Bottom poly needs to be stuffed tighter but all things considered its not terrible.  If it wasn't cased you might have problems but stuff those bottom holes way tighter and be patient. This is ms right?  Don't expect a full canopy from ms, you have lots of genetics in there, some might be working together and lots won't. They will pin when ready.

There is plenty of primordia and thats good. Just stuff that bottom poly way tighter and it will be fine.

Thanks guys.

Well FML!

I just noticed Ive got a shitload of side pins.

I guess my humidity levels on top were fucked.

You can fix your humidity by putting a blanket of peat moss and vermiculite on top. The humidity on the surface will be 100% and it will pin like crazy. You could also use the wax paper or the bubble wrap tek, but they're not so efficient.

I already cased it with CVG, so Im not going to add another layer.

Im beginning to think that I need to add a humidifier to the closet.

Humidifier in a monotub, that's not a wise move. If you already cased your substrate you just need to wait. You probably messed up the fruiting cycle, it might take a little longer to pin on the surface.

Clearly, you are high. :crazy2:Where did you read I was going to put the humidifier in the mono tub?

Don't automate your monotub with a humidifier dude. I don't think I need to draw it for you, so you can understand the message.

Ok dude....

I would think that by raising the RH in the room it may help in the tub as well. Maybe not much but better than nothing.

Im also not convinced this digital hygrometer is worth a fuck.

27qt Today






66qt is getting a much better pinset. This is one corner, but there about 12 more of these clusters.

Well I just got home to find the 27qt ready for a few to be harvested. It was 89 grams and there will be more ready in the morning. Not really happy with the side pins and the lack of pinset in this tub, but all in all, being my first time Im pretty stoked at the effort. 32 days from inoculation and I got fruit!



The 66qt is going to be much better.

It looks dialed in well,  the sub looks good and its loaded with knots. I think ya just got one of the rare cases of bad genetics. I bet it blows up on the second flush.

My buddy told me the same thing. Said to pull the liner out tomorrow, get all the side pins out and get ready for a better second flush.

Pull the substrate out this morning on the 27 and got all the side growth and a few from the top.

Pretty fucking stoked! I got over an ounce from the 27qt from the first flush once I got the last stragglers this morning. Side pins yes, but whatever.

I really mixed my sub and grains together but kind of loose. Im wondering if I pack it down a bit, not too much, but better than before that this will aleviate that and let the liner shrink to the sides better?

Also, this is the 66qt as of this morning. :mushroom2::eek::mushroom2::eek:

Myc needs those air pockets in the soil but a light pat to make sure everything is level is just fine :super:,

Key is not to overdo it. Fuck everybody's tubs, idgaf if you got sidepins or not good fucking job brotha!

I will definitely focus on an even layout. I got to get some more sub done today, but might not be capable as Im debating trying out the fruits of my labor!

Thanks for the kind words brother! Definitely giving the props to the wealth of knowledge and experience here on the forum. Made it pretty easy to have success on my first go at it.

I remember Tmethyl never used liners cause he thought side pins were awesome. The other thing to keep in mind is that top fruiting is a bit of an unnatural thing for cubes. They prefer to pin from the sides of the substrate in nature and sometimes you get genetics that will fight real hard to do just that.

At the end of the day what matters is ya got a nice pull :rockon:
