humidity to high
    #18750475 - 08/24/13 08:21 AM (10 years, 5 months ago)

So I have a tub going, and it just gave me my first flush.  I have never had a problem with humidity before..  The damn spores wont drop and it has started to fire me up lol.. I have six one inch holes with microspore  tape on them... I fan about 3 to five times a day.. this time was my first time doing neglect on the tub.. ( I did mist it a couple times during the wait for fruits, and I don't think I should of done that ).. Should I go back to fanning my tub three times a day to keep the humidity right so my spores drop?  Or should I just make more holes in the tub... I do like fanning I was just trying some thing new.. thanks to any one who helps :heart:

Humidity levels have nothing to do with spores dropping.

That is going to happen to every matured mushroom, even if the humidity is not perfect.

Mushrooms drop spores......this is just what they do.

Do people seriously think it is called "microspore" tape?

You're like the 5th person...:facepalm:

You don't have a humidity problem but you do have a fresh air problem.  Open up the holes during fruiting.

The spores will drop when the caps flatten out unless you've managed to come up with a sporeless strain.  If you get one of those, clone it if it has the other qualities you desire.

:whathesaid:

I'll assume you have a monotub...  If that's the case I'd suggest using polyfil as opposed to tape to get your balance of rh and fae.  There are plenty of teks around here that show you how to do it, but the basic gist is...

2 holes @ sub level on long sides...  stuff the polyfil as tight as possible.
1 hole on short sides in middle as high as it can go...  stuff the poly as loose as possible

What your looking for is condensation on the walls while having "clear zones" around the poly holes.  If it's dry, tighten up the poly.  If there is no dry zones around the holes loosen the poly a bit.

I'm not having any problems with the tub lol.. I just pulled almost six zips dry on the first flush, :takingnotes:  and yeah I know how to print :rolleyes: In my FC well duh where else would I do it? As I said before the problem is they are not dropping spores, I wait till I see the stem and the bottom of my tub have spores all over it then I print. I thought it had to do with humidity, it dose not so what is the problem? lol.. And I use to use polyfill all I can say is I don't like it. It is best not to even have any holes stuffed ( IMO ) I do the tape just cause I have a super hairy dog, lol she gets every where. Thanks guys for the help.:heart:  Thank you RR Much love man
