Need some help here... this is my 2nd attempt at a mono and I ended up with the same mildew smell in my tubs. They are fully colonized and look ok, but all I can smell inside is mildew. What could I be doing wrong? My grain jars looked perfect. Coir was prepared with Bods bucket tek. Do you think it will be salvageable?

Those little puddles on the surface are no bueno. I know that much. Usual advice is to let is soak up with the corner of a clean paper towel.

29 Days after bulk mix

no canopy like other pics here but i'm quite happy anyways since its my first grow ever and i did some mistakes. next one will be better :-)
i cut off the mature ones and will let the others grow.

since i think they wont all mature at the same time, when should i dunk? Also having lots of side pinning, do i have to remove all the pins between flushes?
theres a lot of conflicting info regarding spore drops, will it really impact growth if some caps dropped spores ?

Spores don’t hurt anything ime.
Just harvest them as they’re ready, eventually the ones still on there will all finish at once all of a sudden.
What kind are they?? I like the cap color. And that’s some crazy bruising on the stumps.

Oh cool I figured from the color they were ks or something.
The bruised stumps are normal it happens no matter what you do. Not that it affects anything though.

Good Morning, Happy Mothers Day to anyone who may be filling that role. I was going to purchase a kit and started buying the extras I needed and found this tek. I have 6# rye (2- 3# bags) inoculated from 1 syringe ea. 10# manure casing coming I found a 54qt totem as OP posted. My problem. 1. If see no reason I can't continue with OP's original tek with my ingredients using this method. Am I correct? 2. I have a small grow tent set ups from a perpetual grow that I'll ne using for the tub. What type of schedule should I change out the air in the tent, and inside circulation what about fans inside? Thanks for posting the tek..

You can definitely use this tek with whatever bulk sub you use.

In my experience with using tents as long as you come and check the tub at least daily that should be sufficient air exchange but as they say your miles may vary, good luck!

FAE in the tent depends on a few things but for this tek+shoeboxes I use a single fan at the bottom of the tent blowing upwards. It runs automatically every 4 hours for 30 minutes each. Fan is a single desktop fan on the lowest setting.

If you put these tubs in a tent you'll fail. This tek the tubs don't go in a tent.

Thank You for that info. I am going to have to find a tek that I can grow in a tent (zero closet space) any recommendations on a beginner tek that I can make best use of materials on hand? I've got 2 54qt Sterlites 6# inoc rye (1 week) 10# substrate on way 2x3 tent set up. Thanks in advance

Apologies on the potato quality images, but I think I got... something to grow? I'm not sure. (the condensation is from my SAB being under a window, but I've since sandwiched the plates between my failures to insulate them and it seems to have cleaned up the moisture)



Some of the plates have very thin / clear growth and I'm not sure what it is. It's hard to capture with the aforementioned condensation:


The good news is that I've yet to have anything grow on the plates other than what I've put on them, but as a first-time grower I just don't know what I've put on them 
Thoughts?

You can always put a warm coffee mug on a plate or place it upside down on a laptop to get away with condensation.

Contams are coming from your spawn. Be more careful when inoculating spawn.

For my very first mushroom grow I got myself a Cube (GT) print and went with this unbodified tek. Aside from all the side pins I couldn’t be happier. Hell, even the side pins are awesome from my POV considering I was worried I may fuck something up and not get any mushrooms at all. There’s plenty of time to get that shit dialed in for future grows.
Spores started to drop about 3 hours after this pic was taken so I harvested. Didn’t bother weighing them wet, got them in the dehydrator now and will weigh them dry. They sure were a lot shorter than I expected them to be, hopefully the later flushes will net me some bigger ones.

Now that I know I can do it and I’ve got one under my belt, I can finally rest easy. Since this was my first grow, once I got pins I basically hovered over the tub and watched them grow until it was harvest time. Definitely gave them too much attention, something I can easily correct once I get a few more grows under my belt and the sight of new pins doesn’t excite the shit outta me.
Among others, thanks bod

Are you sure? I've started with agar and I always check the jars before I mix a tub I cant see anything also one thing I changed was I started using bleach/vinegar mix instead of iso because there isnt any on the shelves do you think I should restart my jars using agar every couple months or so will that help?

Also if it is coming from my spawn is there any way I can tell because my jars look completely white should I shake them after they colonize a couple more times or leave them longer will it show up then?
