GT won't fruit. Should I throw into monotub?
    #11484911 -

So in my FC (Basically a modified Martha) I have PE and GT growing together (12 tupperware tubs each, 1 Qt). Using rye berries as sub and cased with 50/50 coir/verm (will be using peat moss next, instead). At the beginning my temps were a bit too high (low 80s) but that has since been fixed and now the temp and RH are perfect and there is a LOT of FAE. My PE have been growing great the whole time but the GT have pinned in just a couple of the tubs and I had to harvest them cuz they started to wilt (right word?). They are completely colonized and just sitting there doing nothing. The GT have started to form those gross looking metabolites and are not growing at all. My PE are starting to crash and will need to be tossed soon.
I'm going to be growing just PE from now on in the FC as they have been the best trip I've ever had, and I'm not looking to change it up right now. I would still like to fruit the GT, but I want them out of my way in the FC so I can grow PE exclusively in there. Can I just take the colonized tubs/cakes/whatever they would be called now and throw them into a monotub? I would case with peat/verm, and probably use some more coir when I transfer everything over. Would this work ok? Anything I should make sure to do or any tips on this? I live in AZ, so the RH in the room is pretty low (about 27% or so). Will this be a problem in a monotub? Should I just drill a bit smaller holes to compensate or something?
Thanks for any help. It kinda pisses me off that the PE have done so well and the GT are not really doing anything. In case anyone is wondering, both colonized just fine prior to crumbling and casing. So far no contams or any other problems of the sort.

yuo can but there is contams on the outside of the cakes alredy if they were in the FC so it is risky but can be done

Hmmm, good point. I really just want these things out of my way so i can continue growing my PE that are doing so well with some more room. Any other ideas I could try to get these out of my FC? If it comes down to it and I do decide to try the monotub (I can always use it to grow more PE or some crazy hybrid mutant things I have later) should I treat the cakes as spawn and crumble them into coir or just try and fruit them as big cakes?

do not spawn if you do the risk of contam is higher since there is contams on the outside of the cake. i would just make a big one you will like the PEU i do just PE APE and PEU now with some weard ons i cloned over and over till it is just the wairdist thing i have seen but looks kool and is from the PE so it is as stong

Awesome; thanks for the help. I'll just take the big cakes and throw em in there. Basically just set it up like a shotgun (w/ perlite and such) but in a monotub setup and let it go?
And those shrooms in the pic are cloned PEU? Weird looking as hell. lol I can't wait to grow my mutants that I printed.

PE that looks like a regular shroom. Put a couple of these stems in with some other strange PE (two caps, little pins growing out of a smaller mushroom, etc) and 1.5g in tea glued me to the couch cuz the body high was so strong.
