Stalled production with monotub

A few months ago I set up a monotub with a spawn to substrate ratio of 1:10. My fist flush was alright but didn't cover the whole surface. It looked my the base of the shrooms were fuzzy, indicating high humidity. I have fanned and kept my lid upside down. I have had 2 weak flushes since then but most of the pins abort. I have tried rehydration with lots of misting and floating. Last time I tried to float it, the substrate seemed already water logged and wouldn't float. Not sure what's happening. I've done a lot of research but I'm stumped right now Any thoughts? Thanks!

All the nutrition is probably now dried and in a bag or eaten by you and friends
1:10 is a low ratio so there was never much for the cubes to eat in that tub to begin with. How much spawn/sub did you use here and do you know the dried yield so far?
It also might be too wet. If you havent harvested a bunch of mushrooms then a lot of the water is still in there.

Probably 3 inches deep of sub/spawn. Got about 2 oz dried.

Fuzzy feet is usually genetic or lack of fresh air.
If it’s been months I think it’s safe to say they’re about shot. With that kind of ratio it seems like you’d only get one flush and the nutrition would be used up.

How much grain spawn did you use is what i was really wondering. 2 dry oz is about what i'd expect from a qt of MS grain

Probably used around 1.5 qts of spawn. Might flip the substrate since it looks like the top and sides have exhausted their resources.
