1000th Post!!!
What a Long Strange Trip its Been! 
Hey everyone! I've seemed to have ran into a contam that I haven't been able to escape for a few tubs now. I believe it is verticillium.
I'm using 2/3 coir and 1/3 verm. in 56qt tubs. The basic monotub set up. The holes are 1 & 1/2" in diameter. The 2 top holes have no micropore tape (wide open). The four bottom holes have 1 layer of micropore tape.
It seems that the contam is due to too high humidity. I have fuzzy feet galore.
How can I get the humidty down? Removing all tape drives out clusters of shrooms near the open holes.. so I'm not sure thats the answer. Maybe widen the holes another 1/4"? Idk. 🤦♂️
Here are the pics. It had grown on about 6 mushrooms in total in a couple different spots of the tub.

This is the tub for reference...

This is the micropore tape I'm using...

Also... since this is post 1000. Here are some pictures of some past endeavors while I've been lurking in the background.

Cheers!

Awesome. Im gonna use the search function and see if I can read up on what causes it and how to get rid of it.
If I don't find anything I'll be back.
Thanks Munch!

There doesn't seem to be much info on how to combat pseudomonas bacteria. I've been hydrating my coir/verm mixture with less and less water thinking I may have been going over field capacity resulting the tubs being to humid.
I think I'm also going to widen the bottom holes a bit. Thats all I can think to do.
