Automated Monotub
#27421940 - 08/10/21 12:12 AM (2 years, 9 months ago) |
|
|
I live in Climate Zone 10 (desert climate). I work a fulltime job, and have recently picked up the hobby of mycology. I elected to automate my monotub because I knew I would not be able to micro-manage conditions manually. Here is my set up.

I am keeping the relative humidity controlled between 74% and 78%. The computer fan delivers filtered fresh air for 5 minutes every 3 hours. I just harvested approximately 900 grams wet of Golden Teacher in the first flush. I have have made no adjustments. I only regularly observe to make sure conditions look correct, and assess the progress of the growth.

congrats on your harvest
but i dont think any of that is needed in zone 10 (or really anywhere) indoors if you dial in your tubs
a monotub is basically automated as-is, plenty of people have no trouble with them in zone 10. just adjust your holes/etc to dial in fae, dial in the water content of your sub etc, and you will be fine. you shouldnt even need to mist before your first flush
i would use that equipment to build a GH instead, fruit some pans or just run trays, because a monotub does not derive any benefit from it

Thanks, Yeah GH is the future plan. When the summer heat breaks and I can move my operation to my un-air-conditioned detached garage. Don't have the room in my house.

not really a matter of opinion, its a fact, i told you as much earlier in the thread
a monotub is the largely automatic production of mushroom fruits
a dialed in monotub is 100% set and forget. more automated than your "automated monotub" for sure. you mix spawn and substrate, put the lid on and dont have to touch anything again until harvest
in your setup you have to refill water and adjust fae and humidity timers. even if you have the timers dialed in you still have to add more water when your reservoir runs out. in any case it involves much more fine tuning than a standard monotub for literally no benefit
adding GH equipment (humidifier and fans and timers) to a monotub basically turns it into a Rube Goldberg Machine

the use of largely automatic equipment in a system of manufacturing or other production process.
Monotubs are equipment that are used for the production of mushrooms, this equipment, despite lacking electricity, is automated.
What we are trying to tell you is that this is not an opinion.
Tubs are are 100% self contained, self sufficient, self regulating, self himidifying, fresh air exchanging environments.
By properly hydrating your substrate at an appropriate depth you are creating a moist/humid environment. This environment will maintain the appropriate humidity throughout the fruiting cycle.
The holes allow for warm air created by your culture to travel up and out of the holes situated at the top of your tub, as well as the gaps between your lid; as the warm air leaves through the top holes fresh air comes in through the holes situated at substrate level.
This is passive automation, it is designed to not require active automation. The addition of automated humidifiers and fresh air exchangers actually inhibits the efficiency of the tub, I have never once saw a tub automated by the addition of some contraption out perform a dialed mono.
This has been tested and gone over ad nauseum for decades. It's not a novel idea. This is not an opinion.
Opinion:
Quote:
a view or judgment formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge.
Furthermore:
Taping or painting the exterior of your tub is useless, pins will only form along the side and bottom if you allow for uneven contact of the substrate to the tub which allows for very small, very moist air pockets to form. These small pockets are ideal locations for pins to form.
Remove the possibility of side and bottom pining by insuring direct contact of the substrate to a plastic liner that will cling to the moist substrate, preventing air pockets, which prevents side/bottom pins.
Plastic liners such as garbage bags will shrink as the substrate shrinks while transferring water from the sub into the fruits. This way the edges will not pull away from the tub walls creating an opportunity for side pins.
900wet grams is not considered a good first flush.
With a dialed mono and a good culture I expect to get ~2000-3500gr first flush.
My starting water is 5000 grams and I want ~70% of that transfered into fruit which is 3500 wet grams, subtract 92% water weight (3500gr) to desication is: 280 dry grams, this is a good flush.
At 2000gr: 2000-92% (1840)= 160 dry gr.
I would consider my tub an absolute failure if I didn't pull at least 1/4lb dry first flush.
A 900 gr flush - 92% water weight (828gr)= is 72 dry grams which is well below my min of 112 dry grams/tub.
These "automated" tubs never match the performance of a passively automated tub, my dehydrator is processing more water than what you have in your flush.

Can we give the guy a break and let him say monotubs aren't normally automated? Do we really need to pick that fight? Come on...
But maybe I'm just saying that because I agree a little bit. As someone who has built a few automated electronic devices, I don't think of monotubs as automated because they don't change state at all. Maybe "steady state" is a word for them since once dialed, they keep a constant good condition. (Except for that stupid condensation on the walls... welcome to pseudomonas.)

No breaks for noob technology, especially when posted in advanced mycology.
Edit:
We are not the only ones reading this conversation, accuracy and attention to detail are required for those who use the search function looking for advice.
When a new grower searches "automated monotub" they will find this thread. Automated tubs suck.

+1 monotubs are pretty much automated already. Taking something that is beautifully simple/effective and adding to it does not mean it is advanced or an improvement. Less is more sometimes.
I am by no means an expert mycologist but I consider MANY of the folks I read on this specific forum to be very intelligent and innovative. The title of this thread piqued my interest but I did not find any of the ideas within to be advanced, new or innovative. Plenty of folks have something very similar to this, myself included, and yeah... it worked... but there's reasons no one really does it...

@boomerbob what they are telling you is accurate BUT your system is not pointless.
you need a similar setup for running exotics. cubes are dogshit compared to most other psilocybes or panaelous. I highly recommend you run some tampanenis in that hoe brother

To truly automated that tub you will need a larger water reservoir so it can refill your humidifier. It has to be enough to last about a month. You can use timers or some sort of switch activated by low water in the humidifier. Don't forget the LED strips in the lid. Ambient light just won't do. Also timed of course. On the subject of humidity meters, dont waste your time with those cheepy ones. You want a nice one like this.

You will likely have to cut a small hole in the side of your box or lid and hot glue it in. But it will be sooo accurate.
Don't let any of these jerks tell you your box is too complex. You can keep adding and adding and adding and you will probably still get shrooms just like you would using a proven tek.
And if you ever tired of all that work or run out of money to buy useless nonsense, you can always just throw the shit an unaltered $1 shoebox box, shut the lid, and it will do the same fucking thing. Accept truly automatic. Because you don't have to go fuck with it.

Jeez.....
Again, a normal dialed in mono is already fully automated
When i make a mono i mix the sub, put the lid on, and dont touch it again for 12-16 days when i harvest a canopy. How much more automated can it get?
Meanwhile youll be fuckin w fans and water resivoirs etc, and will get way worse yields than anyone who knows how to dial in a standard monotub. So whats the point?
This is not automation, this is a rube goldberg machine
Dont confuse the fact that cubes want to grow so bad they will fruit no matter what you mess up with successful innovation

Well since you asked, I'd absolutely love a tub that bottom watered, drained the reservoir to remove standing water, and reduced air humidity so the fruit wouldn't develop condensation on the caps, nor be wet where they touch the walls. Or it might be enough to start active air transfer whenever the tub humidity gets above 90%. In fact, the OP's device would suit the bill for the last part.
I tried a lot of hole/filter configurations to perfectly dial in tubs and was never able to eliminate wetness and the disease that piggybacked along with all those wet caps. It's funny that we collectively think monotubs are perfect despite the fact that they're so mediocre in humid environments. Yet the humidity always drops too low during subsequent flushes. Intrinsically automated, my ass.

Lol it is intrinsically automated, you are just doing it wrong.
You are basically saying "they told me i could passively collect rain water by setting a bucket under the edge of my roof. Bullshit, ive had the bucket in my closet for 3 weeks and its bone dry. Im gonna automate this process by building a lithium chloride atmospheric water generator to extract water from the air via hygroscopic processes" meanwhile its raining outside
Why go to such extreme lengths to avoid learning how to grow? Especially when you still wont have results anywhere near as good as people who learn how to grow
blaming the lack of gizmos is just a cop out. The issue is your lack of experience/knowledge/technique, not lack of automation
Learn how to dial in a monotub. Its probably easier to dial in than whatever kind of contraption you are talking about, and much more automated.
What would even be the point of all that anyway? when i can pull 3/4 lb (12oz) dry off a single flush in a 54qt tub without doing anything but mixing up a sub and putting it on a shelf then harvesting 15 days later?
Im sorry but if you cant dial in a standard monotub you dont really stand a chance at trying to dial in an "automated mono," and even if you did the results would be no better (probably worse)
Doing more work for less results is not automation, its a rube goldberg machine

Pardon the interruption, but I'd like to respectfully add an old lurker's opinion here.
OP's grow is interesting - congrats on the harvest and finding methods that work for you. Enjoying the hobby, choosing your techniques, and refining them is what this is all about. The grow you shared with us was a success, in my book.
That said, the other opinions shared here definitely have merit. As stated, the whole point of a monotub is that it requires basically no maintenance. I wouldn't have come up with the term "automated" for them on my own, but it is not inaccurate. OP's method works, obviously, but it does certainly add unnecessary intricacy, and I don't see how you could deny that.
Finally, I'd like to make it clear that I'm not taking sides here. OP is right to be proud, and pics and ideas are always welcome. The reason that others got a little prickly so quickly was that this isn't really the right subforum. And refusing to acknowledge that one of the easiest, lowest-maintenance methods is essentially already automated was not a great way to start here. The experts could certainly cut him a little slack, but posting something simple and unnecessary (I won't go so far as to say Goldberg-esque) under Advanced Mycology is definitely asking for it. Be humble and respectful if you want to be respected. So everybody can chill, as this thread seems to have run its course. Just my opinion, of course.
