I haven't posted anything in a while.
This morning the developing tub looked nice so I clicked a couple of pictures.

Hey guys.
Horizon Spawn ... "dread locks rasta ...."
MegaGoomba ... Well civilized MS does pretty well ..
just me .... Howz't brah !? ... just finished my second batch of agar ... cuz my lab guy wen split !
Got out the still air box and did some work.

I cut off one of the best looking fruits that was in a big cluster and took two tissue samples from its inner stipe and put them on agar.

here's the aftermath of the surgery ...

these guys really blue when bruised.

good reports on the potency.

answers to just me's questions:
yep .. that tub looks clean and white .. really, it's a regular tub .. the morning light makes it look bright and clean.
I added a ph balanced casing layer to the two previous tubs (to hold off a trichoderma problem that has recently plagued me ... I fruit outside). The ph of 8.5 got me through the first flush .. so it was a success.
subsequent flushes didn't happen. the substrate was torn up at harvest and trichoderma appeared two days after harvest .. just like always.
The last two tubs (this tub is the first of the two) were done without a casing layer .. also fruited outside .. and this one had no problems .. the next tub is knotting up also with no problems ... so I guess my trichoderma jinx is dormant for a while.
here's a shot of the tub 24 hrs. later:

over done. and harvest:

these tubs have a lot of volume for the floor area ... kind of impressive that all those fruits (MS) came off that cropping surface.

its the seasons out there mang! i swear it
go from 100% success to fuck everything back to 100 back to what the fuck
just for overall use of the substrate, i dont like casing.
one of these days unc, we'll figure out the true anti contamination secrets 
meant to say earlier, those PB are super blues man! theyre either marble grey, or BLUE when dried

AMAZING! Very, very nice Uncle Rico. If I could offer some advice to help the yield though..... try a tub with different dimensions. You could use a 64qt tub ( 26 1/2 x 16 x 12 1/4). That would give you better surface area and yield you more fruits per tub. Give it a try!

Awesome advice.
Thank you, shroomy1
edit: I suppose I should also use a clear tub. with the exception of the polyfill, the gray tubs are pretty incognito ...

5 days later ... I'll update this.
The yield on the tub was 6 zips dry.
The 2nd uncased tub is coming along.

don't know if it will yield as much as the other one .. never know with MS.
The tissue clones I put on agar are growing well.
 shot from the bottom
 side view
Going to do some work tonight ... put some of that clone culture in WBS and some other stuff.
That's what's happening here.
