Why so many aborts? (with pics)
    #26953209 - 09/24/20 06:24 PM (3 years, 4 months ago)

Lately I've been having prolific pinsets that turn into mostly aborts, and I'd appreciate any help from old hands at figuring out why. Reading through years of posts has resulted in an answer of "pretty much anything" so I'm hoping for more specific feedback.

Details:

The room: held steady at 75°f, humidity at 70% with ultrasonic bucket humidifier. 1 oscillating fan, 1'x2' laminar flow hood, and a hepa filter run 24/7, not directly pointing at the tubs. Light is a large fluorescent on the front, and LED strip lighting from behind, on 12h per day.

The tubs: 6 holes, 1.25" dia, 4.5" from the bottom and sides of the 64qt tub. Holes are closed with a single layer of micropore tape at spawning (no consolidation time). From spawn to pins is 12 days. Bottom is lined.

Spawn: 2 dry quarts (1600g) of organic rye, hydrated between 36-40% (~800ml per spawn bag) inoculated with LC. This is happening regardless of genetics, as several different varieties of cubes are being used. MS -> Agar -> LC is yielding the same result as Fruit -> Agar -> several transfers -> LC. Colonizing is quick (2-3 weeks) and without issue.

Sub: 650g of coir, 2qt of verm, 4L of boiling water left in a bucket overnight (Damion's tek). Some have been covered with 2qt of 50/50 casing at spawning, some not, it has not made any difference either way. Roughly 4" depth.

Some tubs are worse than others, but all of them are aborting like crazy.

Thanks for the help.
