Weird flush
    #16205228 - 05/09/12 03:11 PM (12 years, 8 months ago)

Hallo

My monotub(popcorn+coir) started to pin a couple a days ago, but it mostly seem to grow/pin on the vertical sides and the edges on top. Why? This makes the flush extremely hard/impossible to harvest, and most of the mushroom stop growing because of little space. I forgot to put a plastic bag under the substrate, and my tub is see through. It gets indirect sunlight most of the day. I realize this isn't optimal.

Did I fuck it up since I forgot to block the light into the sides of the tub? There's alot of drops of water on the substrate as well, and the vertical sides seem dryer, might this be why it grows there?

A bit messy explained, but anyway, any help greatly appreciated!

Yeah you can tape the the bottom of the tub from the outside with electrical tape up to the substrate depth or cut down to size a black trash bag next time to prevent side pinning. Yeah it is most likely from light exposure to the sides of the substrate but you should also be seeing pins on top of your substrate. I recommend dabbing up a bit of the condensed water on substrate, fanning the tub a bit, some occasional misting, and lots of tlc :heart:

In my experience, when a cake,tub, or whatever don't fruit on the top and only on the sides and corners then you put it into fruiting too early. Or, there's some other reason, perhaps optimal air exchange near holes? Without pics it's anyone's guess.
