Dub tubs

I had a 15qt bin with grain spawn/coco coir/vermiculite that I thought was kindof stalled so I put it in fruiting conditions in a dub tub setup, lifting the top tub 3x/day and under a 5000K light 12hr a day. There are perfect little water droplets sitting on top of the layer of starburst shaped mycelium and now more pins are forming daily in front of my eyes. It's incredible! I need some advice, I have to go to the beach Saturday for a week with my bf's family. I am going to take the tub with me by putting the regular lid on for the 4hr drive, then re-do the setup in our room in the house and hope for no invaders like mold or fungus gnats (my nemesis). Bringing a light and aphid fly paper and mister. Any tips on travel with a bin of mushrooms?

Just mist the top tub and leave it home. As long as there’s no fan blowing on it it’ll be fine.
There’s no reason to bring it with you especially when it’s a trip you’re a guest on.

Yeah don’t micromanage it like that. It will be just fine, like above mentioned, give a nice mist it will be perfectly fine. One day isn’t anything your sub can’t come back from. It will be just fine. And as soon as you spawned to bulk you put it into fruiting conditions, but with the lid closed and not introducing pinning triggers it will stall. But it’s still get small amount of FAE, most lids aren’t vacuum sealed. Regardless, your sub will be fine. Good job 👍 on it though looks good.
Also if worried about light for one day it will be just fine leave the closet door or wherever open so it gets light from the window.

No, we're going to be gone for an entire week. I am afraid it is going to dry out and the mushrooms are going to overgrow and there are going to be spores everywhere.

Not a good idea to carry it around. You don't have anyone to look for it? I bet you'll have a big 2nd flush.

It’ll be fine, maybe some spores but that’s not a problem. I have extremely low humidity and leaving the lid on or leaving it dubbed works great. Or even a plastic bag over it.

OK, my neighbor is going to check on it and I'm going to put the light on a timer. The pins are really small so I don't think any will be huge by the time we get back. Probably better not to stress it in the car. This is my first success in a lot of varied attempts so I want to make sure it keeps going well! Thanks for the advice!

Ehhh depends you can go from small pins to a full canopy in a week easy. My Amazonians just did in 5 days.

Usually they`re done in a week once you see pins.

Yeah i kindof figured that I might have to have her pick some too. I have one that looks ready. I am not sure of the mature size of the kathmandu strain.

Maturity is maturity regardless of size and Kathmandu has really nothing much to do with it as it can make big and small mushrooms depending on conditions and genetics
