For my first grow I've decided that I'm going to try the unmodified tub method that I've been reading more and more about recently. It seems to be very easy and relatively high yielding. I inoculated my grain bags last week and I'm just waiting for them to fully colonize, then I'll mix it in with my bulk substrate (coco coir/vermiculite) in my 60L/64qt sterilite tub.
I won't be modifying the tub at all. No holes or polyfil or anything. I plan to leave the lid on until the substrate is fully colonized and then when its ready to fruit I'll open the lid and flip it over place it back on top of the tub with a small gap for fresh air exchange, expose the tub to light and begin misting a few times daily. I'll be closing the lid at night.
I'd like to hear if anybody has any experience with this particular method, and the pros/cons of this vs. A regular mono-tub. I'm also not sure if I should use a casing layer on top of my substrate. Any advice is appreciated!
