Update, day 10 after being thrown into the tub, pics at the bottom. Still taped up, lot of condensation on the sides of the tub. Air in the tub is moist and very mushroomy and earthy smelling; no sweetness, spoiled or off smelling but I'm wanting some expert eyes on the growth.
Now, been reading about keeping the tub taped up for a longer period and it seems like it's a mixed crowd... some people say it leads to more potent/bigger fruit and others saying you get minimal fruit. Any additional thoughts to this?
I may be more comfortable putting it into fruiting mode after the 19th (5'ish days from now) as I'm going to have some contractors coming in and out of the house doing some work and don't want to put in the polyfill just to throw it in the back of a closet where there may be minimal airflow around it.. But.. if that won't hurt it none..
Regardless, would like to know expert opinions either way.
Thanks.

And you're the pro.
First couple days being in a closet going to hurt it any? Again, worried 'bout airflow.
Thanks C.

Looks like it's starting to form knots already.

Alright, you fine gentleman. Pictures below.
Got my tub just like I like my woman, loose up top, tight on the bottom.
Used FrankHorrigan's "How to dial in your monotubs like a boss" guide to get my rig setup. Top ones are just enough to stay in, almost falling out. Bottom ones are tight as fuck.
I think I asked before, but, what's a general time line to first flush after this? Again, I realize there's a lot of variables in play.
Secondly, can anyone point out a specific potential "knot"? I tried using the Search function and couldn't find anything specific or anything that looks similar.. Different strains/genetics maybe.

Nice stuff, thanks.
It's been 16'ish hours since I put in the poly and shit is happening. First, there's what I suspect to be pins forming already in about 6 spots (this is my own uneducated guess based on others pictures) and what you've identified has knots has greatly increased in density all over, but specifically in the corners.
My tub has moisture beads on the walls except around the loose filled holes, there's a good 1-1.5" dry ring around them and about a 1/8 - 1/4" dry ring around the bottom tightly packed holes.
No pictures yet, will have to try to grab some later today. I'm excited, had to share.
This is fun shit.

Hello ladies and gents..
Day 5 after putting the tub into fruit mode, it's now out of the closet so hoping it may help accelerate a little. Pics below.
There's a ton of .. Pins? I think. They're everywhere.
If I've read correctly, harvest time is right before or just when the veil breaks, correct?
Thanks!

Yeah if its tight, your top should be fairly loose. But how tight is the bottom? If its been like that for 5 days it doesn't seem enough air is coming through

Bottom is as tight as I could make it (seems most of what info I could find was there's no such thing as "too tight".)
Top could likely be loosened up a little, but not much.

Idk man I think there might be a thing as too stuffed by how it looks lol
I never have to mess with my monotubs so I don't have much trouble shooting advice, maybe a tc can come drop some knowledge bombs
where is the tub now? I know you said you took it out of the closet but maybe its against a wall or something?

It's in the middle of a room now that averages 68 - 72F degrees with a 7000K adjustable light set to 6500K 12/12.
I did adjust the poly last night, both top and bottom holes, to allow a bit more airflow.. I'm guessing it'll take a day or so to see the impact?
Thanks.

Just checked on them since adjusting the poly - I'd say they're about double the size in girth and maybe 25%'ish taller.
Some have pronounced caps starting to form. Looks like a garden of peni. Will wait for tonight to take some pictures to get a good 24 hour comparison.

Update: 12 hours shy of 7 days since going into fruiting conditions. Pictures below.
Not a huge difference since last night, moisture is clinging to the walls but since adjusting the poly there's not a lot of moisture beads around the poly holes. There's some dew-drops on the surface of the substrate but nothing off colored, all clear. Smells less like soil and more like mushrooms, but still earthy.

Earthy smell is often a sign of trich. Those pins look a bit like trich pins as well.
