Oversaturated coir in monotub, can see water from underneath. Can I salvage somehow?
    #26470373 - 02/05/20 02:02 PM (4 years, 11 days ago)

So it's my first monotub, noob mistake and my coir is wayy too saturated. It's a bods unmodified mono. And I just went too crazy on misting..

I can lift the tub and see the water from underneath.. is there any way I can salvage it? I can see the growth everywhere but the bottom of the mono. It's obviously avoiding bc of lack of oxygen...

Is it just too late? mixed my colonized quart jars with the coir on Jan 27th...
Help! Lol thanks

At this point probably best to just leave it be and get what you get. The sub will probably just take up the water as it dries anyway. If following the Tek, you would see that misting is not needed till well after first flush.

I feel like there so many contradictory methods and opinions. Between colonizing and fruitng, colonizing and fruitng at the same time, surface conditions with the mourning like dew to initiate pinnning, not letting the surface get too dry then the mycelium will mat... Etc. It's just confusing as shit

A long Syringe, the LC needles are good!

Before I figured that out I was going to use a cut to size double thick cardboard plate so I could tip it!

It's the Journey I enjoy!

If it's that big of a deal you could just drill a drain hole lol.

I Kno about the holes I considered it, I guess I'm just being cheap, trying to keep the tub intact so I can fill it with water to harvest and rehydrate for future flushes. I guess I'll try the syringe or cardboard tilt Tek.

Right now I have the lid off trying to dry it out. I just keep a light mist over the top once a day to prevent the surface from getting too dry

The surface conditions are universal though. Keep it glistening with beads once it’s colonized.

It’s probably been long enough that the sub is one block mike so you might be able to tilt the tub so all the water goes to one corner then lift the sub up just enough to drain it out.

Unless it’s a ton of water it probably won’t matter anyway though.
