How is this monotub doing?
    #26865924 - 08/06/20 07:30 AM (3 years, 5 months ago)

Hello Shroomery!

I spawned some rice grains to a 6 litre tub with coco coir about 4 days ago. Closed the lid and let it colonize. I can see on the sides that it looks okay but on the top layer where I covered the bulk with some coco, there is no significant growth just a few bits here and there. Is it possible the top layer is too dry (I added it at field capacity) and if so, should I open the lid and maybe mist a bit?

Thank you. This is my first thread on this forum and hopefully not the last! :heart:

Welcome to the Shroomery :mushroom2: :mushroom2: :mushroom2:

The top looks red in that pic so I’m guessing the coir is very dry (unless it’s just an odd colored coir or some kind of mix)

The sides look okay. If you add a top layer after spawning that will always be the last part to get fully colonized but if it’s dry I’d definitely mist it up a bit. And get a little air going in that thing if there’s no holes in the lid already. Just leaving the lid unlatched would probably be alright.

Thanks. I misted and cracked the lid a tiny bit. Although I noticed after I misted, some condensated water dropped down from the walls and it's noticeably wetter near the walls than elsewhere.
