31qt mono
    #21260768 - 02/11/15 08:26 PM (9 years, 3 months ago)

Hey, I've been following franks "How I Get Shit Done" and have come across a small issue. I'd decided to use old MS spore syringes that came from a unreliable source and inoculated 3 jars with it instead of the optimal 6. Now, considering I've used half the recommended spawn for a monotub, I thought it would be a good idea to half the size of the mono.

My question is, how would I convert the hole size and distance from a regular mono to one half the size?

Long side: Measure length (prob on sticker on tub). Divide by 3. Measure from either edge and theres the center of the two holes on each side

Short side: Centered, as high up as you can go

The mushroom speaks: '"I am old, older than thought in your species, which is itself fifty times older than your history. Though I have been on earth for ages I am from the stars. My home is no one planet, for many worlds scattered through the shining disc of the galaxy have conditions which allow my spores an opportunity for life... How the hypercommunication mode operates is a secret which will not be lightly given to man. But the means should be obvious: it is the occurrence of psilocybin and psilocin in the biosynthetic pathways of my living body that opens for me and my symbiots the vision screens to many worlds"

Hole size I assume must be the same?

I have some different sized mini-monos. When purchasing the number one thing I look for is height, at least 9", then as much surface area as possible.

Sometimes I just eyeball the holes 3"-3.5" from the bottom but if you want to be accurate use water:

I'm going to use 1/2 brick coir, 1 quart verm, a negligible amount of gypsum and 2-3 quarts of spawn.

Measure quarts of water and dump them into your empty tub to see where your substrate will be.

+1/2 brick coir hydrated = 4 qts
+1 qt verm
+ 3 qts spawn
=16 qts

As for hole size and location, I personally prefer the standard 6 hole setup with 1" holes.

My 31qt has pretty much perfect dimensions. Its still the two holes on each of the long sides and one on each of the short near the top? Im not sure how to dial them in. Iassume they would have much more Fae per substrate than the regular Mono's.

That's how I do mine but I know Pasty has a different setup in his mini-mono thread.
