How total makes his monotubs!(With Pictures!) * 5
    #14649819 - 06/21/11 05:56 PM (12 years, 7 months ago)

After doing quite abit of them, one tends to find tricks/tips to make things easier, So here is the routine that i follow to make my monotubs...

Step #1
Prep your monotub with proper holes...
I use (2) 1.5" holes on each of the 2 long sides, and (1) 1.5" hole by each handle...


Step #2
Cut a contractor black trash bag in half, making 2 pieces...
Lay one ontop of one bin, and one ontop of another...


Step #3
I cut the very bottom of a bin out, and made a mixing sleeve...:super:
Insert the sleeve, forcing the trash bag down inside the bin...


Step #4
Dump your sub in...
I personally use 1 brick of coir and 2qts vermiculite, and i pasteurize with Damion5050's Bucket Tek
I've found coir to be pretty much fail proof, allowing even sloppy cultivators a contam free sub!:super:

(its generally a good move to lift up on the sleeve at this point, allowing the sub to pull down the trash bag)

Step #5
Dump your spawn in and mix well...
With my colonization times and contam rates of my curent iso low, im choosing to do 4qts spawn per brick coir/monotub...
This low spawn rate, and works for me... :shrug:

This is where the sleeve comes in real handy! :super:
It allows you to mix your sub and your spawn both fast and even...
Even makes for a nice level for getting it even...


Step #6
Remove Sleeve, Cut excess Trash Bag, and stuff with polyfill...


I've found this a fast and efficient way for even one person to spawn a bunch of tubs!
I'll add some more notes on this here in abit...

NICE! I've never thought about the sleeve idea... I think that works great for the smaller bins, but the 64 QT tubs i have are too big for the 30 gal trash bags... Might have to start getting smaller tubs for my monos...

:toast: Innovation beats the shit out of procrastination. I use those same "clever store" bins.:thumbup: they are Sweeeet. I am pretty sure that they have the best surface area to total interior space ratio of any tub i have ever seen, and i have Shopped Around.
Have one Uncut one that i use to mix bulk with spawn, then i dump it into the prepped tub with the trashbag liner.
Like your "sleeve" concept, total. Less air exposure than what i am doing, although i have not seen a lot of contamination on bulk substrates, provided that they are not too wet. Will try, looks slick.
Nice post in general, Shrooms to ya'.

PE6 looks like a typical cube and redspore is an awesome grow but there isnt a defining characteristic you will be able to notice unless you print them

I was intending to give PE6 a run for potency... :shrug:
As far as the PFRS, my current B+ iso has hallow stipes, so im looking for something more "meatier"...
As far as my client(s), they take whatever i feed them... :super:
Its YOU guys that want the defining features, and are tired of my B+ prints!

Just trying to bring a little more to my homefield forum...THE MARKETPLACE!
