A couple questions for you guys . I had my first flush in my monotub a week from today . These guys are the only thing going on . Should they be harvested? I feel as if I’m doing something wrong with this second flush . It’s on a 12 hour light cycle , same FAE , same thing I was doing with the first but not a lot happening or is this what I should expect ? Theses are also GT’s . Thanks everyone !

What size tub? What sub material and how much? How much spawn material? Did you soak or mist heavily after first flush?
Looks like a lower than average spawn:sub ratio and maybe some excess moisture (dark aborts?), but it also looks like there are plenty of knots. Either way, above info would be good to have before giving advice.

Thanks for the replay . I’m using a 55 quart tub . The sub material is coco coir, vermiculite and gypsum. 3lbs of spawn in the tub . The first flush was amazing . I lifted the block by raining it with water for harvesting then submerged the block back in the water for about 5-10 minutes but backed off when I felt the block feel as if was going to rupture . I also forgot to mention that this is day 7 since first harvest .

3 pounds of spawn is around... 2 quart jars I think? If so, that’s a lower amount. People generally go with 4-6 quart jars of spawn in with a 650g coir brick for a tub that size. It’s not necessarily a bad thing, but you should expect slower growth and smaller yields, en be pleasantly surprised if that’s not the case.
Sounds like you just went by “feel” with the dunk rather than any particular tek? Looks to me like you may have gotten it a little too soaked, but I’m no expert on dunking. I’m just going by what looks to be some aborts (pins that have very dark caps and have stopped growing, they’ll grey over and get mushy as the mycelium reclaim them if that’s the case). Aborts suck up excess moisture in the sub to improve conditions for other fruits.
My recommendation would be to set up the tub as you had it, and let it do it’s thing. Be patient and remember that your spawn is low, so you shouldn’t expect as large or as quick results as people using double-triple what you used. Good luck!

Thank you so much. The exact tek I am using is GordoTEK for this grow

With ms sometimes they don’t come in nice flushes after the first harvest. I usually end up harvesting a few every couple days as they come in.

With ms you can get canopies more often than people think. You just need to have everything dialed in very well, even stellar genetics won’t perform in bad conditions. Gordo isn’t a trusted individual round these parts. There might be more wrong in that tub than just poor surface conditions.
