i'm not sure i understand what you mean. i thought the purpose of a mono tub is for the sub to do it's own thing? it should just fruit when it's ready and by the looks of it, your ready.

oh, sorry. i forgot you covered the holes to help it colonize, right?

hey if your getting some pins i'd say give em' some air. go for it. how many days has it been? 7-8?

17 days!!!!!! I just put the polyfil back in. I'm thinking.... fuc it. I'll fruit and if anything goes bad... I'll ditch. There is at least 8 pins and 2 knots in there. It's my first mono and I know I already made a few foe pars and I'll be starting my second this week so we'll see.

So at 24 days.... I've fully fruited this mono. I have a bunch of very thin pins. The first pin has actually fallen over. Hope all turns out well. Any signs of contam and I will just toss it.


Comments?

Picked some of the flush this morning. Here are the first 10 or so shrooms. I'm waiting on the other veils to break....


I got a bunch of little guys.... around 2" or so. Will these mature further? How long in your opinion? Should I just pick them when the rest are ready just to finish the flush or wait?

Hell yeah man looks like its looking up for you after all.  Im in the middle of my first cake runs, I really just want to do a mono tub though.  I'll have 12 1/2 pints of B+, 12 Burmas, and 12 Golden Teachers.  Would you recommend I take one of the strains and use them for a monotub after I colonize my jars?  Or will I not have enough?

I used about 7 pint jars of BRF in this mono. It's both Z-Strain and Golden Teacher. It did take a long time to colonize. I have everything logged in my journal. I'll be using WBS for my next mono's but if you want more and larger fruits... I'd say set up a mono sooner than later. Lot's of support here, that's for sure.

I put 10 holes in my mono but only actually use 8 with poly. (taped over the others)I would cover all the holes you make until it's colonized. Then lightly pack the holes with poly when it's ready to fruit. Took almost 20 days to fully be ready to fruit.

Best of luck which ever way you go.

All of the mushies you posted previously will mature further. It's very noticeable when a pin aborts, it will the same size. Don't worry about those unless they begin to rot (Caps turn green) Otherwise pick em after your flush.

Good luck on the grow! Hope you get some more pins!

:super: congradulations but, i just realized you said there were 2 diff. strains. i didn't look back at the previous posts, and there was just another thread about this, you spawned the 2 strains to 2 diff. tubs, right? if you mixed them then that was probobly your long colonization problem. just a quick comment. i'll re-read later.:flowerchild:

here's the other thread incase your interested

Re: My first Monotub/Bulk project - 1st Flush dry weight [Re: artizen]
    #10299125 - 05/06/09 08:04 PM (14 years, 10 months ago)

2 strains to one tub and I'd say your correct that adding the 2 different strains definitely did effect colonization times. The thin fruits really filled in pretty well. Picked the last of them yesterday.
Missing cap is the print I'm making.

Just got done drying the rest of the flush.... Grand total this flush (dry) =


Thanks again for the support and I'll be back to post the next flush in this same thread. To hydrate I'm just pouring in some brita filter water. Allowing to soak for about 4 hours. Then draining the rest. Sound right?

i dunk in tap water (city water) for 24hrs fully submerged. i use coir/verm/coffee. i holds a lot of water so i don't drain it, next to nothing drips out. some people place under gently running tap water for like 4 - 6hrs.

I must have read the post wrong. I'll do exactly as you then. How submerged are we talking? like an inch? Thanks for the help again mang.

fully submerged, thats all that matters, do it for 4-6 hours, then let drain, make sure it stays together.

all my subs are flipped out of the container onto the lid (i.e. sterilite shoe box) when they go into the GH. after harvest, they go back in the same box, filled with water. they float, so you put some mason jar rings or something on top and snap the lid on, the rings (or whatever) keep it pushed down so it is completely submerged.

:goodluck:

I notice on the pictures above the veils broke.  Now when the veils break, the mushrooms spores drop ya?  I've been told from several people (none of them grew mushrooms), that when you buy them you look for unbroken veils because it equals stronger effects after you swallow em.  Is this a seller myth, or is there truth to it?

Optimal time to harvest is just after the veils break. I picked some just before they broke because I didn't want to have to pick them over three days or whatever. I've NEVER heard anything about unopened veils = better potency. I takes some time for the spores to drop after the veils break though. It's not like a balloon or anything.

Yo way to pull it through, looks like you got a good end result.

Did you case your substrate after colonization? I have a couple tubs of grain spawn and coir substrate and its getting about that time where I could case it or just fruit the bitches
