Monotub Fruiting Chamber with Perlite

Product Description
$47.95
Maximum quantity available reached.

A Monotub is a fruiting chamber for growing a few (but not all) species of mushroom inside. A Monotub is a plastic tub that has been modified with holes in a way that makes it an appropriate vessel for the fruiting stage of mushroom growing.

Comes with 3 bags of Perlite

The fruit chamber works in the following way:

Mycelium is spawned into a pre-prepared bulk substrate, mixed and placed into the Monotub (with the holes taped up preventing fresh air exchange).
Once the Mycelium 100% colonizes the substrate the tape is removed from the holes in the tub and filled with polyfill or similar.
The air around the substrate is slightly heated due to the thermogenics (heat generation) of the mycelium as it consumes the substrate.
This heated air rises and exits out the top holes in the tub.
This results in fresh cooler air being pulled through the holes in the bottom of the tub.
The polyfill in the holes closer to the substrate is packed tightly whilst the polyfill in the higher holes are packed looser. This is done to prevent the substrate from drying out due to too much fresh air exchange.
The fresh air provided to the mushrooms initiates a pinning response and the mushrooms begin fruiting.
