77 degrees, in a closet, with 12 hours of light per day.  I’ve grown dozens of successful ops there.

No insect infestations that I’ve seen.  I have had a couple of bugs and spiders crawl into my subs over the last couple of years, but nothing serious, just random wanderers.

I'm also still wondering if his tub has air movement; still air will breed contams.




Shoeboxes aren’t air tight, and I never had problems with leaving the tops on until pinning, then flipping the lids over to increase FAE.

Here is a grow log I did last year, shows my methods and equipment.

Oh, nice! I've read that log actually, cool project and good work! Were there any changes you made 6 months ago (new grain supplier, maybe?) that coincided with the curse of contams you're experiencing now?

Nope.  It worked perfectly until it didn’t, and it hasn’t worked perfectly since.

I didn’t change anything, and have zero clue what happened.  I’m still following the same procedure, and just tweaking a single variable each time through, trying to isolate what is going wrong.

What I'd do is change my grains and anything else I could think of and say fuck it to the whole 'one variable' approach, at least until you're back on your feet with growing successfully. You could be stuck for another 6 months if you're really strict about only changing one parameter per grow, so I say change it all and then work backswards; you can always pinpoint the issue later. I'd much rather be trying to isolate the cause while having successful grows (not that changing grains or anything else will necassarily lead to success, but it will get you there faster if anything you change was the cause).
