I don't know what in the actual fuck is wrong with this Maz culture and i don't even wanna know at this point. I am just gonna burn all the dishes at the stake. Casing and less nutritious substrate doesn't really help. 
Just to add, the flushes after do really great. It blobs out like this only on the first one and the blobs seem to suck all the water out. A lot of mutants in there too.

Looks like a hog for fresh air and water. Cultures that have genetic mechanisms designed for protection from insects and competitive organisms or perhaps plant toxins like terpenes or phytates may depend on regular heavy rain to "wash" the enzyme and antimicrobial load/buildup from the colony. Some cultures also are partially insectivorous and grain and coir alone are not enough. Cubes with mixed genetics that conflict have trouble sometimes getting to a good homeostatic pattern. Some can't handle stewing in their own juices. The kiddie pool is for kids and full of pee.
I like some aspects of that culture you have and I think it shows signs of things I would think might be fun to peruse albeit painstaking. If you want a standard productive culture then this one will likely never be it. It has a style of vigor that is not common, or present in the current vernacular of understanding by laymen.
Have you tried bumping up the nutrition? I know, I know, that's not the typical response to this kind of thing, but what is typical about any of this anyway?
It'll be work with this one no matter what...

Yeah i am kind of sick of it at this point. It's under the same conditions as all of my other which do fine. It does have a vigor though, yeah, it grows extremely fast. This was 50/50 and fruited in 10 days. Interesting thing is that it does ok when fruited in jars without really opening up the lid.

On just grain? Higher nutrition?
Have you tried not top layering?

This is maybe like 60% grain 40% coir. Just left unattended. I've tried all sorts of top layers. Non. Frosting layer. Casing. Didnt do much difference. I did have it perform nicely with a, for my taste, really deep substrate.

This is really interesting, thanks for that.

Food hog meaning it likes high nutes or a lot of substrate (as in deep)?

How intensely does the bin for a monotub need to be cleaned? Ive been reviewing all my outdated processes the last few weeks and have a few of these ready to go. I generally just clean them in the hottest tap water my shower will allow with plenty of Dawn dish soap and a toilet scrubber, anything additional needed?

What did you find was outdated and what was it replaced with? Just curious

Been thinking about building a drying screen. Only issue is small home.
Saw this and it would be so perfect if it wasn't flimsy. 

Few bad reviews on it saying it's flimsy and a pic with a leg bending inwards (it's for drying sweaters).
Then there's me still trying to justify it thinking if a screen of grains could possibly be lighter than a wet sweater. Probably not.
If I could build one just like it that'd be awesome.
Or I wonder if I could reinforce the legs with something....? Oooooh
So it only appears to be the bottom legs that go inwards from the weight. I could drill holes in the bottom legs and have a beam of wood going between each leg??? I might be onto something here

I would hit my local hardware store and buy some PVC pipe and joints, and build it myself. You can choose pipe that's wide enough to be stable for your needs. You can build it whatever size best fits your living situation. And you don't need to glue them all together, you can leave the legs, for example, unglued, so they can be removed for storage.

For drying straw, sawdust, coir, grains, your mama, i use these kind of shit now:

They need a uneven surface to stand on, to dry out the bottom part evenly, or else you have to shake them to maintain a even drying out, like a jar drying out on top. A typical routine for me with wet grains is to just pour them into this, and leave it somewhere to dry. Or immediatly add dry shit like sawdust. Watch out for how shit accumulates at the bottom, it becomes sticky and greasy.
But they are fucking great. Im sure other people use even bigger stuff but using something like this really simplified things for me.
Like straw pellets..
Nowadays I boil halm pellets for 0,99 minutes, or whatever time it takes to make it expand, take it directly to a thing like this. If its SOMEHOW too wet, so easy to avoid, you just add some sawdust for edibles and gourmets, or some gardening soil or jiffy mix for your exotics works, or some of that sun dried manure I KNOW you all have lying around right now.
Then you give it a good fucking touch with your hands, you can FEEL the moisture levels if you keep training yourself to. You dont need to fuckign weigh anything, because you can tell, by the feel of your hand and the training of your eyes to know what to look for.

That I shall! I'm not that much a DIY guy so I didn't even think of that. Thanks dude

That's cool and all but nothing beats a sheet of plywood at a slight angle for drying grains. The smooth type not OSB type.
