Don’t ever bother getting a Martha tent when you can get a plastic tub that grows better and easier for cheaper for actives.

I'm glad I asked, I was seriously close to getting a Martha before you responded (and I read some other posts on the site). Definitely just gonna stick with the tubs.

Been tearing my hair out trying to fight the ol' green monster. I'm no noob, I've been cultivating with great success for 4 years now, but I'm truly stumped right now. So I'm swallowing my ego and asking for help.

Culture on agar looks perfectly clean, but I usually transfer again to another plate just to be sure. Grain jars look and smell perfectly clean and I wait a few days after it is fully colonized to spawn. Coir is properly pasteurized (I've even tried PCing it out of desperation). Everything looks fine and the substrate fully colonizes with healthy and fast growth. Then BAM, green spot pops up out of nowhere.

I just dumped my 4th tub in a row. It has happened too often to be bad luck; clearly something is wrong. Any help is appreciated.


Maybe something outside of your procedures. Try a different room in your house for colonization.

Have you tried steam cleaning the room? You might have a large spore load, especially if you keep getting trich; it kind of accumulates

Hi friends, sorry if this is a dumb question, but I'm a first time grower (long time user) and I'm trying to figure out what setup I should go for. In terms of potency, is there a major difference between the two options, or can you achieve a similar level of potency regardless of your growing method? I understand that Martha tents give you the ability to grow larger batches and have multiple strains growing at once, but those aren't really concerns of mine at the moment. For this first grow I'm more interested in just getting some potent shrooms that get the job done. Would anybody be able to advise me as to what direction I should go?


If you’re just growing for personal use, continually cultivating just a single shoe box will already be too much for one person.

I’d just like to point out that if you have central air and a high enough spore load to keep causing contam, it will likely be the same in every room.

Try an in-vitro brf puck grow or wait for a plin to get clean tissue? If your invitro grow is clean, you can eliminate your culture as the cause.

Good point. I am on a boiler system (no ductwork) so i didn't think of that.

After testing LC on agar, how long should you wait to see contam before you say it is good to go?

Hello, I am a new mushroom grower and I have a question about condensation in my grow tub.

The humidity dropped in my grow tent because I accidentally left it unzipped. It's okay now, and the mushrooms (still colonizing) look fine. There is one issue, and it's the drops of condensation forming at the top. The cover is fogged and there are water droplets are a little large.

TLDR; is condensation bad for colonizing mushrooms?

No. The most important thing (after clean spawn) are surface conditions.

No, condensation is fine. You don't need a tent for cubes though. It's likely doing more harm than good.

Did you try a small shoebox or perhaps a bottle?  I suggest shrinking the grow as much as possible and seeing if trich is there regardless would tell you a lot.

I have 2 quarts of spawn and I was either going to put them into my smaller mono (15"x 12") and make a substrate depth of about 2 1/2 inches or just put each of them in their own individual shoebox. Which one of those is the better option?
