Actually, was incorrect..919g total wet 1st flush, because I also ate another 65g fresh <3
854g wet turned into 73g dry. 2nd flush is starting to come in, have lots of pins forming and some defined fruits formed/growing after soaking the substrate for a few hours the other night.

My first tray ever is pinning righy now:
 
Very nice, sir, hope it fruits well! I used 6 quarts of spawn with 6 quarts of substrate for my tub (1:1).

Awesome!! Thanks for the update. I'm very interested to see the stats of the wet/dry weights compared to how much sub you used. I just have a little 5 quart tray going, and so far it's looking pretty sweet! Here's a pic from about an hour or 2 ago:

Keep us updated on that second flush

Definitely bruised them a bit at first while learning how to harvest correctly, took a bit of substrate with them every now and then, but they cleaned up alright. Small fruits, in general, but lots of them.. Not a bad 1st run. Even the smallest of the small had their veils broken, like I said, I think I had a bit too much moisture and not enough air flow. Learning...
Here's hoping for a strong 2nd..





Nice work old nuts!

I'm not sure if anyone else mentioned this. But you were using a fan about 5ft away from you mono weren't you? If not you'd want it blowing up against the same wall that the mono is against on low and you want it running 24/7. Don't point it towards the tub directly.
Those fruits looked like they didn't reach potential due to lack of FAE like you mentioned, you can see the fuzzy feet which is a tell tale sign. Just normal airflow in a room I don't think would suffice. A fan is required.
For my first mono I grew B+ and they tend to fruit pretty big some of mine were almost touching the inside of the lid especially on the 2nd flush.

Huh??.... I'm just going off Franks tek which is what the guy said he was using for his grow. I guess it all depends on the amount of FAE in the room itself and if there are windows open providing airflow etc.
I just know by looking at the tub it doesn't look anything like my own B+ mono. I had giant fruits using a fan on low 24/7.
Unfortunately they were duds but they sure looked nice lol.
Probably more than one way to skin a cat so to speak

Frank ran a set and forget setup with really tight poly making a fan important. He also had a more reasonable RH in his house than I do in mine. We all need to dial in differently depending on our specific location and how much time we can devote to our grows. What works great for one person will be an utter disaster for someone else. That's why we stress reading a substrate to see what it needs rather than try to use one size fits all approaches. If I run a fan it dries my whole tub out.

I run a fan and use loose polly but I also mist my monos regularly. There are definitely many ways to skin a cat.

No fair enough, without knowing the location of where the OP is growing or the layout of his grow room and it's access to FAE it's hard to say what his needs maybe. But the fuzzy feet do seem to suggest lack of FAE
I'm pretty sure I'm located somewhere which I'm pretty sure has about the same climate as where you are however the issue I have is my grow room doesn't have a wide open concept making access to FAE an issue so I use a fan. Being the noob that I am and just starting out I don't yet have a vast space to do things yet but hopefully in the future.
In terms of judging things by the substrate I did notice things were starting to dry up during the 2nd flush so misted a little more and move the fan a little farther away.

Sometimes fuzzy feet are just fuzzy feet. With short fat fruits like those I don't think FAE is an issue. When you do use a fan. Be sure to point it away from your grow. You just want to create air movement in the room.

Again I'm just going by what Franks tek suggested which was having it blow up against the wall about 5ft away from the tub not blowing towards it.
Maybe for my new tubs on the go I'll try your method cheers.

Yeah blowing at the wall is cool. Just not at the tub. When I had my tubs in a closet I kept a small fan blowing at the back wall of the closet.

Word.
Yeah I guess in a closet FAE would be limited and definitely would need a fan running.

Haha yeah I'm pretty blessed to be sure. Wasn't always this lucky though used to live in Calgary and I know what a true winter is that's for sure.
Sorry when I said I'm pretty sure I live somewhere where the climate was similar I got you confused with another well known TC who's also in the Pacific Northwest.
It's actually been a lot colder this winter and we've actually had snow that has stuck around for longet than a day and sub zero temps lol.
