Black tape on bottom of monotub?
    #21332019 - 02/26/15 09:09 AM (9 years, 10 months ago)

Hey guys, I tried searching for this in the forums with 'tape on monotub' 'black tape monotub' 'tape on bottom of monotub'. But was unable to find any results that actually explained what the point of it is? Can someone enlighten me?

I don't understand. I don't tape the bottom of my monotub.

I make my liner like Spitball.

Its was dry humor...but it does nothing, a liner will hold the substrate reducing/eliminating side and botom pins

It was thought years ago that light was the main cause of side pinning, but was determined to be false.

yes and people still think light causes side pins. it's a poorly built monotub creating side pins the environment is better on the side than the top you'll get side pins.

you can use a clear liner no problem.





both get light on the side, the difference was fruiting conditions and skill.

Go to the hardware store and buy some thick mil, clear plastic drop cloth, it makes the best liners, a five dollar roll will make plenty of tubs!
