Monotub help?
    #13039813 - 08/12/10 01:04 AM (14 years, 5 months ago)

So I made some 18 gallon tubs, with 4X, 1 inch holes on both long sides and spawned to coffee,coir, verm, a little gypsum and glacial rock dust(very small ammount on the later).
I put polyfill in the holes about 4 days ago, and set a fan on..
The strain is a cloned B+.
So here is the problem, I have an oscolating fan blowing on it from about 10 feet on the lowest setting possible, and the tub nearest to it is pulling away from the sides, also there are knotts forming, but fruits are already maturing.. But very few.'Is this my first flush or is it ramping up?
Should I be worried at all?

get rid of the fan, your blowing all your rH out of your tub. 

use your poly to adjust your FAE and rH, how loose/tight you pack it adjusts how much FAE is let in and how much rH is let out. :mushroom2:

So how tight do you want the poly fill?
Is this common with cloned straines.. also this strain fuited extensivly on the perti dish... I realy need some solid imput because I don't want to fuck these tubs up.... the following three tubs I mixed the spawn in insted of layering it and put a solid layer on top befor top dressing with 1.5 inches of coir, those tubs seem to be doing alot better.

:shrug: I never could make polyfil work in monotubs, that's why I started the hybrid MSG's in the first place.

But it'll be loose enough to allow sufficient FAE while helping to retain sufficient RH.
Whatever that works out to be in your environment.

Dude it depends a lot on your environment...what works for a mono for you may not be what works at all for 50 people after you. Even though it should be "set and forget" you gotta keep an eye on it.  RH must stay high but FAE can't be completely sacrificed.  IMO, the bare minimum required to maintain RH is optimal cuz u will be allowing as much FAE as possible without sacrificing RH.
