PE Mono/Shotgun Hybrid (pics)

Well here it is, first off I would like to thank Doc_T for his mini mono hybrid idea and RR for giving Doc some of his ideas as well.
This is three quarts inoculated using MS PE spawned to nine quarts of coir, verm, coffee, and gypsum. I have done monos before but never one of these little guys and I also have never been able to upload any images to the Shroomery. So here it is guys, not the best pics I know but the results should speak for themselves.
 
Here is a pic of the final harvest of the first flush, over four ounces dry. Not to bad.

A little over four ounces dry, and I owe it all to my friends here on the Shroomery. Like I said, not my first mono but one of my more successful ones especially for a mini mono which I have never tried before. I will try and upload some more pictures later if I can.

The tub is like 35 quarts or something like that. May be a bit big for a mini mono but yeah, I only made one tub. I have another going right now but it is a bit behind this one. The lid on these tubs didn't seal very well so I ended up putting micropore tape on many of the holes and removing it as the pins matured. I will be sure to buy tubs with a tight fitting lid next time so I don't have to waste time and effort with the tape.

Tape? You drilled 500 holes and then taped over them?

Still- can't argue with results.

I didn't drill that many holes and the micropore tape I have is very wide and I drilled the holes in perfect lines so I ended up just running long strips down the lines. Wasn't as hard as you might expect. I could also tell the there was too much FAE because the sub was drying out very quickly, everytime I would come back to mist it it was bone dry.

That dry? You must have great airflow. Was it in a garage or something?

Excellent PE tub.
Thank you very much for sharing it.
I have had poor results misting PE monotubs. The fruits get black spots on them and they get blotchy. Sounds like you didn't have those problems.
Nice job.
What was the source of your PE MS ?

I may have exaggerated a bit about the dryness, but I mean the lid had like a one cm gap on all sides and I didn't check the fit when I bought it. I will always be sure to do so next time. I appreciate all the responses and kind words. I received the PE print from a member on here and it looked nothing like your typical PE print, large and dark like a big flat cap of some other strain but it did indeed fruit like typical PE. You will notice in the pic I did over mist a bit cause some of the caps definitely have dark spots on them.

 NICE ONE....... Keep it up. Those shotgun/mini tub hybrids are very effective. The first time I tried a tub I accidental fucked up and did one of those without even know what I had done. my only problem was not enough holes. looks like you got it down though. BTW nice to be able to finally scope out your work. Ya, it's been a minute since we talked, i just got done making 3 tubs last week and doing 3 more today, been so busy with work. I'll keep you posted as well and keep them pics coming. CYANARA

Well let me think about it a second and break it down to you. I went with 60% coir, 30% verm, and 10% gypsum by volume. So here is a real easy way to do it, first decide how many quarts of bulk sub you are making, in this case nine, then multiply the quarts by four to get cups. Then multiply the total number of cups, 36 in this case, by the percentages like 36 multiplied by 0.6 to get your sixty percent coir or 36 multiplied by 0.3 to get your verm and so on.
So here is the recipe
21 1/2 cups coir 11 cups verm 3 1/2 cups gypsum and I threw in a few handfulls of coffee because I din't have much, but the general rule of thumb is 5% by volume.
Also thanks a lot Cy, good to hear from you and glad to finally show you one of my grows.

Will do Doc. I will be here for years trying to pass along the information I have learned and next time I get a flush like this and it isn't PE, I will be holding a contest. Pe has been kinda hard to print for me.
