Is it too dry? Unmodified Monotub
    #26552878 - 03/23/20 11:08 AM (3 years, 10 months ago)

Started the tub 6 days ago. Agar to grain, grain to monotub. Only used coco coir and 7 quarts of spawn some mixed with rye berries and whole oats. I didn't use a casing layer. The corners are starting to look pretty dry while the center has some water beads. Should I mist the corners or just leave it?

I'd put that baby into fruiting conditions; give her some fresh air and knots should start to form.

Ok sweet, thanks for the help. I'm following Bod's Unmodified Tub TEK. Should I crack the lid more to increase FAE?

I'd flip the lid (if it isn't already) to get those air gaps and that's all you should need.
BOD's Unmodded Tek is one of the best; stick to it and you'll get mad flushes.

Maybe your sub was slightly dry

Kinda looks like those corners didnt colonize fully yet

You can save some coco coir and just do a top layer after mixing. Might help with drying out.

:whathesaid:

A pseudo casing of coir saved my last grow after struggling to dial in surface conditions with an unmodded tub for a year with no results. It's still paying out dividends!
