Naw it ain't the coirs fault. If there was foreign material in the coir to cause it to contam it would have been bad when you opened the bucket.

Tub contaminated, I am still thinking it was the old coir/verm.  I knew the risk I was taking though, just dumped everything and cleaned it, spawning a new tub in about 2 hours  again, we will see B+ shrooms soon lol.

Just spawned a new tub today 9/8.

I shook 2 of my jars and let them recolonize 2 days back, they smelled fine so I am positive it's not my spawn...  I made up new substrate for this tub and everything too so if it contaminates I am not sure what is going on.  It had to be the substrate though, first time using 2 month old sub and I contaminate so it's my only answer. :shrug:

Bacterial grains often smell just fine and can recover from a shake, just a little slowly. That slow recovery becomes a mold vector and people are often reluctant to admit spawn as the problem. If I don't see complete recovery within 24 hours after a shake I consider the spawn bacterial or the culture weak. Jars exhibiting that behavior get cased and top fruited. My contam rate dropped dramatically once I started doing that (less than a percent).

Ok so this is tub #2 lol.

Looks a lot more normal. 

Putting into fruiting today




do you do a top layer and cover over everything or is that not important?

Nice dude :grin:

I've always fruited these with a casing layer at spawn, but I think it would benefit you to case them with 1/4" field capacity cvg. Mushrooms always benefit from a casing layer :shrug: just promoted proper surface conditions.

But that's not to say it won't fruit uncased. As long as there's constant beads of moisture it should technically be the same conditions as a casing layer would give. Your call brother

Curious what I end up with total off this first flush.  I believe I need to add more water next time when prepping my coir/verm because it was not perfect field capacity.  Wouldn't be surprised though if when I rehydrate the second flush does better :strokebeard:


Should I just pour water down the side of the sub or just let it ride out till flush ends?

Those are good for the remainder of the flush. Bottom watering won't really make a difference right now in a first flush with that amount of shrooms. Just let them ride out, maybe even rip out the top poly till they do, and give it a nice dunk with a good amount of water for several hours, drain, and wait. Second flush will take about a week or so after that.
