Bulk monotub shroom grow.

Flo, reduce moistur content or increase fresh air flow, or both, I see soggy caps....
Glad you went with a caseing rather then cakes.

Yo ANC speaking of moister content since my poo was so wet that I had to squeeze every hand full out I did not bother to mist the sides of the tub. Do you think that was a good call?

 

[estesj]

No Way

I don't feel like going back and looking but I had a whole batch of Wikidzonz where every shroom was at least 50g each and most were 10inches+ and stems over an inch thick...I got 3oz dry off 2 flushes and then another oz on the 3rd...

 

[AlterdImage777]

estes, that is the best way to do it. I squeeze my poo and or coir out by hand, it is the best way to get it perfect every time...

I just tubed it up with the horse poo mix layers and covered it up with blankets and stuck in the closet to build up co2 on friday so I got like 10 more days til I give em fresh air and light. I had my jars incubating in the same closet but in dark colored tubs with a blanket and 2 clamp lights to get the temps up to 83. Now I got my clear fruiting tubs in the same closet wrapped in a blanket but I turned the lights off because I'm not sure if the light will get through the blanket and get a little light in the clear tubs but now my closet temp is down to 70 at night and 74 in the day. Do you think I should turn my heating lamps back on?

i personally think its fine to incubate at room temp, it may go a tiny bit slower but theres also less chance of contams.

Thanks FL. it's like 73 or 74 inside the tubs I would guess judging by my ambient temps so I thought that would be fine. It's just still been getting down in the high 50's and low 60's at night in north FL. this year with this long ass winter we had.

Love the ghettobator lool +1. What type of lights you using 6500k bulbs?

 

[estesj]

just 2 60 watt incandescent bulbs and it gets the temp from 70f to 80f. Now that they are in clear tubs I tuned the lights off because I'm not sure that even being covered with a blanket that no light will seep in. Now the temps are 70 at night and around 73 in the day making the inside of the fruiting tubs around 75f. I hope to see pinning iv a little less than 2 weeks.

 

[timeismoney1]

Sweet. Im using a space heater to warm mine lol

 

[estesj]

I thought about doing that same thing but I was scared of a fire starting in the middle of the night. Are you using qt sized jars?

 

[timeismoney1]

Nah half pint.

 

[estesj]

My qt jars took a month at 82f so yours should be much faster than that.

 

[timeismoney1]

I couldnt imagine a qt size jar!! How much cc did you use for one jar?

 

[estesj]

2 cc in each one. I used 6 jars in each tub with my horse poo mix. I still have 2 colonized jars that I'm going to do a grain to grain tek to colonize 15 or 20 more jars sometime this week.

 

[timeismoney1]

Dayum. That be alot off mulah.

Yo ANC just wanted to bump this question up just in case you did not read through the thread. Also do you think 72 to 75f is an o.k temp to fruit because I turned my lights off in the closet.

 

[ANC]

Yeah just keep her closed, you'll probably see some water pooling when you take it out eventualy, just make some holes in the bottom for drainage then, its fine in the mean time.
