I use scissors or a knife. Some people twist and pull

I would lift the whole sub out by the sides or corners of the liner if you can and then set it on a clean surface, then you can access the fruits alot easier. 
Awesome job man! Purrrdy....... What variety?

Nice tub!
Just try not to tear up big chunks of the substrate if you can help it. I use a knife sometimes , other times I twist

I figured, just making sure.
These are PC Escondido. I went agar -> isolation (like 4 transfers) to rye berries -> coir/hpoo/verm/gypsum mix. I used bucket tek. That bucket tek makes life soooo much easier. I have 4 other tubs like this. I had 1 tub get mold, because I didn't properly mix the bulk substrate. The other tubs look good too, they're just starting to pin.
I still cannot get Pan Cyans to grow on my hpoo, they just don't grow on my shit! (literally) I think it's sub-par horse poo.

I like using 3 mil clear plastic dropcloth from the painters isle at the hardware store as liners. One roll lines plenty of tubs and its only 3$. Its strong enough to lift the sub right out by the liner perfecfly

I always used Rubbish bags lol. Guess whose levelling up his game (i wouldn't go for clear, opt for black) 
We used to open the rubbish bag, fold over the sides to make it thinker/darker at the base level and allowing more light in the top area to stop side pinning. Once the Mono is spent we pull out the bag and throw away. I like Easy cleanup jobs.
Looks like the hobby has grown and gotten much better, looking forward to levelling up my teks.

I would blame the bucket tek'd hpoo. Not a poorly mixed sub.
