Quick monotub question
    #23636046 - 09/11/16 02:57 PM (7 years, 4 months ago)

Reading through the posts, and from what I understand during colonization of a monotub, all 6 holes should be covered with tape until fruiting. And from what I understand during colonization you want GE and no FAE, and opposite for fruiting.

The tubs I have are "gasket sealed". So I don't see how there's any GE able to occur. Does this suffocate the myc? Should I take the lids partially off? Just wondering best way to get GE without letting in contams. Thanks in advance.

If the lid is airtight, just break the seal on the lid and let it sit on top like normal.  This will be quite enough GE.

You can go the other route and fruit right at spawning, if you want.
Many cultivators have slightly faster colonization times using this method, myself included.
You want to try to stuff all the holes at medium tightness from the time of spawning to the time of harvest with a casing layer included too, following Azur's method :super:

flip the lid over so it's gasket side up
