This is the first mono I've done. And first attempt at anything bulk at all. It's a 64qt mono of PE. Couple pics for ya. Let me know what you think. Looks better in person tho.


Hard to see all the pins in the pics but I'm happy so far.

It's Damions coir tek, which worked great. I did add a half cup of gypsum to that water before hand. I used only used 4 qts of wbs spawn. I have 2 more I just did up with 5. Hoping for faster colonization times.

Yeah it is, I had no idea how fast they'd start popping up! I've been ingesting as much knowledge as humanly possible for the past few months and just went straight to grain and monotubs.

As long as you use common sense, & follow the teks, bulk growing isn't too hard. Plus you get a great yield. Keep up the good growing.

Well I'm good in the common sense area. This has become a fascination and hobby. Research is all I've done. All the good people here at the shroomery have taught it all.

Wow that is great! That is a hell of a lot of pins. Did you clone or use multi-spore?

IGetTight, it looks GREAT. Personally, this is a about the time that I'd start fanning the hell out of it with the lid. But please keep us posted! And in the future consider a doing a tub without the black garbage bag. I find that all the condensation that drips down and pools at the bottom helps provide the moisture for a killer first flush. A great pin set can easily underperform when substrate moisture is lacking. Just keep that in mind. Anyway congrats on very good looking first ever mono.

Dudester, funny that you say that cause the two i just spawned a couple days ago have no liner. They're colonizing now. So I have an updated pic I just took.

Im real stoked to get a set like this first go. But one question. Unfortunately I'm supposed to go out of town tomorrow evening till sunday morning. When do you think harvest time will be?

anywhere from 48 hours to 80 hours i would say. You will probably be fine leaving and coming back but they will have dropped their spores and created a mess. I myself don't mind but up to you. If you can i would go back or have someone else check on them friday night or sat.
Best of luck and great looking tubs guys!

They're PE so he doesn't really have to worry too much about spores. Leaving them till Sunday is fine

Thats what I was hoping to hear, they're shooting up, but they're still very little. I'll be back early that morning.

If you can have someone fan em once a day the FAE is really good for their growth but you can leave em an come back. If the stems are fuzzy when you come back its a lack of FAE

I can imagine, they've grow so much while I sleep. My FAE is set up pretty well in there, so we'll see.
