How to make a liner to avoid side pinning?
    #26668505 - 05/13/20 11:48 AM (3 years, 8 months ago)

All of my 4 monotubs have side pinning. Like 99% of the pins are on the side.

I'm gonna harvest this afternoon, and I would like to avoid this next flush.

I read about using a liner, but nothing on how to make one. Apparently it's possible to do it with a plastic bag.

How does that work? Should I just loosely put a trash bag in my tub, and somehow it will stick to the substrate? should I tape it to the substrate?

It would be ideal to start with a liner. Not sure if the sub will stick to the liner if you lay it down for the second flush.
Yes, a plastic garbage bag is what most people use.
Side pins happen when conditions on the side of your substrate (between sub and tub) are better than the conditions above.

You have to do it when you make the tub, then as it colonizes the myc sticks to it.

Grocery bags only work on shoeboxes for bigger ones you need to use trashbags or something.

Ah well, didn't had that issue before.
Guess I'm improving.

Thanks.

simply put a trash bag lay it out flat on the counter. then grab your mono and place on top of the trash bag. depending on your sub depth mine is 2.5in, so basically measure the bag 5in extra from the sides so you get your sides flush with 2.5in. then keep that as your template from now on you just use the template you made to cut the trash bags right. easiest way to do it it unless you put spawn and sub in trash bag mix it and spread the sub around and cut with a scalpel or something. so now that you have a template as long as your monos are the same size you can use it.
