Unmodified Monotub Contamination Woes
    #26734754 - 06/10/20 03:57 PM (3 years, 7 months ago)

Hi all. So I've been running unmodified monotubs and following Bod's Easy AF teks (for the most part). It's been a great learning experience so far, and I have been having some moderate success. As of late though, I've been running into some serious contamination issues.

1. I have been unable to get past a first flush as my tubs have been contaminating right after harvest.

2. Since that time, some tubs have been contaminating right before pinning (not good).

3. G2G bags (around 25%) have been contaminating with a grey mossy like contam. Although, I just switched to bags and don't have a flow hood yet, so that might be a procedural problem which can be rectified eventually. I didn't have that issue with jars...

So I have a few questions:

A. Am I going wrong somewhere in my harvesting technique? I primarily just wear a mask and alcohol washed gloves.

B. How often should I be cleaning my growspace? Some bad juju is clearly afoot.

C. Is this mold? Is it an FAE issue?

D. Are there any other preventative measures that you would recommend?


You guys are an amazing community and I have learned and incredible amount over these last months. Any help (or links) would be greatly appreciated.
