Have you had a cube strain that needed very dry coir?
    #27111267 - 12/27/20 07:50 PM (3 years, 1 month ago)

I am baffled by my Golden Teacher on wheat in 650g brick of hydrated coir.

I am adding 3 quarts of water with some very nice down to earth coir. It comes out lighter brown, and I can't squeeze a drop.

The tubs colonize okay...

What is crazy is that the fruiting looks like it does when the coir is too wet. Smaller fruit. struggling a little.

And when I made some tubs with a little less than 2.5q of water in the coir, I got fine fruiting again.

That is a lot less water than many coir teks. I feel like there is something else at play.... like my strain is consuming the coir, thereby making the whole sub wetter. Or something. It just seem weird. Any thoughts?

If all other conditions were exactly the same and the only difference was the amount of water in your sub then I would guess either genetics or maybe bad spawn to be the culprit. Was it MS or a clone?

Are you certain your spawn was healthy?

Sounds like the spawn is bacterial or yeasty. Pics are good.

ah, so if the spawn was compromised, then it might perform better if the sub was drier.

That makes sense.
