Update 12/05:
Whew, so a lot has happened since the last update. My first tub had some issues and didnt ever fully colonize.. but it began pinning so i threw it into fruiting yesterday! Just made a new mini-mono yesterday as well, so hopefully that one colonizes correctly. some pics of the tubs and light set up!
   
Also went ahead and finally got to try my hand at a G2G transfer for my amazonian strain. all the jars, but one, were lost to bacterial contamination. So luckily i was able to turn that one jar into 7 more! This is a picture two days after the transfer (wow this stuff colonizes fast!!). Also a picture of the space heater currently heating the room (:
  
Setting up jars currently for another G2G tomorrow. and will have some real mono-tubs in the near future. Hopefully well have some pics of mushrooms soon!!! Cant wait

Looking really nice man. I need to get myself one of those strainers and spoon things for my wbs, just need to go shopping! Hopefully we will see some life here soon:)
I've got my first mono going, not doing well either but hopefully patience pays off right? I was also thinking of getting some smaller tubs just to have backups for extra colonizing jars and whatnot.
Can't wait to see more! Nice thread!

Update 12/21:
ok, so its been awhile, and i have been super busy at work. as such, ive sort of neglected my hobby which really bums me out. On top of which, i thought my first tub was a dud. it just wouldnt fruit!!!!
But patience perseveres, and although the flush is absolutely nothing to brag about, i got mushrooms! Im so stoked, you have no idea lol. i just picked them, and i cant wait to try them out. I havent gotten to do as many G2G transfers as id hoped. But i have at least 12 fully colonized jars, so this weekend will be dedicated to this hobby, and hopefully ill pump out a few more tubs/jar sets soon!
i dont have a scale, so i dont know what the weight is like.. but if any trained eyes can give me an estimate that would be great!!
  
As you can see. Lots of side pinning. im definitely going to be using a liner on my future tubs. its pretty disappointing to see all the mushrooms on the side, and none on the top lol. either way, this is my first tub, and im happy with the results! it can only get better from here!!!

Update 12/24:
Alright, probably gonna end this thread pretty soon. ive got two tubs in fruiting, and the first one is just about dead. Also, im currently in the process of setting up some substrate for two more mini-monos! leaving tonight to go see family, so i have to get this done quick. Gotta finish letting it soak, then pasteurize, and throw it in the tubs by tonight.. hopefully it cools enough by then.
Also ive been completely neglecting to do my G2G transfer.. ive had jars that i PC'd, sitting in the PC for 3 weeks -__-. i suck. hopefully those are still good to go so i can G2G them today.
Anyway thats it! I figure this thread is done once these tubs are fully finished. It kind of feels like that is the end of my first experience. Since i have essentially messed up every part of the process at least slightly, and then revised it the next time over, it feels like the perfect place to call the end of my first grow when i finally have a tub that i can throw all my acquired knowledge into!
Thanks everyone for all your help, and i hope these last two tubs can really show what ive learned!!!!
