Hey guys, just want to say thank you to all the TC's, frequent contributors, and anyone who answered a question I had with their posts. This is my first monotub grow, I have a run a few shoeboxes in a Martha, but that was about 4 years ago, and I decided to go with most (if not all) of BOD's Easy AF Teks (Bod's Oat prep, UnBodified tubs, etc.).

I got a few agar plates of an unknown cube variety that weren't super nice looking, but It was all I had access to so I used one of them and inoculated 9 Quart jars from the one plate on 19 Aug . I have Tyvek filters with tape over them, PC'd @ 18 psi for 120 min. All the inoculation was done in my SAB, tried to practice as good a sterile technique as I could, but it's definitely something I plan on working on more.

On 29 Aug the jars were shaken



On 4 Sep. 2 jars had fully colonized so i G2G 9 more jars (Would have stretched them to 10 jars a piece but only had so much glass)




On Sep. 10 I G2G'd 12 more jars then went on a trip for 10 days, came back to these jars



On Sep. 21 I spawned my original 6 grain jars to bulk using 600g coir and 50g spent coffee grounds, boiled 3.25 L of H2O and added it to the coir mixture in a preheated cooler and let it sit overnight.


About a week later


On Sep. 28 I spawned my second set of jars that I had G2G'd to bulk


On Oct. 1 I noticed this really weird looking growth on top of the substrate and started wondering if maybe all my jars were bacterial?

Said fuck it and let it go, decided I had been misting way too much, and figured that's where the bruising and yellowing was coming from, so I opened the lid completely to let it dry out and the next morning came back to my first little pin.


Couple days later on Oct. 7 they look like this





My second monotub has been 100% set and forget, and looks like this


So that's where I'm at so far. Definitely have learned a lot, continuing to learn. Big things I've taken away is definitely do not over love the tubs, really nail down the leveling and slight packing of the substrate to get even pinset and avoid side pins, and I am now all set up for agar work, and am actually really pumped to start that process.

Thanks for looking, will update as I begin harvesting and stuff.

Harvested a few of the first fruits this morning, taking a few prints for the practice.

You've got some potential, my friend.

Couple notes

That is one of the fugliest tubs i ever did see. But you got some magic so that's great. I think it is rather bacterial.

When you g2g, it helps to shake the jars and distribute the colonized grain. It'll take over faster that way.

Haha thank you. I thought so too, the weird thing is that the second mono that I spawned doesn't look nearly as bad as the first one did, and they are all jars that were G2Gd from the first round that looked pretty fucked up.

I took the second ones and stretched them and they looked better in the jars, so I guess I'll just keep running them because I just had to move in a pinch and don't have my work space for an unknown period of time.
