I left the lid off, and stopped watering so much. Really the same amount. Of fae, but far less Misting. 9nce.it it dried and wasn't spongy, I put the lid on like before, and started misting regularly. So the large amount of very on top was deluding me. It was an illusion that the sub was dry, because very dried out easily, all the water from it goes directly into the sub, which was hidden from My view. Next project will be uncased, my. Little clone 3q tub.

All my. Other grows were straight coir. I had to try something new in order to learn what works best. Deffy not verm.

PE cased 50/50 (poorly I might add) in an unmodified tub. This tek will keep me from ever cutting up a perfectly good tub...

Its 50/50 - verm/peat w/ some lime. I wouldn't case any other cubes, but heard it is helpful with PE to avoid blobs, so gave it a shot since this is my first PE grow. I'm also planning to fruit my Tamps, and they like a casing as well from what I hear - so this was good practice. Only about a 1/4 to 3/8 inch thick - would likely have gone a little deeper, 1/2 or so, if I was doing my next tub. Substrate is 50/50 coir/verm. I'm going to experiment with all coir in the future...

Oh, didn't know I could introduce the light during colonization, is it ok to leave the heat lamp sitting on the lid or should i hang the light above the tubs?

No heat lamp should be used. Lighting is recommended at all stages

Hey bod, what's your take so far on my tubs? Anything i should be doing or not to them. New to bulk and the unmodified mono, but from what I see i think things are going pretty good. Thanks for all the work you've put in here, awesome teks! It pretty much the go to when pointing someone in the right direction.

I was just wondering if it's ok to do it (lamp sitting on lid) at this stage (colonizing) since the lid is on and because of the ring it leaves, would the heat possibly cause pooling from the condesation? I spawned to tub last Thurs 5/11.

Nope. And it creates convection currents. It's not much heat at all

I just gave it another misting. I've just tried to keep the nice little micro beads of water without it pooling, and gauge the sub moisture on the parts not as heavily colonised by keeping the coir dark brown almost black like it was at the end of the bucket tek. It's got that delicious strong mushroom smell to it, and no visible discoloration of the mycelium. Glad to know I'm not bombing the shit out of my first full run growing bulk. I need a better camera
