My second monotub, ho! Updated for Third Flush
    #22044540 - 08/04/15 09:03 PM (8 years, 5 months ago)

2nd mono, literally the same day as I harvested the last of flush 1 from my first. Same deal, 55qt tub, 3 qts coir, 1qt hpoo, 3 quarts verm, handfuls of wormcasings, bat guano, and gypsum. 10 PF Tek cakes, using a cheese grater.





Can't wait to get a bigger PC to start doing grains.

I'm going to case this one, using 75% the same mix with 25% peat thrown in to make it a little less nutritious- what do you think about that? I know peat is usually reserved for PE.

Looks almost ready, think I'll let it go at least another day though.

anytime ya use peat you should throw some hydrated lime in the mix, about 5% of the peat used

There's some dolomite lime thrown in- probably actually to a slightly higher percentage than 5. I also have some gypsum, oyster shell, and bat guano for pH

Edit: is dolomite lime the same as dehydrated? Or do you think I should just not bother with the peat? I'm just wondering because I think I understand the why of a casing, so I wanted to lower the nutritional level for the mycelium therefore theoretically gaining a better pinset.

I think you dolomite want to rethink your decision.

Ok cool.


Damn that sucks- I spent all of my check on a new PC so I'll have to wait to pick it up. I guess that means no peat. I kept them separate when I pasteurized so it won't be too much of a burden on my resources/time and I can always keep the bag I have for when I can.

What do you think though of my idea to lower the nutritional level with 25% peat? (Given that I have all the proper materials).

Pins coming through the casing! A nice cluster there- should I wait another day or two to fruit since the casing isn't 30% yet?
