outdated information * 1
    #24927398 - 01/20/18 07:03 AM (6 years, 11 months ago)

Hello all, I have a couple of questions for those who have been around for a while. Is using a fish tank bubbler for air exchange in a monotub an outdated method? Just curious as I am trying to read all of the updated teks and eliminate outdated information from my methods while dialing in these 2 Argentina monos and g2g'ing some Brazilian and R. Honduras varieties of cubensis.

Also about to start dabbling in more exotic strains, preparing to start this print of galindoi on some agar and go from there. Can I g2g this strain just as I would cubes? I've read the mycelium isn't as tough and doesn't appreciate a good shake as much as cubes do.

Much thanks in advance!

Skip the bubbler. Limit your searches to the last 5 years.

A monotub requires only the appropriate ambient temps and the heat/gas exchange caused by the myc

Right on, I had a feeling all it was doing was drying out the sub. Thank you.

Ziran had a thread on outdated shit. Those would be good additions or maybe a new one is in order.

Liners are a tool,  that proper conditions and skill make obsolete.

They are nice for cleaning. People talk about liners now like they talked about taping the sides years ago.

Go back in time eith the search feature.  Same excuses,  different 'tools'same mixed msg.

Ask any real noob.  They use liners for side pins not hygiene

Imo it depends on how long you let your subs go. By a 3rd flush I don't expect anything to be on the surface

:whathesaid:

Proper surface conditions and correct moisture content of substrate are what eliminate side pins.

Really? I once had a cased tray of golden teachers flush 13 times, all on the surface. Then, I thought it was spent so I threw it in a garbage bag, ended up forgetting about it until I walked by and noticed the bag was fruiting a bunch of massive mushrooms on the surface. They were a sporulated mess so I made chocolates with them and they were potent as hell. It did that twice in the bag, for a total of 15 flushes. Didn't know at the time you could get that many flushes.

I know how you do :thumbup: while some see you as full of yourself I've never seen you that way. I know you just enjoy debate and spreading knowledge. I don't give a fuck about side pins at that point with shoeboxes but in a mono I would prefer a liner for later flushes

I've learned to limit searches to the past 2-5 years as well.There's still so much outdated info here.It will work,but not optimal.I took a 12 yr break from the hobby and I'm blown away by the advances.I just learned the other day that fan drying/desiccant chamber is old school.I can actually use my dehydrator without worrying about losing potency.lol

Utsf and do a search for this day but 3, 4 or 5yrs ago.
read like 5pages of 'new threads'. Then read recent days.

I noticed a trend. Different 'noob fails' same rational.
the reasons people used gloves or proxide is the same reason.

'i just do because... (insert generic reasoning) '

Its like im stuck in a time loop. Year after year after year. Wtf:shrug:

Also, I was just reading another new post about fanning even being outdated in a SGFC. I'm guessing that doesn't apply to monotubs? Wouldn't you get fuzzy feet? I'm already becoming amazed at how many outdated methods I was using. Guess it really has been a while!

Another thing, do any of you still use long consolidation times still? I remember it becoming pretty well agreed upon that longer consolidation leads to higher potency and better overall performance. I have definitely noticed this to be true. Whenever I've consolidated, a single gram will absolutely fry me, consistently over the years. Like the equivalent of an eighth unconsolidated. I realize there are many other variables when it comes to potency/yield/performance, but it really has always seemed to work.

Also thank you all for the quick, informative responses. I appreciate how you're bearing with me on my endeavor to eliminate outdated information from my methods. It's been a long time coming, and I'm really enthusiastic and excited to learn all the updated teks and keep broadening my mycological horizons.

That's the whole point of what I'm doing. Trying to completely eliminate old methods, unlearn what needs to be unlearned and update myself with new info. Not really a matter of 'swallowing hard truths' or regurgitation. Just a question relevant to my situation. I am finding it somewhat hard to wrap my mind around the possibility that fanning is altogether outdated though. Like I said, what about fuzzy feet? If I don't fan, I get the fuzzy feet. I guess fanning does defeat the purpose of set and forget though.

Fuzzy feat is from stale air.  Great for sab work. How fuzzy are your fuzzy feet?

Best way to eliminate old info is learn everything, right and wrong,  forget it all and re learn by growing hands off.

Bullshit will walk. And real methods shine through bright as fuck. At least thats what i did cause treading water through the seas of shit is not fun.
