Holy shoebox sidepins. How to salvage?
    #27124599 - 01/03/21 07:31 PM (3 years, 25 days ago)

Note: first and foremost. I do realize obviously my surface conditions are not optimal hence the sidepins. Running a shoebox with bag liner. Guess the APE likes the sides of this tub....



Question is how to salvage. I see many fruits coming. Albeit..... 98% from the sides of substrate. Shall I remove liner and maybe flip the cake on a wire rack or so and set on larger tub? Or? Confused here and I apologize for that. These are my first bulk fruits in four years. Guess I could let them cram together and shave the fruits off the sides when harvest time comes but surely there’s a better way.

I apologize for the noob question and wasting anyone’s time but man my dad and I sure would love some nice fruits to munch on off this!

Thanks guys!

In a unmodified shoebox. One spawn to two bucket tek.

Sub looks pretty dry. Just let them do what they're gonna do, when it looks like it's time to harvest most of them just fill up the shoebox with cold tap water and let the block float to the top, that'll make it easier to harvest the side pins. (As long as your tub is unmodified)

You can push the block down into the water to let it absorb some more moisture which will help with the next flush, and just try your best to keep an eye on it and make sure you see little water beads on the surface and mist as needed if it seems like the beads are evaporating too fast.

Good luck

And are you covering the shoe box with a lid? Unless you have this in a closet you should just be able to leave the lid cracked (upside down works well if it creates a small gap all around the edge) and the FAE usually takes care of its self that way. Apologies if you already know all this kind of stuff, just not sure how you're going about this

Read a lot on “waiting till the first flush to mist” but lying wont help me. I’ve misted every third day since two weeks in. Because i also felt it looked dry. But was wondering if those mists seeped down the liner and created an awesome microclimate? Frustrating man. I hate the liner pulled from the sub. The liner and shoebox are already a lighter distance apart. On top of the pins in the side of the liner. Mad at myself a lot for this mistake. Guess I’ll have some clumpy ass APE

One tek I saw said flip the lid. Then one tek I saw said just unlatch the lid. Flipping it caused a apparently dry substrate, and I wish I had just simply unlatched it instead of flipping it weeks ago. I’m enjoying the unlatched way vs flipping because I see much more humidity around the liner, then the top of the box has nice air flow and little humidity based on the drops I see in tub.


Sorry and thanks all for the help

better surface conditions will prevent side pins
