You will figure it out as you go man.  Trust the mushrooms, they know how to take care of themselves pretty well.  You are thinking way too hard.  Trust yourself too, you gotta sometimes just go with your gut.  Use this picture as a tool.  I didn't mist this tub once:

Yeah I knew you were doing that (misting and fanning at least 6 times a day), just wanted you to clarify what you did to keep a record for people to see.

It's your first tub and quite impressive considering that, but it's not looking decent at all... it could have looked really decent though, probably a hell of a flush with taller and healthier looking fruits, but unfortunatly it's looking arid af due to operator error.

Trust the plastic box and the mycs ability to keep good conditions for you. You (or anyone else) are fucking horrible at that.

A tub is not a cake in a SGFC that you gotta mist, this is truly set and forget or mostly. You shouldn't be misting your tub if you did everything correctly in the first place. You see the surface matted? That's from so much misting and drying, misting and drying... that's the way myc has to protect itself against the assault and it ruins what could otherwise have been a good and moist pinning platform.

If you think you ain't gonna be able to scrap what you've read so far about misting and fanning, like it's really ingrained in your brain already and you are gonna keep doing it no matter what, at least add a non-nutritious casing layer next time so that you can mist and fan 6 times a day or whatever you want. The casing will protect the surface from you. :thumbup:







Im planning on no misting till after 1st flush on this next run...definently gonna go in another direction than this time..:firstladyofapproval:

Thank you, nah I just make it really level upon spawning.  Sometimes a top layer, but not always.  It depends on how lazy I am feeling that day tbh.

Voodo, enough top layer to cover the white color of the surface and to transform it into the color of coir. But there should be tiny tiny pockets of air between the coir, try to lay it very pouros, so that it breaths better. About 6mm is enough to achieve this. Don´t pack it down at all let it be something that´s made out of 2.77 dimensions if that makes sense. Not quite solid materia, but almost, you should be able to see the myc under the coir in some spots. Not too thick.

Dude just stop with the whole worrying about beads of moisture shit.. you are the cause of your grow turning out the way it is..

How many times are you going to have to hear the same thing before it sticks man?? I'm normally one of the nicest people on these forums but it's getting redundant now.

In your before pic the coir is still dark brown, you say that when you lift up your tote it still has weight to it and you've mentioned you touched it and it was still moist and yet you still grab that spray bottle...:obamafrown:

You have it stuck in your head that if you can't see these magical moisture beads then its dried up which just isn't the case!! You aren't going to save your pinset at this point... your mycelium is matted to fuck town and it's not going to correct itself, take a break from the forums for a day or 2 and stop worrying so damn much man!

Put this time and effort into starting over, a new clean state and if you fuck those up do it again! I bet you by your 4th or 5th shoebox grow you won't be asking these questions 15 times an hour, like everything in life you will get better with practice and time!

Rant over people!! Fuck what a long day so far :'(




...sorry man...i feel you...my apologies...i really do appruciate the help...no more questions for now...have an awesome day:bigyesnod::canthelpbutlaugh:

Those pics have knots all over the place.  Put them out of sight and mind, work on some more projects and check them in 5 days.

Went through this with a recent KSSS grow. I said fuck it, treated the matted surface like a
first flush and harvested it (scraped it off). Managed to get some fruits. The effort was
not worth it. Once the sub is soaked you're fucked basically. I should have started over.

Couldn't you just flip the sub if you over misted the top?

No, the whole sub was soaked through like a soggy sponge. I couldn't tell until it was too
late. Just looking at surface conditions, you would never know.

    #25103010 - 03/30/18 07:04 PM (5 years, 9 months ago)

So I was trying to just not fuck with my sheobox after spawning till I got a pin set but after looking at it yesturday it looked dry so I misted it today and there was some slight bruising. It's been 8 days since spawn and the area I got is being heated with a small space heater( blowing above not tword the sheoboxes). My question is that if I remove the lids and dub them now will that help keep moisture in allowing me to fuck with them less or will it provide to much fae and dry it out? I defiantly want to dub for fruiting just wondering if I should do it early?

I wouldn't.

I dub after a pinset. I think that's usually around 2 weeks for me after spawnimg
