My first monotub grow. I need help with humidity & FAE. PICS
    #19007881 - 10/21/13 10:45 AM (10 years, 4 months ago)

I want to know if i'm getting the right amount of FAE & humidity. I am getting skinny mushies, i have read that not enough air can cause this. I have a fan like 10ft away from it,the condensation goes when i let the fan on. My question is, should i buy a humidifier and leave the fan on?, so that the amount of humidity & air is balanced. THANKS <3

Bucket tek is outdated. It's like using a cucumber for a dildo, it works, but you'd rather have a vibrator!

If I were you I'd make holes following Doc T's mini-mono specs. Your tub looks like it needs some FAE. Use a

Or you could just loose all the tape, and most of the polyfill and you should be good.

It should be getting all the FAE it needs constantly.

This is why we "dial in" our tubs, bu adjusting the polyfill stuffed in the holes.

Usually the bottom holes are stuffed really super tight, and the top holes loose as hell.

This usually creates the perfect amount of airflow, making the tub self automated.

Get rid of whatever is on the lid, loosen the top holes.

You should see a slight ring of dryness around each hole, this means that that hole is getting enough FAE.

Make sure they all look like that and you should be golden.

Thanks allot :smile::thumbup: . There's tape on the lid preventing contaminants. I've should not be worrying about contaminants right?

Nope. Fruiting is not a sterile process.

Pasteurized bulk substrate material is contam resistant, so is colonized spawn....or fully colonized anything for that matter.

When you spawned the tub(in open air) you mixed in millions of contams, it would be silly to worry about that now....lol.

FAE is something that is trail and error unfortunately.. You will just need to tinker with your setup in order to get your desired results.

I always fanned my FC a couple times a day by removing the lid and giving a good fanning and misting... I never had more than 4-6 3/4 inch holes on my tub and those were stuffed with polyfill.

You will get better results as you gain more experience :yesnod:
