First monotubs; two of them; 9 & 10 days in; look ok? Contams?
    #27069988 - 12/03/20 12:39 PM (3 years, 2 months ago)

First two monotubs. First picture is one I started 11/24. The second picture is one I started 11/25. Both first thing in morning. Looks like only a few days away from fruiting. They look ok? See anything wrong, or any contams? Also, the second picture, the one from 11/25, looks considerably dryer than the other. One has condensation all on the side while the other does not. The one that’s dryer looks little more cottony. The wetter one was done with manure, and the dryer one done with coir. Not sure if that matters. Any help appreciated!

Can you take some pictures in proper lighting?  Can't really determine anything about the moisture content from those.

If the surface is holding tiny water droplets you should be good hydration wise.  The coco based tub will show an appearant color change when the coco is dry (think about the color of it when it was at field capacity vs. now).

Appreciate the tips in regards to water droplets & dirt color. Makes lotta sense. I will try and get better pictures. Trying to be cautious to not let in contams. I misted the tub w the coir in it earlier. Left the one with manure alone.

Pics are terrible but they do look dry from here, both of them. For the coir tub, how much water did you add to how many grams of coir? Also, maybe you should tighten that poly.

Alright, I took new photos today in better lighting I believe. The first one is the one with coir. The second picture is the one with manure. I tightened up the poly. I misted only the coir one yesterday. After I took these photos, I misted both.
