water build up on lid of mono
    #23627817 - 09/09/16 02:30 AM (7 years, 4 months ago)

Hello all, long time lurker and first time poster. I have grown before with pf tek cakes and I am trying a monotub now. I spawned a week ago and it look good insdie the tub. The whole surface is colonised. But the growth around the edges is a lot more robust then the middle. It seems like because the mycellium in the middle part is getting more moisture from water dripping down on the lid. I accidentaly bumped the tub yesterday, and it got real wet in the middle. Theres nothing pooling it got re absorbed except for tiny droplets I can see. I dunno if I should take the lid though and get this water off the inside because I know it will probably keep dripping in the middle. Heres a pic, do you think I should drain off that water? Thank you guys, I'm a real fan of the site!

Condensation during colonization of monotub is normal, colonizing mycelium produces heat and this causes a difference of temperatures between the inside and the outside of the monotub; hence condensation.

If you're really concerned about this you can try to even the inner and outer temperatures by increasing the outer temperature.  But I think you'll be ok, just use the search engine and you'll see that many people had the same issue and their tubs turned out just fine.
