Stumped by these small fruits - advice?
    #20621102 - 09/26/14 11:12 AM (10 years, 3 months ago)

Hey guys - I've searched through all the posts and found many about the same problem, but I still cannot figure out what's causing some small fruits for me in one of my monotubs. So here are some details and pics. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks bros. 

Details:
-Strain: B+ (other pics for comparison are mexi-cubs and PE's that are doing fine with the same set up)
-Colonized organic rye grain spawned to Damon's coir tek
-Monotub is 14gal, 1:2 ratio spawn to sub.
-Holes at 1 1/8" inch, at sub level
-Monotub is dialed in, showing condensation evaporating only in small rings along bottom holes, slightly more against looser polyfil in top holes
-Room temp is mid to low 70s, with a fan pointed near by not directly at the tubs
-I fan the tubs 1-2 times a day, and only mist the tub walls if needed

The problem is, this happened to me last time with the B+'s. Amazing pinset but small fruits on first flush, then perfect fruits on the 2nd and 3rd. What could I be doing wrong here?

Well you are supposed to mist directly on the fruits not the walls I've read somewhere that that slows growth and are you using a mss? If so you never know what you are going to get genetically form a syringe

But if you're in a hurry, and really got to go
If you're in a hurry, might have to find out slow
That it's one thing to try and another to fly
You get there quicker just a step at a time
It's one thing to bark, another to bite
The show ain't over till you pack up at night

shouldn't need to mist a mono
tooo wet of a sub could be the cause or too dry but too wet is my guess as your following flushes are doing good

It doesn't matter what i think of you...all that matters is clean spawn
I'm tired do me a favor

mono's you can dial in so that it's simple stuffign the holes and waiting to harvest, no fanning no misting
