Wax paper tek questions
    #27768543 - 05/08/22 11:23 AM (2 years, 8 months ago)

Had a few questions about the timing of using wax paper. I have two tubs. One on its fourth flush and one that is just starting to pin(literally one pin). Can wax paper be used on either or both? Can wax paper help get a better flush on an older block? And can I use wax paper when I’m already seeing a pin or is it only used whe I first start fruiting conditions? Appreciate any replies.

JUST.....DON'T......USE...WAX....PAPER......did you have 4 flushes off a tub without using wax paper? just repeat what you did for that one in the 2nd tub.

I did but they were anything but great. Got a lot of aborts and low yield flushes

Wax paper or any other thing like that isn't gonna give you amazing results. If the flushes were sparse, it may just be the culture. Go back to spore and try again. Bacterial infections can also cause poor flushes.

Ok and what about a fully colonized tub? Would it benefit from this tek in your opinion?

No. If you want a casing to improve surface conditions, just use 50/50. If your tub is dialed in correctly the surface conditions should remain optimal through the first flush without a casing or misting.

No it’ll just smother the top most likely.

You gotta learn how to dial your tubs in to maintain the right conditions. What are you growing in?

Max yield bins. Growing PE. I’ve heard they take a bit longer. Just wondering if it would speed it up/help with pinset. I’m probably just being impatient

Check out TedsDead casing tips for PE. Penis envy greatly benefits from a 50/50 casing layer.
