Well I'm guessing the problem is going to be any grains that you have now exposed. Unless this wasn't a serious post...is it?

Hah yea it is. I used multiple smaller t rashbags as a liner so I ended up with mushrooms growing through the liner and unholy amounts of side/bottom fruits so I had to lift it out with my hands. It cracked in half when I was putting it back in the bin. I haven't had this happen yet, I figure its not a big deal but I could use reassurance

You will probably get a ton of pins in the micro climate crack you made. I wouldn't worry about contamination because your grains, exposed or not are contaminate resistance if they are already colonized. I wouldn't imagine you would have un-colonized grains if you are on your second flush.

I once read this can increase the risks of contams..though I've done it on a 3rd flush before and it was fine.

O k cool thanks. So it just turns into two subs then? All these mushrooms mushies together real bad and made a huge mess to harvest. 4 oz at least from side fruits... the top of the sub is still pretty but the sides got tore up a bit. How will that affect future flushes?

I've broken plenty screwing around with tubs of bulk..... only twice it actually caused a contamination issue (probably due to a dirty dunk) but usually if you just let the 1st flush finish and than give it 2-3days to recover the mycellium will branch out on the damaged portions.

If you have a contam, it is more than likely your sub. Just because you broke your tub doesn't mean it is going to contaminate. If you end up with a contaminate, chances are it was already there from the start.
