First Grow - Slow Progress - Many Mistakes/Lessons Learned
    #23572797 - 08/24/16 01:13 PM (7 years, 5 months ago)

They say this hobby is not for the impatient and boy isn't that the truth. I started off with 10 qts of WBS inoculated with Amazonian on about two months ago. After just over 3 weeks on of colonization they were transferred to 9 6qt tubs of coir/coffee and allowed to go for a week. I then cased them with moss/verm/lime and topped them with another tub for the dub tub tek. Needless to say there was extremely poor fitment between the tubs so after a week of fanning with no pinning I decided to go the greenhouse route. I picked up an ultrasonic at Target and ran that with a small desk fan for a few days trying to make my cheap Petco hygrometer reach 90% but ended over saturating numerous times. Hit the thrift store for a different humidifier and wound up with a Sunbeam evaporative humidifier so used it for FAE and the ultrasonic for RH. Ran that for a couple days till I got fed up and bought a CVS ultrasonic but with what I believe to be an impeller. Ran that and things started looking up pins in most tubs except the one that I lost due to over saturation. Ordered two adjustable hygrometers and found my RH was good all the time so decided to run the CVS outside and use PVC to pipe it to the top two shelves about dead center of the 4 tubs on each shelf. Seems to be working better but one tub that had pins is being overtaken by bubble myc so looks like another one bites the dust. I do notice that I have white cracking which I assume is myc that is accumulating on the caps. Only about two weeks into the greenhouse so we will see how things go. I've been tinkering with it trying to get it just right as I feel like the tubs are drying out even though RH is staying around 95%. Maybe I'll time down both the ultrasonic and evaporative but want to make sure theres enough FAE - apparently all that bubble and aerial myc is from lack of FAE.

Hmm ok I thought it was from lack of FAE liKe when you're waiting for the spawn run. Should I just pick what I can save and toss the tub or just toss it all together?
