First Monotub: Bod’s easy AF

I’m several days into spawning my first monotub. I’ve used Bod’s Tek for everything except my agar mix. I’ve used his SAB, oats, coir, polylids, pressure cooker, and monotub teks. Let me know your thoughts if you’d like, especially on my humidity, fae, and substrate conditions. It’s always 70 degrees in my basement. I’m extremely grateful for this forum ❤️

Looks good. I would reccomend a top coir layer next time.

Thanks man 🙏🏼 I was reading up on doing that and I saw several conflicting ideas. I read a casing or top coir is a good buffer for too little or too much humidity but can have an impact on pinning with less water evaporation on the knots. What are your thoughts?

It's ideal as long as you hydrate your coir properly. Either way if you don't hydrate your coir properly you're gonna have a bad day. Check out Grow Log 2019 by filthyknees and LotKid. 100 bags of spawn all done with said top layer.

Ya I've been experimenting with water ratios and definitely stick to the tek. Lost a tub that looked like it was going to flush heavy. Also what temps do you guys run? OP said 70, I go 76

Gotcha. I’ll check out those journals now. Thank you for the reference. I used 3.2 liters of boiling water for a 650g brick of botanicare coir. Checked it for field capacity 24 hours later.

Oh man that’s a bummer buddy. My basement is always between 69-71. I’m keeping it off the cold concret floor for now.

I actually just finished going through it. I loved it! Super inspiring. I’m pretty much shooting for the same thing. I’ve got 60 2nd gen transfers I’m knocking up 300 jars with. Then I’m gonna terraform this area 😊

I just transferred those from master jars three days ago. After they colonize, I’m going to transfer those to 5 jars each. Then use 7 per tub.
True that lol.

Can you fit a single of those spawn bags in a 23qt presto? I was considering ordering bags the other day so I don’t have as many transfers. I’ve got two prestos.

Do yourself a favor and switch to bags if you are looking to go big like that.

I fit four fully loaded grain bags no problem.

That is a MAJOR favor to myself 😂 Thanks man. Do you recommend a specific vendor for bags and a sealer?
