have links to products?
nice robotub
Here is my method: Cut 2 holes like a still air box. Mount a low RPM fan over one of the holes. Fill the tub with 2" of water and place a $10 mist maker inside. Connect to a timer and your are all set. You can add a humidity gauge, but not necessary. It can also double as a still air box by removing the fan for arm hole.
It would be awesome to see it.
@Andy Lee please you help me build up one
And set your mushroom on what? Can't set the mushrooms directly in water like that.
@@mountainman4410 The high humidity air comes out of the second hole
@@mountainman4410 No he's saying you make a separate container and fill it with water and then use a fan/mister to connect to you fruiting chamber.
What light is that?
I set my humidity at 90% but it saying high humidity alert it went above 90% what do I do
Does mushrooms need light? Why do you have led on the lid?
What about getting fresh air into the chamber? Shouldn't the lid be removed and fresh air fanned in at regular intervals? Surely the micron filters don't allow enough fresh air exchange on their own?
The biggest problem I see with this, if you get trich or some other kind of contamination, you're going to have a hell of a time disassembling all of that, and not getting trich spores or whatever all over your grow area. It might behoove the grower to make some kind of disconnect for the hosing that allows them to detach it from the fogger without exposing the contents of the box to air in the room.
Also, instead of using a little reptile fogger, use an ultrasonic humidifier and rig up some attachments.
I'm a little skeptical about this because it seems like an easy way to overhydrate your mushrooms and make the substrate far too wet, while also inviting a lot of unfiltered moist air to into your FC to introduce contamination. Especially after you've been using that fogger/ humidifier for awhile, there's no way you're not introducing bacteria or mold into the tub.
Its kind of cold where I'm at so I was wondering if these devices heat the tub as well?
The lights provides some heat
Could use a closet or tent with heater and thermostat switch or a seed germination mat
Petsmart sells heaters for snake tanks that arent too expensive and stick to the bottom side or top of your tub bottom is best to me so it keeps your soil warm they hit about 70 to 80 degrees i think.
So much work..if you're new to this, you honestly don't need to do all this... just open the top a few times a day and use the top to push in fresh air that will push out the co2 at the bottom.. that's all you need to do..no holes needed
Not everyone can be home enough to be messing with this thing a "few" times a day. Some need the autonomy, because they aren't home to deal with it.
So one thing I keep noticing with these mono tub set ups is no one is using a heating mat after inoculation. Once I spawn to bulk substrate do I not need to use a heating pad anymore? Or is that job taken over by the humidifier?
You shouldn't be using a heating pad at all. You want to warm up the ambient air temperature, not the surface temperature.
A humidifier will actually cool it down, you don’t need a heating mat ever unless your temps are too cold depending on what fungi you’re growing
Hi what type of lights are good to use? For psycobine shrooms in a tub
You don't need any lights.
You can put microspore tape over the holes as an alternative to the filters.
Thank you for the suggestion!
thanks for tip! We'll look into it
There is no reason to filter the air at all while fruiting. Colonized substrate is resistant to contamination. All you need to worry about is 02 and H2O
@@thomasfaught4162 its not about the contams, its about keeping dust and other bigger particles out. you dont want dust mixed with water droplets.
@@debianstark2181 You can grow mushrooms in outdoor patches, or in an open bag on your counter. "Particles" are of no concern. The standard SGFC has hundreds of uncovered holes, and monotubs do involve polyfill or some other barrier to limit airflow but they are also opened and fanned every day. Your mushies can handle a bit of dust just like your plants and animals can
Q: the filters will they never need to be replaced with fresh new filters once fully used to start growing more.
After any and all flushed cakes
The filters are unecessary anyway. The inside of the tub is not a sterile environment nor does it need to be. Colonized substrate is resistant to contamination. Theres no reason to filter the air. I fruit them just by leaving the top slightly open.
I'm thinking of building something similar to this, but I want to use a spawn to bulk method. I think it would be difficult to harvest and then soak the substrate afterwards. Maybe a drainage hole in the bottom with some sort of plug? Any suggestions?
Exactly. Drill a small hole in the bottom and cover with packing or duct tape. After soak for 2nd flush, remove tape to drain, then replace tape and fruit again.
Ive seen some people use a plastic bag to prevent pinning, maybe you can use this to get the substrate out and soak it out of the box or drill holes? I dont know yet what would works better
DO NOT DRILL A HOLE IN THE BOTTOM OF YOUR TUB. After you harvest just soak the whole cake in the tub, dump everything out, let the cake sit on a rack until it stops dripping, dry out the tub, and slide it back in. Obviously take care not to split the cake apart, but if it does break, its ok. Just wedge it back together in the tub. It will still fruit ok
You sure that 8qt chamber
the side air holes are way to high. you will have this stems
Where is the automatic temperature controller?
I get my from an online store, they got shroom, psychedelic and microdosing products well refined, also ships to anywhere
He,s on Instagrams with the below handle

It'll be a lot easier to buy an indoor greenhouse, reptile humidifier with timer, led, you'll spend less than $90, and It'd have about 5 times more room!
Any links? Trying to find something like that
Is it just me or does he have the drill going the opposite way... Looks like it's going counter clockwise instead of clockwise and could be why he was having such a hard time with that hole saw -it should have torn right thru that plastic.
You actually get a cleaner cut that way without tearing, so I think it may be on purpose. But that drilling accuracy though 😂
just buy a greenhouse for 30 bucks off amazon
Hate to tell you this but Ruller is spelled with one L as in Ruler
Why don't you just put it near the window instead of the light?
This is way too much work for mushrooms. Light is not the main pinning trigger, so if you're going to use monotubs, the ambient light from the windows in your work room is more than sufficient for triggering the phototropic response (regular indoor lighting for a 12/12 on/off cycle is good as well for the response to kick in), but the micro-climate at the surface of the substrate (especially the humidity level and access to water) is the main pinning trigger (as well as fresh air exchange/FAE).
You also don't need to create holes with polyfill on the sides, just cracking the lid and flipping it - after the sub's colonized and the mycelium has consolidated - is all you need for FAE. You just have to fan your tubs 2 or 3 times a day depending on their size. I mean, let the market be free and the competition fair, the design here is a good one and if people have the money to spend, go crazy. But you can still get consistently great results from "keeping it simple," and just doing a basic monotub cropping technique in a Sterilite tub (or if using another brand, if it has a foam/rubber gasket under the lid, remove it).
Keep spawning culture!
That's all great if you have the time to be home and open the lid to fan several times a day. Some people work all day and don't have that luxury. Therefore it needs to be as autonomous as possible.
@@mountainman4410 You can just put the lid on loosely. Check out 90 second mycology if you don't believe me.
So much money, why??
Overkill...
Why? What’s the simplest cheapest method please? I wanna build a monotub but idk if I need all that tech. My room stays at 72 degrees
@@chris3117 first of all U don’t need all this tech. If u want to invest for this kind of tech buy a green house and grow like 8-10 cakes of shrooms, but for only one tube (cake) it’s a fucking overkill. If you only want to grow in one tub, drill some hole and put micro tape on it, spray some water on ur cake and wag with the top of ur tub fresh air in the tub for 5-6 times a day. That’s enough.
Sry for my bad English~
@@antonym2968 if I bought something to keep it warm is that recommend? And do you have a suggestion
@@antonym2968 thanks for the response and I understand everything u said good English lol. I’m thinking about a monotub or buying a little greenhouse that I can use some tech just so I’m certain having good grows.
@@chris3117 15-20Celsius should be fine, over 25Celsius Shrooms will grow slower. Watch some videos of home mycology on yt. He will tell u everything u need to know.
? Why not use super glue on the filters? The epoxy is nasty. Is this a one time deal, or will the same filters be used each grow? Don't do this to yourself or any other living organism.
Anyone think the fogged is a good idea in need something I can set like that as I work 7 on 7 off so I won’t be able to most manually my week away
It looks like this guy has no idea what hes doing and hes just reading a script. Major overkill.
Overkill, its a tub not a Martha greenhouse...
It’s a little bit of both ;-)
way over kill and wont produce better mushrooms.
