Is my monotub ok? What to do now? Pics
    #26354113 - 11/30/19 03:35 PM (4 years, 1 month ago)

I am doing a bodhi unmodified tub. It is a coir/verm/gypsum sub with wbs spawn from agar. The tubs are on a 12/12 lighting. According to his tek he has fae from the beginning. I misunderstood how the lid was placed and I think a combination of too much fae and temps (80) dried out the sub. There was condensation on the side of the sub but the top looked dry and a crack formed.

So I lowered the temp to 76 and began misting. I had to leave for 2 days and I didn't want to have it dry out again. I thought I could put in colinzation still. It had been 12 days since spawning and was maybe 70% colonized. So I misted, cooled the lid and left.

I came back and it looked too wet inside. It has some yellowing and browning on the sides and on the bottom. It smelled better before I left and now smells maybe a bit like mildew? This is my first grow though so I lack experience to rely on. I've since read now that some don't mist at all before the first flush.

I turned the lid upside down now. I'm 15 days since spawning. Can someone please provide analysis and guidance? What should I be doing now? Can I save it? Thanks

I would say just keep misting and it looks good really

Looks like you have a bacteria problem thats keeping it from colonizing completely.  But there are some knots forming which should lead to some pins.  Keep misting isn't the best of advice.  You just want to mist enough to have small water beads on the surface.  If they disappear then reduce FAE.  Too much air exchange is probably what dried it out.  Continual misting is not good for the substrate.

You'll get side pins like crazy probably but keep misting. Spawn was bacterial from the looks of it, but it'll still produce.

I guess it could be bacterial and mold. It appears to be colonizing strangely without uniform growth. Something definitely appears off from my untrained eye, just based on what I've seen on here. I'll keep an eye on it and mist occasionally. I'll update with pics. That's my first attempt at growing anything. I started some other tubs as well now so I'll see if I did any better. Thanks for your replies. Any more opinions are still definitely welcome and appreciated.

I took a smell inside the spray bottle I was using and it smelled pretty funky. I wonder if that could have been part of the problem too. I thought I washed it out well but I've cleaned it out again now.

It was dirty spawn.

Just looked at your previous post of those spawn bags - 100% dirty spawn.

That bag was a different spawn and species  but thanks for the input on the bag. The bag I spawned to this tub looked clean.

I didn't read your post or many of the responses but that tub looks fucked. Sorry.

I guess fucked is to be expected on my first grow. It was dried out then over watered with a lack of fae. I'm still going to let it ride and hope to get something out of it until I see mold. I pseudo cased my next tubs with coir and I'm leaving the lids latched until they are colonized.

On the first tub, the surface is still drying quickly after misting. Do you think it would be helpful to pasteurize some jiffy mix and case to maintain surface moisture?
