No Obie. Can’t keep surface moist. Need input
    #27105371 - 12/24/20 07:53 AM (3 years, 1 month ago)

This is 2 quarts WBS and 2 qt CVG in a 7 quart tub. Started tub on 12/6 and put into fruiting 10 days later. Every time I look at this tub the surface is bone dry. So I mist and fan a few times a day. Is this normal? Seems like everything I read says I want a constant tiny bit of dew over everything. I don’t have a fan or anything going on the room and have the other tub upside down with the sides flush trying to keep a bit of moisture in there. Seems my growth is super slow at this point and am worried about it stopping. Seems like most only do 1:1 in a tub this small, is it possible that the sub could be to deep for this small of a surface area? Any input would be much appreciated

I don't know a lot, but something doesn't look right about this tub to me.

It might just be from being so dry, but I suspect contam.

Do you know what the relative humidity is in your grow room?

you didnt tell us how deep the sub was... 3-5 inches is fine.
Is your tub modified? If so how? How did you prepare your substrate?

I used the bucket tek. The tub is not modified, and substrate is maybe 4inches or so. I have no idea what the humidity is

I guess in my mind does the humidity in the room really effect a grow like this if in a tub of some sort. Shouldn’t the water in the substrate along with the heat being produced from the growth of mycelium keep the humidity in the tub decent? I get if there is too much FAE but I could probably put a tight lid on there and still wouldn’t see any dew on the surface.
