Im having trouble with dialing in at the moment due to it being 60+% humidity in my room and a fan blowing constantly....


I stuffed the panty hoss about medium tightness once this monsoon season is over ill be able to tell better next tubs i will have to stuff the bottom with just poly pretty tight its too late now



I may try with one i have 3 tubs like this and toss the others lmao ive had side pins but never this bad ive also never had this much humidity either its always been pretty dry so dialing in is being a bitch

Turn off the fan and greatly loosen the poly fill.  My ambient humidity is the same as yours, and that's what I do. 

That fan running constantly is what's causing your dehydration issues, and not being able to dail in the polyfill.  If you must run the fan, point it at the wall, or at least away from the tubs, and put it on a timer to come on every 1-2 hour for 15 minute intervals.

Well its my ac its a wall unit i put in but it has 2 options cool and economy.. econ, will not keep the shed cool enough it turns on every few minutes for a few minutes where as on cool auto the fan runs non stop but the compressor turns off at temp ...


Which is my other issue its so hot and with only 3.5" insulation i have to have the thing on 62 to keep it under 75 ... before the monsoons about may june it was ok i had it dialed in fine with 16 to 20% humidity

Woah. That's a crazy amount of pins. Kind of awesome! Maybe you can get them out of the container like MadHatter said and set the free! Maybe you could cut it up into smaller squares to get it out?

I want to try that poly fill inside of the pantyhose thing. Have you been doing it that way for awhile?

Also I want whatever strain that is. That's some sexy mycelium in there and it just wants to pin like crazy.

No just started doing it on these tubs its nice not having poly every where .. those side pins ill cut with a blade and pull em the bottom ones ill just toss with the sub they wont get much bigger ...

I have 15 more bags of spawn about to be ready so i will just toss most of these after the first flush to make room the cultures arent up to par ...

That AC is brutally drying the ambient air.  As far as keeping your humidifiers running, that might be a good place to start, but don't think it would be necessary to do so.  I think with some monitoring, maintenance, and timers the humidifiers can be dialed in, so you would be able to cut back on the amount of time you'd need to run said humidifiers.

I put too much casing on my first grow and got only side pins. I cut it out of the bag and this happened. Of course I didn't have anything else going and a bag is much different than a tub. I'm not sure why but they turned into crazy monster fruits. This was the only flush that they shrooms got this huge.

Yours had more room for growth on a tub side pins can still grow pretty descent but i brt that casing might of been too wet and wasnt allowing enough evaporation

The casing was also almost an inch thick. It side pinned in the bag. It was astonishing that this went as well as it did. All the other flushes were nice just not crazy monsters. I just spritzed and fanned em 4 times a day and did the best with the mess that I made. :stoned: I was also pretty amused by how the reflection of light off the foil made them grow in funny directions.

Ya maybe it was packed too hard i had a 3/4" casing and it pinned but one spot didnt due to it being too hard ..


I didnt case any of these well not with a real casing just left over hpoo/cvg the ones i cased with was with an older bag of mix i had and they triched out im pretty disappointed with these tubs/cultures nothing like they used to be im still getting a descent pinset on top but if all the side pins bottoms were in top it would be massive ...


Im just gonna have to play with the poly through these 2 months and see what works

Well maybe things will be a bit better when the season changes and you don't need the AC as much. :smile:
