Need some monotub advice
    #18802308 - 09/05/13 07:11 AM (10 years, 4 months ago)

Hey guys, I was curious what I should do. I have 6 qt jars of PE colonizing very quickly and I also have 1 KSSS due to the others not germinating.

Should I spawn all 6 quarts to a single 64 qt monotub or should I spawn them to multiple tubs for highest yield?

Also what should I do with my 1 qt of KSSS? I have never done g2g and I am unsure of what kind if sterile conditions I can provide for long periods.

I suggest you g2g those jars to 60 or so other jars and then attempt to take over the world........:awethumb:

If that was something I was confident in doing it would have already been done but I've worked hard to get here and I don't want to throw it away now with contamination due to shift procedure

Spawn all 6 qt jars of PE to one tub, wash the jars out and make more jars of grain. Then G2G the KSSS jar to the 6 new qt jars. Look into building a SAB (Still Air Box), and follow Franks tek on doing G2G (Franks Tek, click here)

If you do it in a SAB there shouldn't be a problem with contams.

This is such useless advice.  What are you going to do with 60 quarts, run ten tubs at once?  This is asking for a massive failure.

Thank you for that video, it was nice actually seeing how easy that is. Do you happen to have a SAB construction tek? Drilling holes in plastic tubs intimidates me only because I don't have a drill

You can heat up an empty aluminum can on the stove and melt holes as well.  The holes aren't the greatest, but it works.

Literally an SAB tek is putting holes in a tub.  That's it.  Some people like to add tyvek sleeves and PVC to the holes to help prevent drafts.

Here is TL's pictorial

If you are getting a 75% success rate on agar in a SAB, your sterile technique needs some fine tuning, not the SAB.

A flow hood is not going to fix this.

I get 99-100% success rate in my SAB, with no thought of building a flow hood anytime soon.

These are just pictures, but the basic idea is to have a plastic tub with two holes for the arms. You can use the one with the lid on or turn it upside down and lay a moist towel underneath to catch the whatever particles that lands on it. Keep sides moist for the same reason. That's it. You can even take a cardboard box and cut some holes in it, make a saran wrap window and you got yourself a SAB. :smile:

My first ghetto cardboard SAB treated me well.  I used clear packing tape instead of saran wrap.

How I made my SAB. If you don't ave a drill, you will have to figure out a different way to make the arm holes.

Draw holes with pencil, then torch lighter.

Also will Damion's bucket tech suffice as long as I make sure to water is between 170 and 180?

Try closed container myc transfer with the KSSS :smile:  Pc a jar of water with a filter covered hole and an injection site, sterilize a syringe, suck clean water up, shoot in colonized KSSS jar, swirl around a bit (I dont shake like the grain lc tek), suck back out and noc up some lc and/or several more grain jars.  My original jar is still very much able to be used for spawn purposes when the other jars catch up. They usually colonize fairly quickly using this technique.

Jboredone.  You need to realize before you critique, that g2g is a very viable method that is utilized by more than a few cultivators on this forum.  Yes, with that much spawn you could make 10 tubs, and yes it has been done in the past, and is currently being utilized as a method by more than a few of us with great success.

I actually think the advice of spawning the PE, and G2G the KSS is a great idea.  Yes you will need a still air box or flow hood, and yes it is a very viable method. 


Good luck in your future endeavors.
