Naw he's saying that dude above doesn't need to put his sub in a mono or let it dry out like he's asking but keep it in the same general conditions it was in prior
You're good flying. Just mist when you think you should

Mad Season said: I always keep the surface glistening at all times if I can. This includes post dunked flushes. There's really no set misting schedule. Just mist when dry. Shine a flashlight onto the sub if you are having trouble seeing the glistening. Ya need a bright light for there to be glistening.
Damn now im confused This was my initial understanding, that i should mist whenever there arent little beads of moisture just like during the first flush. But i decided not to mist because of what the other users said.
So i should still be trying to maintain beads of moisture on the surface? I want to make sure im not messing things up now So far the idea ive been getting from this thread is that after dunking i should basically be able to not touch this thing at all until harvest day, unless it starts getting overly dry signified by a lighter brown color in the coir.
In order for there to be little beads of moisture i probably need to mist like 2-3 times a day like during the first flush. Should i just continue that?
These are pictures from today, about 8 days after dunking:

You mist when they look like they need it. Yours currently looks like it could use a couple squirts. It doesn't necessarily need to be covered in beads.. That moreso applies to the first flush. Just needs to be moist looking with no pooling water is the best way to describe it. If it doesn't look like it's glistening/shimmering with no pooling water, it needs to be misted.

I always mist as mentioned to create good surface conditions, plus it's extra water for fruits anyway.
You can choose not to mist and it will produce.
You can mist and it will produce.
Either way it will produce.
Misting never hurts unless it's done too much.
At the same time, misting less can also give fruits.
Therefore anything you have a range for misting that is going to be acceptable and produce fruits.
You don't want it too wet and don't want it too dry. Those create the extremes with limits on each end where everything between is acceptable. Everything in between those two limits is fine.
So when he said you can leave it and it will be fine he was correct. When someone else said they would mist it they are also fine to do so. Because both scenarios fall within the extremes of too dry or too wet which would hurt the grow.
I hope this clears it up.

Alright yea that makes sense. It sounds like as long as I don't go overboard with it then misting could only be beneficial. Ill probably start misting them again then.
Thanks
