Lol, then my fruiting Chamber might not be much better for you. It pretty much just requires that you open the lid in the morning, and put it back on at night- still 2 visits a day.  Water and friction take care of the rest.

I'm going to do a few grows, take a few pics, and if it produces consistent, favorable results, I'll make a thread showing what I found.

Two visits a day is no problem but they could be 16 hrs apart. I can make a SGFC work well enough for cakes and trays, but the real problem with these is the bottom watering. These things are like sponges. On a small scale like this its still relatively easy to manage, but if I had 30 or 40 going I'm thinking it would be a lot to keep track of.

Got a container to harvest and a another coming up. Bottom watered this one 4 times already.



It had a few side pins, but I will say that they were really easy to deal with. Just plopped the cake right out and picked them off :thumbup:

This one is right behind.



This one is abort city. Looks like a couple might make it.



Bulks second flush looks alright. A little sparse but not terrible. Got a few nice clusters.



They look decent. If I get a third, I will be pretty happy methinks.

Too calm if you ask me :paranoid: :lol:

Well I got veils popping in the tub so the second flush is pretty much in. Won't bother with a wet weight, taking quite a few prints.



Got me another PP5 container ready to pluck as well. Violet wasn't kidding when she said daily harvests with these.



Little forced perspective shot for van der grigen :lmafo:

That is a truly beautiful monotub.

Nope!


... but it still shouldn't be quite like what you mean by it, not this way.


The un-evenness of your flushing is a main thing that's indicative of there being some factors taking away from the effectiveness of your container grow.

When I use an isolate, they colonized evenly as they ought, they're all given time to catch-up with plenty of consolidation, and they're cased & introduced to fruiting on the same timeline,  they should all have consistently nearly identical flush speed, frequency, size, and appearance.

Observe how all of these are clearly synchronized.
(Ones in the back were introduced later)

(the apparent de-sync is due to the effects of gradient lighting, but note that all containers show this de-sync with perfect sync)

it happen. I know what you were getting at. I'm a big fan of fruiting bulk subs like cakes. Mind you there are only so many nutes in each sub so more surface aria doesn't really mean more fruits.

So Violet, what in your opinion is going wrong? Conditions are good. While I had stalling issues with two containers,  the other four were done at the same time. FAE is good, and I have gone to great lengths to ensure they are bottom watered and misted at least twice a day. A big part of this thread was to see how V tek could fit into my lifestyle and my grow style and you assured me several times that it could.  What do I need to be doing? I got a container with over 100 pins then 95% abort. Whats the key? If you blame it on the culture fine, but if there is something else I would really like to know as I plan to try this with other species. I dont think its the SGFC fault as I have worked to offset the negative aspects that that chamber has in my environment. I would really appreciate some insight here.
