Looking for help with bods shoebox tek
    #25945405 - 04/20/19 10:02 AM (5 years, 8 months ago)

So I have a shoebox ready to go but I feel like a grocery bag doesn’t keep out contaminated what is an alternative i can use as a substitute for a shoebox?

Theres no way to keep out "contaminants" when birthing. You're exposing the sub and spawn to open air. As long as your spawn is fully colonized, and you pasteurized your sub, the myc will outgrow anything that would contaminate your grow from the outside.

Contaminants in this stage come from having dirty(already contaminated) spawn.

We provide fae(fresh air exchange) at all times once  tubbed, you're not keeping anything airbourne out no matter what you do and its not needed.

If you'd like an alternate to using a bag, just flip your lid. If your fruits grow larger than the base of the tub, they will simply push your lid up as they grow.

Alternatively, you could get a second shoebox bin and flip it upside down to stack it on your spawned one( dub tubbing)

A bag is fine though. Some people just leave the lid snapped and flip it if the fruit start getting close to the top. Shoebox is very set and forget.

Hey thanks for the help. I’m a little concerned because I have one shoebox already with the grocery bag and this is a bit grey showing up here. What would this be?

I'm not too sure, its hard to tell from that picture. Are you misting? looks like damp myc to me but I'm not familiar with contaminants. Maybe someone else can give you a better opinion.

sub looks super wet IMO

That's drenched.

The bag doesn't keep contaminants out. There's no reason to keep contaminates out at this stage

Drenched meaning wet past field capacity.

So replace with new bag with less misting this time? I can still save this one?
