Re: Unmodified(no holes no poly) 54q Fruiting Chamber(off the shelf monotub) TEK [Re: yaleforks]
    #26828818 - 07/17/20 11:55 AM (3 years, 6 months ago)

Since moving to clones from a multi spore grow, my yields have reduced and taken longer to fruit, whilst still using this same tek.

Is that a normal risk / just a bad clone?

One of the clones I used was a huge shroom, the other was cluster, both of which have performed poorly compared to previous grows.

Back to the drawing board.

Yes, started pinning 1-2 days after my post about it not pinning. Haha

Took 3-4 days to before I harvested. One cap dropped some spores, rest were not there yet.

I left the lid flipped upside down for FAE at all times since  my first post. Now I keep the lids upside down from day 1. We will see how that does here in the next few weeks.

This unmodified tek is gold. Very grateful for the wisdom from the old skool cats




NO issues with contaimination while colonizing the tub, hey?  Thinking about buying a HEPA scrubber to keep in my fruiting space to reduce liklihood of contamination while the tubs colonize.




No issues with contamination at all. At least that I can see. It's likely that there is some type of bacteria that they were fighting but they fruited very well. Although I will say that I wish that the yields were much higher because they seemed low compared to others here. I'm already in a second flush for that tub and it seems like the fruits are bigger but there's not as many fruits so I don't know the weight or what it will be but I'm concerned that the dried whey will be less than when I had on my 1st flush. I have a few other tubs going now so I'm testing some variables with heat and light and FAE.  I'm also growing puerto rican so perhaps I need to try a different strain here and soon there will be an African strain going into a mono tub. My goal is to get a much bigger yield around several ounces at least. Penis envy is the next frontier for me and I'm looking at that for the late summer or fall.

Re: BOD's Easy AF UnBODified Monotub TEK (No Holes No Polyfil) [Re: bodhisatta]
    #26830592 - 07/18/20 11:18 AM (3 years, 6 months ago)

Looking forward to starting this tek today.

The only part I'm trying to figure out (maybe the original tek could be updated) is...

How to work backwards from my tub size to determine the amount of substrate to prepare and the amount of spawn.

This should be a function of 1) bin size, and 2) height of growing material in the bin.

Any suggestions? Worst case I'll just eyeball it.

I use a 1:3 ratio of spawn to substrate. Typically,  1 brick of coir is 650 g dry. Wet is a lot more so I weigh my substrate & spawn to create the 1:3 ratio. I only need 1 brick of coir in my 54 qt tub that is reccomended in this tek. Unless the tub is way bigger, I'd use 1 brick of coir & as much spawn as you want. I do think over a 1:2 ratio of seems better but its up to you.

So who had had the biggest yield with these tubs and this tek weather the substrate was a little different I'm making a goal I want to get 1lb out of this tub in 6 weeks and I'll use whatever amount of spawn and whatever sub I need to achieve it does anyone think this is possible?

You will be better with two tubs and 5-6 QT in each.

I might have over looked this question being answered but I can only fit seven quart jars in my 23qt presto PC.  Am I doing something wrong or did they used to be taller?  Or are newer quart jars taller? I recieved my equipment in the last two months.  I tried the example in the pics and they just do not fit.
Thanks in advance.

Second Grow... again 2 unmodified tubs

1. Cambo
grains inoculated: 08.06.
bulk mix: 03.07.


After...  3 Days  ----------------------> 7 Days ----------------------> 13 Days ----------------------> 16 Days ----------------------> 20 Days ----------------------> 21 Days

kinda fuzzy feet. increased FAE now



2. GT
grains inoculated: 08.06.
bulk mix: 06.07.


After...  0 Days  ----------------------> 4 Days ----------------------> 10 Days ----------------------> 13 Days ----------------------> 14 Days ----------------------> 18 Days

Looks like Contam here :-( but will wait and see what happens... any suggestions?

Will a tub with only two latches instead of four work with this tek?

I second proxyy's question, I have two, 2 latch 66 qt's and when stacked with lids flipped it seems there is a good bit less area on the sides for FAE. Couldn't find the 4 latch containers  :facepalm3:

I should make a grow log, but I didn't take enough pictures early.

Puerto Rican from a spore syringe to oats, then g2g and four tubs to try and get some good genetics mixed up and will clone from there.

I know it will take longer to colonize the substrate but my agar was not cooperating so I figured screw it.

Using Bod's oat tek and spawned ez mode to 100% coir.

1 qt spawn to ~4 qt coir for three of these and one has 2 qt spawn
This is after ~36 hours

I could be wrong, but I would look at it from this angle. How big are the latches? If you want to create an approximate to compare to the Sterilite tubs I'd look at the relative sizes of the latches.

I know this is an unmodified tek, but if it was me I would probably take a file or dremmel and sand down two extra 'latch spots' like 1mm deep to give that extra oompfh

Good luck man I’m all for spores to grain if you’ve got a decent syringe but then doing g2g and using a low spawn ratio is really gonna stack the deck against you.

Thank you :smile:

I totally agree, I am stacking the deck against myself. Without getting into too many details, this was just one of those situations where you can either cut your losses and do nothing or gamble and hope for the best.

Either way, it's going to be a fun science experiment

Hey Bodi!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, what if I’m using brf cakes can I shred those into the coir???

Yeah tried that. The lid to pc is a couple inches from closing when I stack the last 3. Maybe my jars are different. Thank you for the reply though.

Hi guys, just looking for some feedback.

I'm 8 days into substrate colonization. Lots of condensation on the sides and lid but the upper surface of the coir looks pretty dry. Is there anything I should be doing? Also, water is running down the sides and pooling a bit around the edges (darker color in photo).

Info: 32qt tub,
approx 2:1 coir/spawn ratio,
6500 deg. 1600 lumen fluorescent light sitting on lid,
Lid rightside-up, edge lifted at one end to provide slight crack.

Thanks!
