Monotub vs Shotgun Fruiting Chamber
Growers often ask which setup is better. Here’s the breakdown:
- Shotgun Fruiting Chambers are good for small grows but require frequent misting and manual air exchange.
- Monotubs offer better humidity retention, less maintenance, and higher yields – ideal for species like oyster, shiitake, and other gourmet mushrooms.
