Dark grey caps - contam or excess moisture?
    #27012598 - 10/30/20 06:26 PM (3 years, 2 months ago)

Second flush on my first monotub and things are getting a bit weird. First up, a healthy fruit (they're RustyWhytes):



But there's a few that are coming out looking a bit... wet? Slimy? It's hard to describe:





I've also noticed some condensation on the stems and the sides of the tub seem fairly wet, so I think it might just be too moist in there and they're getting a little spongy. Thoughts?

After drying for a few hours, the dark ones look fine now, so I think they were just wet.

Seems like you’re right. Being too wet can lead to bacterial growth, but you’re probably not at that point if there’s no smell/slime. Whenever I’m in doubt I take a big whiff right at the area in question.

Smelled fine! Think we're in the clear. Thanks!
