Nice. I'm planning on setting this up as well. If we don't get any responses to this post, lets start journal threads and document the experiments as best we can - Anyone joining in, post journal links in this thread please?I just need to source the spores I want and I’ll update when I’m getting it set up
I use 2 of these types of coolers (my designs are more evolved) to dump cool humidity into the shop, and tent, and then to lower humidity in the tent, I just vent the shop humidity. It is a bit of a juggling act at times, but made it possible to get a summer crop with my setup. You might find this works better than a humidifier.It’s dry here in Tulsa usually and I just spray the tent for now to keep the humidity up.

If your scrubbing your tents air with a filter, the air circulates too fast for co2 to do anything. Just gonna suck it out of the tent with the other stinky air. Same concept as those co2 mushroom bags at the hydro store. Bigger rip off that bottled nutesSo, as I was watching this short video on monotub mushroom growing:
... it seems like it would sit perfectly on a 4x4 tent, and because mushrooms create co2 as they grow, it could easily be vented into the tent and provide a constant flow of co2.
Has anyone tried this yet? How did it go?

Nice! I had considered a few ideas on setting this up in a 4x4x7 tent... in that chunk of upper space, but the tent is going to get too cramped.I've been thinking about doing using a 3 compartment tent. My only concern is the effect spores might have on my plants, I'm not sure if the fungus could effect the plants negatively. I'm definitely subscribing, and hopefully I'll have some info to contribute!
Luckily I'm in CO,I need all of the humidity Lol! Have you found a reputable source for spores?Nice! I had considered a few ideas on setting this up in a 4x4x7 tent... in that chunk of upper space, but the tent is going to get too cramped.
The approach I am currently favoring is to put the tub outside, on top of the tent. I'm thinking this will give me room to setup 3-4 more tubs if one isn't enough.
I also considered creating a "lung tub" as well, but that's feeling a bit Goldbergish.
Mushroom spores won't hurt anything (in soil.. not sure about hydro setups, but I doubt they would corrupt the grow solutions), however, if VPD is not dialed in molds and disease start manifesting at 0.5 kPa (and below)... and exhaust from these monotub will drive up tent humidity.
Arizona here, and added humidity is needed here as well.Luckily I'm in CO,I need all of the humidity Lol! Have you found a reputable source for spores?
