    Question Holes in Tubs for Racks?

    Hi again, another n00b question

    Im planing to make a small rack after I move to the new place, and I was just wondering if Holes in tubs are still realy needed for the tubs since they will be open in the top without the lids in the rack.

    I live in south florida and the humidity is pretty high. Anyone around here with any input please?

    Thanks!

    This would prlly come down to more of a personal opnion type deal. In my case i'd still put holes just not as many i dont have a rack yet but i use tubs and i get very nice humidity and heat! ( I live in Reno, Nv) very unpredictible weather! one day its sunny and warm the next its snowing!

    I used to put holes in, but found that it's much easier to keep humidity up when I don't. They get plenty air from the small gap at the top.
