B+ Monotub Looking Sexy (Update w/pics)
    #23143024 - 04/22/16 12:43 AM (8 years, 8 months ago)

Hey there fam,

Been a while since I've posted, so I thought I'd show you my day 7 colonizing mono.
MS Syringe > WBS > Manure. 107qt tub. 3.5" depth. 1:1.6(ish) ratio.





Ready to fruit soon, wouldn't you say? :vibin:
Thought about jumping the gun and putting into fruiting mode, but I think I'll be patient and let it finish doing its thing. If any other experienced growers could give me some input and their two cents that would be excellent and much appreciated.

you could fruit it now id say.

looks a tad dry which is why some of it may not be colonized.

It shouldn't be. I've opened the lid and the humidity and co2 hit me like a brick wall to the face, although I realize that actually has nothing to do with the sub itself. I actually made it more on the wet side and is growing nicely and quite fast in comparison to tubs I've done in the past.

Btw, I'm seeing knots and little "puff balls" - spherical in nature as you can see in the pics, especially the second. Maybe one more day won't hurt. Thanks for the input! It's been a while.

Btw, how can I check to see if my sub actually is dry while also not trying to provoke it in this colonization process?

Day 9:



Should I go ahead and induce fruiting conditions? Looks strong to me, but it would be nice to have some opinions of other experienced growers. It's been a little while for me.

Thank you! Put into fruiting mode yesterday and that last bit of colonization finished this morning when I woke up. This looks promising to me. Thanks for the reassurance, just what I needed!

Bump.

I mist the surface the day after I fruited as the top of the sub looked a tad dry. It is still sparkling with water from that. Fan is pointed near the tub on low and took a little more polyfil out of one top hole. Should I be aiming to have the surface dry and replace with moisture on a more frequent basis or was 3 days post misting with water sparkling on the top of the sub the better route? TC's, feel free to chime in. :smile:

I'm no pro but I don't think you want a fan pointed at a mono.
Looks great man ✌

I've read multiple times that's not what you want. However, I did read a thread where RR recommended taking the top polyfil out and also cracking a window (which I've also done, besides the polyfil part). I just don't want the sub to get too dry while I'm away during the day, so I'm trying to play it safe, but I suppose that means nothing if it's not correct.

And ty for the compliment. It is beautiful and there is a little knotting in some spots.

Update:

Few pins, and lots of knotting around the edges. The knotting is starting to creep in to the middle. I think I over misted at one point, so I opened it up and let the fan run for a bit.



Do you think this will benefit from a late casing of straight verm? I'd like to get the microclimate right and doesn't seem to be the case in the middle. Some dry verm might also help soak up any standing water left and then I can lightly mist accordingly. If this is a good idea, how deep of a casing do I need? Thanks.

Update:

Here are some, but there are tons of pins under the verm - it's a thicker layer.

For some reason the pics aren't posting. Here's the tub today. Tons of pins under the verm all on top. It's gonna be a beauty when all is said and done. :yesnod:

Thanks everyone! Came home to this and there are still tons of pins and primordia under the verm, took a picture where I moved some verm out for you all to see. I've used the same vendor for some of my past grows and these suckers are def potent, can't wait to give em a go.

Late casing of straight verm. I'd say it's about 1/4" thickness across. I have to move some verm out of the way just to find more pins, but this morning some of them have started to surface. I'm pleased thus far. Lots of clusters on the edges where my knots and pins originally started before the casing. Hoping to get more action in the middle of the sub from the casing. Thanks for checking in, everyone!

This morning:









:stonedjerk:



I noticed a bit of fuzzy feet at the base of some, not a lot - figured it could be due to the verm so I've opened up my top holes a bit more.

I have 6 jars I just G2G last week of Ecuadors from a stalled jar and they are doing superb. About to do another mono this size for them as well. Thinking I'll use more sub to make it deeper. Do you late case or case as soon as your fruit? I feel like if I had done the latter, my pinset would be even better than it is now.
