It's an old tek with outdated info. People used to tape the bottoms of tubs thinking it prevented side pins. Instead use a liner in your tub and disregard the tape.

Do you take your substrate out of the tubs and let it breath in the tent?

hey guys, I got a noob question here... why do we cover the bottom with gorilla tape? i see many cases where people put plastic bags at the inside of the container. What are the benefits of such practices and are they necessary?
Thank you!

People used to do that to block light from hitting the sides of the substrate to prevent side pinning, but that's an outdated method.
Use a trash bag liner in the tub before spawning. The bag will stick to the sides of the substrate and shrink with it, eliminating the microclimate on the sides of the substrate.

The downside of older threads, some info might be outdated. I must say I check the OP date these days to try and stay current!

You can add favourite threads to your own custom bookmark list on the site via the 'toggle favorite' link at the bottom of each thread. It saves necroing older threads that may have outdated and inaccurate information in them. As this one does by the way, being about twelve years old.

The only “outdated” information in the Tek is the suggestion to wrap the bottom of the totes, which has been discussed and addressed in the thread multiple times.
Just because a Tek is over 12 years old, doesn’t make it wrong.
I’m still using this method with great success and so are many others.
Sorry not sorry for another bump, mods.

Thoughts on going straight to FC? Have you adopted this or do you still split it into two stages allowing consolidation?

I’ve seen it with success with strait to fruiting. Have I personally tried it? No. Do I recommend it? Whatever works for you does. I’m not saying it’s right or wrong. I’m just saying I’ve had tubs molds during colonization and during the first flush. IMHO, I’m not risking adding more variables into my grow as far as contams are concerned. I still don’t have a flowhood and am running 92% success rate with only using G2G or the agar water tek.
Now...to go see what these kids are asking around Mush Cult
