How to avoid aborts? First grow with 60qt mono.

How do you avoid aborts? Is it really just genetics? Been observing a nice pin set arrive on my first 60 qt monotub. Looks like substrate conditions are decent with moisture and FAE but I only used straight coir as a substrate and I imagine it isn’t very nutrient rich as opposed to CVG and HP. So we shall see what produces and what doesn’t.
I can tell you the pinset wasn’t very even in regards to appearing so I imagine I’ll either harvest over two days or harvest one day as I’ve noticed harvesting stunts the growth of every other mushroom I’ve seen other than a very small minority.

The best way I can say to avoid aborts is to provide the best conditions possible for spawn and fruiting, but even at that aborts are just a part of the process...it's gonna happen even with perfect conditions and genetics. 
Also, the grains in grain spawn is super nutrient rich. Putting extra nutrient additives in coir isn't really going to improve anything, except maybe a better chance of contams due to prep issues. For cubes, just stick to coir or coir verm....fuck gypsum 
Some good input about aborts on this thread-------> What causes aborts?

Sweet! Thank you. I’m also going to eventually try upping my spawn ratio to 1:1, see how much bigger the flushes are.
