I dont know what happened.  Maybe because I used 1.5 qt spawn for a 27 L tub? Spawn seemed clean..... hmm

No the spawn ratio wouldn't have done that your spawn was probably bad and maybe you partially sterilized or didn't pasteurize the sub well enough

I did damions tek 50/50 coir verm just with 1.5 qt spawn

Allowed bucket to cool four hrs, sprayed inside of tub with alcohol/h2o mix and let sit til adding my sub and spawn.

I dont like the tape over the holes. Ductape sketches me out a little coming in contact..

Everything felt like I was doing well , same procedure... I'm thinking about after mixing in the bucket, putting them into jars and PCing for good measure.

One time I didn't let my sub cool enough and spaced it out when I dumped the spawn well the sub was still warm to the touch so it had to of been over a hundred did it feel cool or warm ? The heat could have killed the myc

But that should be an irrelevant step really ...

If my coir verm was fine as usual,  I'm betting it was the spawn. One jar was a week older than the other due to slower colonizing.

It was definitely cooled down when I added spawn. Maybe too cool?

These 'Elitists' are some of the best mushroom cultivators in the world.

What they are telling you is that you screwed up...

You say you used "Damion's 50/50 coir tek"... nothing about his tek is '50/50'. This automatically makes us believe that you did not prepare your substrate correctly.

Which leads me to this point.
Your substrate looks like this right now:


This either means you cannot create clean grain spawn, OR, you messed up your substrate (not likely with coir).

You have neglected to do the required research to create a monotub.

You have also made yourself look like an ass.

No one here will really want to help out an ass.
-----
Luckily, I am going to tell you exactly what you should do...in order.

1. Burn your current grow with fire.
2. Follow all teks to a 'T' and do not cut corners and do not deviate.
(Check out Trusted Cultivators signature area for links that will help you immensely.) Or (Use the search button).
3. Post your grow and ask for feedback on your grow with an open mind and don't insult the people that give you free information.
4. Be happy when you get awesome flushes like this:



This was my very first monotub... I'm not some sort of wizard, I knew nothing about indoor grows when I started. I simply listened to the feedback of others and did a LOT of reading.

If you're serious about this, you need to do more on your end to make it work.

We're here to help you, not to be insulted.

:whathesaid:

Picture in my avatar was my first attempt at a Monotub/cultivation ever. Went smoothly because I read a lot and then a little bit more before I started and once I stared I asked question the whole way thru. These guys are here to help you. Correcting your mistakes does not make anybody an elitist.

Every single post I've made has been met with rudeness and passive aggressive condescending attitude.  I never cried about it, and accepted criticism.  I post here for help also and not condescending feedback from people who have been doing it years.

I posted because this is the first tub I've had out of 7 that turned out this way. I do my research and take notes and haven't came here to post repetitive noob issues I see daily here. i want to learn , not be belittled by people on the same pathway.
Im not an idiot and I take this serious so when I refresh my post looking for productive answers and recommendations to see a bunch of veterans being sarcastic and talking to me like I'm a retard,  I find it difficult to not give it back. Im here to learn not be belittled.

Thanks for the partial feedback and help

I would say try and pasteurize a different way. A way that you know for a fact it's pasteurized. I know it's said that its not needed for verm and coir but.. Why not be anal if it can only benefit you. I think pouring boiling water in a bucket to pastuerize something is kinda sketchy. Use a temp gage and do it to the definition.
