Hey Bod 
It's Critical+. If I had to give it a drug grade it's a solid B+, I can smoke about 75% of the J before I have to put it down on my first toke of the day. High is real nice, calm and heady.
How you been mayne? You smoke right?

damn! chicks were super hot in the 60's. Awesome fashion & no plastic surgery.
Busy week ahead this week... 1)put 4 trays of AA+ into fruiting 2)spawn 6 jars of escondido to tub of cvg 3)transfer G2D colonized gym junonius oats to oak plugs that have been soaking for 2 wks. 4)noc up 4 qts of oats with p.mex chicon nindo from pastys (3 transfers away from original spore plate)
Also waiting on some PE to show on plates I swabed a week ago. If they show I will grab some quick transfers too...
Happy Holiday's y'all!

my first pins ever!! What now? Mist fan keep light on 12/12?
Read somewhere to pour a cup of water into the liner, is this a good idea?
Thanks!

Show me that whole sub please.
Dont' fan a monotub but misting is fine as long as you don't overdo it.
Keep lights on same schedule

shit i fanned quite a lot, ill stop doing that from now on. spawned 2 more 66qt monos.
the horse manure aa+ tub is not looking to well, it doesn't have any pins yet and it looks green and contaminated to me.
pinning b+
b+ close up of pins
more pins
aa+ sub i donno about this one?
close up of the green stuff
some blackish dots forming on the top layer

Alright... So that B+ tub, when you look in do you see beads of moisture all along the sub or only in specific parts? Try to make sure you have it all over and don't fan anymore. Monotubs are naturally fanned by the holes you made. Plus when you crack that lid to fan all that moist air comes rushing out and the moment you put that lid back on the climate has to rebuild itself, thus sucking moisture from the top of your sub and into the atmosphere.
Those black dots are "forming"? As in they weren't there in the beginning? That tub looks extremely dry to me. I just noticed you have all of your four holes on the same level?
Why didn't you do side holes higher?

That's the standard monotub design.

Nice dude, that mycelium looks thick and aggressive. Can we see the whole tub? A true monotub is self-sustaining if dialed in correctly with polyfil/filters, which means no misting or fanning ever. It's very difficult to get a tub dialed in that well though, especially on your first time.
Did you do the typical polyfil-stuffed design for your tub, or did you do more of a Doc_T style mini, which is actually a hybrid "shotgun-mono" design?
The shotgun-mono hybrid must be misted lightly around once a day, but it is usually never fanned. It uses a 2"x2" grid of 1/4" holes which start just above the substrate or casing layer. The holes are not stuffed, so it does not retain moisture as well as a true monotub.
The polyfil-stuffed design is a true monotub, so you have to adjust the tightness of the polyfil filters until you achieve optimal FAE without losing any moisture, which condenses on the sides of the tub and creates a humid micro-climate.
12/12 light is perfect for fruiting, keep that going. I've never heard of pouring water into the liner, doesn't sound good to me. You wouldn't want to oversoak your mycelium, that could make it rot. Maybe someone else here has heard of that though.

That's the standard monotub design.
You need those holes near the top of your tub, that could be an issue. The monotub relies on relative air pressure to create an internal air current. You need tightly stuffed holes on bottom, and loosely-stuffed holes on top. I'm not really sure of the theory behind that, but I assume that it draws air in through the bottom holes and out of the upper holes, or maybe the other way around.

(Personal Opinion) I tend to shy away from the set-and-forget model. It's advertised as that but I've yet to get the most optimal results out of set-and-forget. This means it still works but a lot of things work.
(fact) Doc-T's minis have a HUGE drying out problem which is pretty much akin to what's happening in that AA+ tub where it's so dried out the surface myc is actually turning blue, meaning oxidization is occuring.
If you're using that design and you have spare CVG I'd case those.

Well that AA+ is super dry.
Let me see if I can get someone else to chime in since I haven't worked with hpoo.

I have pastureized manure coir straw coffee gypsum and verm mix, can i case it with that and how thick?
Should i case it or just mist? The black dots are forming.

Damn, I'm doing that hybrid design, would I case it when it finishes colonizing and I put it into fruiting? Can I compensate for the moisture loss with a little extra misting?

Yeah I'd case the Doc-Ts and mist if I see the casing layer start to lose coloring. Coir/verm looks dark brown/black when moist and orange/brown when dry. Mist when dry.

How'd you treat your poo? What temp and for how long? Black dots forming are probably a contam, that tub is probably fucked but don't toss until someone says something.
