couple things I was looking to clarify about monotubs, does it matter the size of the holes?  didn't find many teks with specific measurements.  and also, if you're working with a black tub, is the bag at the bottom to prevent under pinning (?) not necessary?  new to cultivating mushrooms but taken aback by the simplicity of monotubs and damions coir tek for spawning to bulk- along with some of the brf cakes to bulk teks- thinking about giving it a shot, has anyone has much success going this route during their first few grows?  thanks.





The bag is optional if you have an opaque tub, some say its required, but its a hassle imo, and gets all yucky, and also can prevent the sub from reuptaking water if water is dripping down the sides of your tub, and under the liner.

Holes needa be 1-2", and be set every 5" or so apart, just above the substrate level.

My very first bulk grows were done with pf cakes to poo via the Simple Invitro Poo Bag tek by hydr0420, and Ohmatic's original monotub tek, minus the liner... even ohm gave up the liner when using opaque tubs.

you make some good points.  why is it that you don't need a liner with an opaque tub though?
