So what the hell am I doing wrong?
    #24532990 - 08/05/17 04:39 PM (6 years, 6 months ago)

Ok friends,

So I just graduated to 66qt monos. Used the 6 hole model, micropore dialing, oat spawn (huatzel-something strain MS), pasteurized CVG, no casing. Waited for full colonization, pins came quick. Misted carefully, adjusted airflow. All bottom holes have a strip of micropore removed, and the top holes are moved down slightly.

Why are my babies so spindly? It's like every time I grow, I get worse, somehow...

I should mention this is a closet grow. I was hoping the micropore would allow for no fans and a set and forget...

No, no fans at all. I really was hoping to save on power and allow passive airflow.

Used fans in the past, and things dried out within 12 hours. Never used micropore

I personally like fans and misting multiple times s day . I always had airflow. I mist heavy I've actually use to put my stuff in the shower .

You see those bulbs of my coir at the base of your fruits? They want air n possibly better lighting.

It doesn't matter what i think of you...all that matters is clean spawn

Go to one layer of tape on your lower holes. Crack your lid during the day. IMO you need more FAE.

If you're growing in a closet, I wouldn't use a very big fan. Maybe like a mid-sized desk fan, pointed at a corner of the closet. Personally, I would use polyfill, but I've never tried any fancy pants shit like porous tape, so maybe I'm the newb there. Get a 6500k compact flourescent bulb in a round aluminum shop light, and set that sucker right on top to shine through the lid.

Genetics are a big factor in the long spindliness, but you should have a better pinset if that is the main problem. You should try a jiffy casing.

Edit: Actually, your pinset doesn't look so bad. I think you're doing fine dude. You just need different genetics, and more FAE.

I wanted to make a peat casing, but the pins came ridiculously quick

Once again stick with what's proven to  work first . I use peat on trays without a fruiting chamber .

You need more FAE. Micropore tape doesn't allow enough air in.

Don't skip steps like using a fan. If it dried out, move the fan farther away. Leave the closet open any time you can.
