That looks pretty damn perfect to me

Just a quick update on the mono. I noticed the surface looks dry, with no visible moisture on the surface of the casing layer, and virtually no condensation on the sides of the tub. Also, the surface of the tub already looked dry before casing, so I think adding it only dried it out even more. Should I give the mono a nice misting, what do you guys think?



And the temp has climbed to 82f, hopefully that's not too hot and won't affect the first flush too bad. It's been a really hot summer and every room in my house is at least 77f.

Yeah, dont let it go dry. Lightly mist 1-2 times a day.
Looking good though,

I'll give it a light misting then, I feel like the casing will benefit from it, given the fact that I fruited the tub right after applying it. Thanks guys.

Casings shouldn't have a micro-beads of water.
Mist as needed Most likely once a day depending on your FAE. Just give it a good mist to make it all look a bit damp.

I fruit in the high 80's often. Doesn't seem to bother the fruits. They are tropical after all. Just make sure they're getting good FAE.

Thanks man, I'll be updating soon, I already saw some new pins popping up after I gave the tub that misting and adjusted the polyfill

Yeah I was adjusting the polyfill earlier today. Should the bottom holes be stuffed as tight as possible or should there be some air-space? Frank's "how to dial in mono's" only showed how to stuff the top holes. I don't want to be suffocating my mushies.

Fuck you MS  Had to take polyfill out of the top holes because I may have over-misted the casing. Hopefully the second flush comes in stronger, but I seem to have gotten some shitty genetics here or just dirty spawn..

Could be some sort of contam in the middle there. Kind of weird that the whole middle didn't pin like that.

I know, I was like what the fuck , but the mycelium has permeated the casing layer almost completely. I'll keep the top holes open for now for max FAE. Then I'll stuff loosely with polyfill tomorrow morning, and hope for the middle to pin up.
