Thanks Faht! You've been an inspiration to me in my work, I've been watching your threads for some time now and I must say I am very impressed with your work Thanks for the props on the cake tub as well! I have one of those going right now too along with this Monotub and another mono I'm about to do. I think I may just do a step by step grow log so everyone can see how I do things. Pic of the tub>

DroolingRock: It's going to be whoever is just plain closest 
I'll keep you guys updated with more pics as the day grows long.
Pics from just now:





Thanks guys, more updates to come soon!

Nice! I'm glad I could inspire you! I love seeing fruiting chambers for cakes that are appropriately sized for them. They create micro-climates for each other.. no reason to stress the cakes out by increasing their environment. Keep on keepin' on.

Thanks man, I've been growing for years and have learned to tweak my own way for best results and what works for me. I like to keep it simple. Oh I did pick one large mushroom and it weighed 46g. Some pics from just now>

Update:

Should I start harvesting some of the older mushrooms or just wait for the others to mature?? I'm going for the most weight here.

I always try and harvest right after the veil tears or even a little before if I'm going to be away from the house for a few hours. Though my main objective is always potency, I create more weight by doing more tubs. I try and never let them over mature but that's just me.

Unfortunately I was undecided and left the house only to come back to an over matured tub. I will definitely get some weight off of this but will now have to wash off the caps with cotton balls to give them that "golden cap" that everyone seems to always want to see. These are my harvest pics and I will have some wet weight info here shortly>

So I harvested and there was so much I didn't even bother to weigh it out while wet and fresh! But it's definitely gotta be a record for me, I will continue to use a vermiculite casing layer on all of my tubs. So I did tear up the substrate a little bit at first when I couldn't find scissors and was too much in a hurry to start my harvest which you will see in the left side of the tub in the picture below. I used the twist and pull method and that f'd up my substrate then I found the scissors and all was well. After fully harvesting I saturated the substrate then added a new thin layer of vermiculite and then saturated that. So we shall see what the second flush has in store for me. Here are some pics for your enjoyment.

Alright so as an update, I'm still waiting for them to dry out, i'm just using a large box fan aimed at the 3 boxes full of mushies you can see above in one of my last posts. I should have a complete dry weight sometime tomorrow evening or the day after tomorrow. I may even look into buying a dehydrator if I can find a cheap one... maybe someone can point me in the right direction while I begin my search! Meanwhile I have a cake tub that seems to be doing very well I'll post up some pics of that here in a little bit.
Here is my current cake tub on it's first flush> 
And here is one of my small cake tubs going on it's 6th flush!!! Still no contams!!> 
I have some great B+ genetics going on here! Remember whoever got closest to the dry weight gets a print and something else special that will carry on the great genetics of this batch! Slant wink wink.

I'd say you got at least 6 oz there. Just got 4.5 oz off my 55 qt and my canopy wasn't nearly as impressive as yours. Definitely sucks when you wait too long to harvest, I hate having to clean the spores off the caps.

Thanks guys! I went out grocery shopping and picked up a "Presto Dehydro Model 06300" because the fan I was using to dry the mushrooms fell over and one of the fan blades broke, turns out I left the thing in the bottom of the cart (It was around $50) and when I checked out I completely forgot about it and so did the cashier and I didn't even realize it until I got to the car so I got a free dehydrator bahahah!! I packed it full and could only get half of my flush in there even with it almost fully dried. Here is a pic of my cake tub until the results are in with final weight 
Let me know what you guys think >

Okay, the results are pretty much in because no one but Faht got close and he was still off by a couple of oz's. I'm not finished dehydrating them but I have a total of 8oz cracker dry bagged so far. I'm looking at maybe one or two more oz's. Amazing and definitely a new record for me!! (this is not including the cake tub!) Faht, you win so if you want you can PM me with your details and I'll be sending you some of these genetics I'll do another contest with the cake tub, faht excluded since he already won the first round with the monotub!! I will update again later.

Lol, if you would actually read through the thread this is just from one 5qt wbs spawn to coco coir monotub!!! Not from pf-cakes lol. I haven't weighed out or harvested my cake tub yet lol. Read this thread from the beginning for more understanding ;P Jesus if I could yield that much from just cakes I never would have tried a monotub in the first place long ago. lol.
