Between flushes: introduce FAE or wait?
    #26972263 - 10/06/20 02:13 PM (3 years, 3 months ago)

Last week I harvested about 40oz of PE from my 30qt monotub. I misted heavily (no dunk), then sprinkled some coir and verm on top of the substrate for a light re-casing and closed the top down, hoping that I would get an more even colonization than I had before the first set of pins - I had a mold issue for a few days but the mycelium fended it off pretty well, although resulting in a few areas where the casing layer was not colonized at all.

A couple fruits have popped up in the corner between the substrate and the wall of the tub (not using a liner), but the mycelium hasn't really made it's way to the top of the rest of the substrate. Should I keep the top closed and wait for it to colonize more, or should I crack the lid to introduce FAE and get going with my fan and mist routine?

First monotub - advice is appreciated as always!

Pe is IME a one flush wonder. You may get a few big ones on the second flush but they usually crap out after that. Again IME

How did it work out for you? Did you introduce FAE straight away for 2nd flush or did you wait a bit?

On my second flush with two tubs and trying out both methods..

I'll be shocked if the OP answers your question
