ok i already posted on here about his but here it is. WBS colonized with Mazatapec MS. Spawned to coir. I just wonder, why WHENEVER i mess around with coir, it gets almost a dry look to it. The primrdia nerd lookin dots always turn brown and never grow. They abort before they can even abort. Is thi spossible, maybe not enougt FAE? too low RH i just wnt this first attemot to turn out to be a good one. 4 holes total on bottom of tub 1/2, to and inch above the top of the sub. Two on the shorter sides higher up. Colonized in 11 days, i have a ceiling fan on high. Everything sound right? should i fan or mist?

Looks like more FAE is needed. I would change from the 1/2" holes to 1.5-2" holes and kill the fan. All of my tubs have 2" holes lightly packed with polyfil, with a total of 8 holes: 4 at substrate level, and 4 just below the lid, all evenly distributed around the tub.
good luck

Yes, kooliad is right. go with more holes, not larger holes. Either way man, a monotub is an imperfect science. You'll get fruits EVEN if you fuck up almost all of the parameters. Next time you can fine tune what went wrong to try and maximize yields.

No. No, man. Shit, no man. I believe you'd get your ass kicked sayin' somethin' like that man.

I just uncovered the other two top holes and reduced the poly fill to about half of what was I'n each hole. Should be better now

yw, there are so many varieties in hole size and amounts of holes. all of which can and will work in the given situation. just find what works for you. i'm trying out some tubs with 1/2" holes and no polyfil. the first run did good but the fae was a bit low and needed fanned and misted too often for my liking. it was a 56 qt tub, with 6 holes on each long side (3x2) and 4 holes on the shorter sides (2x2). i've added more holes and can't wait to see the outcome next run. good luck!

Yea my holes are about 1" to 1.5. 4 on bottom and 4 on top. What would happen if I put one directly I'n the middle of the lid? Seems like that would help the rest of the holes

cant hurt anything. in the past, i've used 1" holes with success; i had 4 holes in each side, so i guess twice the amount you have. don't worry about drilling holes in the tub while there's substrate in it either, just be careful not to disturb it.

i ditched my crap ceiling fan and i have a box fan on low about 6 feet away blowing indirectly at it, now i can see the polyfill moving a little tab bit. Its pretty much blowing t the wall but is pushing air arund the tub.

lol, yeah mutants are probley from my lack of fae in the beggining.
can anyone answer me this now. how come my fruits are always so short, my tub is filled with tons of little mushies, but some are matured almost and some are not, but thy are all short. mybe two-3 inches if that for the mature and only an inch or two for the developing ones.
i always see fictures of people wit 5 inch, 4 inch or even bigger fruis but i never get tis, mine always end up small and thick

lol it read just fine.
i've never had small fruits and i've almost always grew monotubs, with little to no fanning, no fan running in the room, just let em sit and watch. in a 12" H tub and 4" sub, lots of times the caps are touching to lid. people say that lack of FAE causes the mushroom to grow longer, the logic, from what i've read, is they are searching for fresh air. could be a combination of the above and genetics.
