Hey Gang,

A few quick questions. Ran through bod’s tek and just wanted to do a temp check on my first tub grow.

I’ve got two 32 qt air seal tubs, lids flipped on day 6. My ratio is 1:1.5 coir with a touch of verm to get to a good field capacity. I’ve slightly misted tonight, probably didn’t have to.
I’m running a 12 hour light cycle with a single 100w soft light incandescent bulb.
Ambient room temp fluctuates between 69 (gigiddy) and 72 degrees. Sub surface has been hovering steadily at about 72.
I think the myc are running decently but if anyone can chime in and shout out any noticeable pointers or thoughts, I’d appreciate it.
1. Should I flipped lids normal for a few hours each day to increase CO2?
2. Sub looks well hydrated, no more misting until close to 100%?
3. Chill the fahq out and let the lil homies do it’s thing?

I see solid white filaments throughout but the puffy whiteness where there’s a tighter consolidation of grain is somewhat worrisome. You’ll see it in the corners.

Looks like it was too wet



Veil just broke on the bigger fruits, but I feel like these are much smaller than what I’ve seen on here. Would being too wet cause this? Trying to take notes to get bigger fruits for next time.





Dialed in my tub conditions! Substrate was a little too wet on the first and second flush...and/or I was over lighting the tubs with my T5 grow light. I had the tubs lit 10ish hours a day for the first and second flush. Wound up just scrapping the T5 light and opened the closet doors and window blinds. I also didn’t rehydrate the substrate after second flush to help it dry out a little. I’m now getting 40-55g fruits on the 3rd flush. thankful for all the help from you all and thank you Bod!

I just wanted to contribute by showing my experience with this tek.  I’m an amateur, I did begin in this hobby a few years ago using mostly bods teks but being busy with work I haven’t been growing for almost two years.

So just starting up again I used the only viable syringe I had(mazatek) and after starting agar prepped some oats.  So far I’m doing better than before, I think the reason for the improvement is just flipping the lid immediately. 

I’ve been harvesting right at 17 days.  My yields have also improved.  Tub 1 112 dry, tub 2 116 dry, tub 3 155.5! dry (5q spawn)  also I don’t do anything, no misting or general screwing with the tub at all, I’m not recommending anything but it seems to me the more I mess with things the more trouble I have especially misting.

Here are a few recent tubs of mazatek m.s.

Re: BOD's Easy AF UnBODified Monotub TEK (No Holes No Polyfil) [Re: bodhisatta]
    #26320608 - 11/14/19 05:39 PM (4 years, 2 months ago)

Any thoughts? First attempt, spawn to tub 7 days ago. I started with the lid flipped, then on the right way, then ajar. I put the lid back on the right way again today. Substrate has mycelium throughout and looks good moisture wise. I've resisted the urge to mist. Substrate is coir with a little gypsum. Thanks for your input.

Looks ok, bit of aerial mycelium but should  be good....stop fucking with the lid. Either leave it flipped or leave it closed till you see pins. Why did you leave it open?

I never left the lid fully off. Just either flipped or ajar. This a smaller Sterilize tub with latches on the ends instead of sides, and there is a rather large gap around the edges when lid is flipped. I'm messing with the lid so much because I'm paranoid about the surface conditions either Being too dry or too moist. I'm going to leave it closed now until I see pins. Thanks for your input!

Pretty sure I harvested my first lb today (I stopped weighing wet, I know I come to 8% dry by now).

Before


After


I'll start doing dehydrator batches tmrw after this fan does its job for awhile

Just a few top down pix, it only looks amazing from the top.. they are so short! 😂🤣😂🤣

Thought it was too much water from a couple tubs from 2 weeks ago so I didnt mist these once. Still only popped up 3-4". They are potent at least so I'll prob keep doing a couple tubs of them. Working on doing a bunch of AA+ MS tubs now (spawn them in like 9-10 days). I have a prime candidate for a AA+ clone that should be harvested in a day or two. Excited for that!

Purrrrdy


Also fuck... thanks Bod! Your teks have got me here, but seeing a compliment from you is pretty cool. Lol

*edit*

Here's one more and a pic of my fan setup that isn't large enough for 4 tubs... lol

Harvested tubs 5 & 6 today, after the slaughter pic, and you can see tubs 7 & 8 are lagging waaaaay behind. Dunno what happened there but they both seem to have decent enough pinsets.

Would you still recommend using a fan in a grow room with 12 monos stacked?

So I ended up getting 4.9642857143oz/tub using 5qt spawn/tub falling just short of the 1oz/1qt goal. I'm sure if I took more time harvesting and left smaller stumps I would of hit 100% on the first flush for sure but close enough. Guess I'll see what the second brings! Either way, I did hit my first lb of mushies in a single harvest! I feel so accomplished 😂🤣😂🤣

Hey, I’m new to this, currently on my first attempt.


I’m still a little unclear about the mono tek

During the first few days as it colonizes do you keep the lid upside down at all times or do you leave the lid open for a couple hours a day?

How often do you mist during this phase?

Currently on day 5

Hey bod,I have been experimenting with a few different teks, and stumbled upon yours recently, and after reading it through, I'm gonna try giving it a go. So I have everything I need, but in regards to the 54 qt sterilite tubs.. if you flip the lid upside down it creates those 4 air gaps, but also has gaps around the whole lid, basically all the lines in between the 4 big gaps. I feel like this would generate too much FAE. Do you use a weight on the lid so the inner gaps disappear and only the 4 bigger ones sustain?

you shouldn't need to mist at all during colonization. you can let it breathe during colonization or put the lid on normal see what works for you. I let it breathe during colonization
