Hi guys,
first of all thanks for shrromery and all the members for helping me to get this far. I just need your opinion on how things look in my double tubs. It's Ecuador, WBS spawned to hpoo without any casing. Many of them look short and fat that's what concern me the most. I'm affraid that I will get a lot of aborts.. I have a small fan running 24/7 in my closet not pointing to my tubs. Do you thing the shrooms are getting enough FAE in there? Well here are some pics, please post any comments and concern... Thanks you all... BTW this is my 2nd grow considering my first grow was a big failure...

I thought low FAE caused skinny shrooms? Looks like Low humidity but I don't see how since you have water droplets all over the walls. don't know man but good luck.

do you think I should shut off the fan once in a while? or put it on a timer?

No. I'm not fanning them since it's a double tub tek. I believe that I don't even have to open it until harvest time. I follow wronguy's tek with 4 polyfill holes for air exchange..
here's a link to the tek: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php?Cat=0&Board=boxes&Number=4323984&page=0&fpart=1

i read here that it's not necessary to case with mono / double tubs. Some say that non cased substrate will suffer in the 2nd and 3rd flush, but some say that you can just dunk it to regain substrate moisture. This is my second grow ever that's why I decided not to case this one. I'm going to case my next batch. BTW mine is a double tub, not a mono tub..

On my monitor, those heads look black. If so, they've already aborted. I'm not a believer in the mono/double tub teks at all. Massive amounts of air exchange are what you want in the fruiting stage. You can't get that through a few polyfill stuffed holes. RR

you can still use them, i say hand fan them every day and just mist the sides to keep the RH up. The casing layer will provide a good amount of moisture and if you keep the walls damp then you should be able to keep it constant. This way you can use the tubs, produce a healhier flush, and enjoy a larger yield. It'll just take a bit more attention then normal.

Would you think it could be a good idea to make "perlite balcony" on the side of the tub.
You could then fan by opening the tub and you wont have to worry about humidity. I was think maybe aluminium foil glued to make a "basket" of perlite.<
was that ever done??

I did something like this with my first grow and it worked really good. I had a small 12V fan circulating the air inside the tub as well.
