why are there so few mushrooms?
Just a few mushrooms after 40 days of colonization and fruiting. its a 21-gallon monotub with 1:3 ratio, Rye, Coir, Verm & Gypsum. I followed Franks 12 steps to Shrooming and his pasteurization tek to the letter.
My monotubs have 6 1,5 inch holes, two on each of the long sides and one at the top of the short side of the tub. Each tub has a black painters plastic liner.
My spores are Cubensis B+
I don’t use casing. The tubs are at 95% -100% humidity. I have a fan pointing at a wall near the tubs and its on 24-7. And i fan the tubs twice a day. Room temp is 75 F.
Anybody know what’s wrong?

Looks a bit dry how often did you spray? Could be why there's not much pinning

Could be a number of things. Firstly, constant 95-100% humidity means that there isn't nearly enough FAE happening for sufficient evaporation, which in the end is a major pinning trigger. Do not mistake fanning and the use of a fan for FAE. Fans only dry shit up and manually fanning X times a day does nothing in terms of FAE. Ditch both those practices and just dial your polyfill to allow more air in, it's all you will ever need. I notice that in summer, I need my poly to be much looser.
While a casing layer isn't necessary, it's definitely beneficial. It's much easier to get better pinsets with a slightly colonized casing layer. 40 days is a while as well, I would just start working on my next grow if I didn't get what I wanted after all that time.

That one used straight coir as a bulk sub. You haven't been here long but surely it's enough to realize that you can just start copy and pasting your past posts and answer like 90% of the questions at any given time The stupid shit that perseveres is astonishing. You answer the same outdated shit 6 times a day sometimes.

Actually, it's the other way around. Not that it matters anyway, you can do the poly any which way you like, all it matters is the amount of air that is let through. I prefer medium poly in all the holes, easier to have everything the same density.

Lol very true I'd have 1000 posts in no time with just a few copy and pastes of a few answers for the same questions constantly asked
