Any new innovative ways of harvesting mono tubs yet?
    #28714901 -

Hello.

My monos are in the EZ pasty monos 66qt or something cant remember now.(4qt spawn to 13qt sub and 3qt top later = 1:4 ratio). 50% of the time, the sub cracks when I pull it out with my liner, sometimes not..

I don't want to use the water method to bring it up to the surface as I would need about 10 kiddy pools worth of water to do that, super wasteful.

Any special tools people are using to lift out their subs these days? I get super full flushes, so I cant really get my arm in there comfortably and harvest that way. Its hard enough to grab the liners amidst the vastness of fungus.

Thx!

I just dive in with a pair of curved scissors, like the ones used for dog grooming, once I get a patched cleared out in the middle it's easy to cut out the rest.

This won't work for the amount I'm working with. And then have to clean the coir off the bottoms afterwards

You can’t make room for your hand by plucking some out?

Can literally just shove em to the side anyway, what’s the worry

Never had an issue just grabbing a handful and pulling them out like quest said. I pull all my fruits by hand and use scissors after to cut the coir off, goes quick with big scissors and a cluster of mush at a time. That or use fahts  cleaning tek, put dry fruits in a bag and shake the fuck out of it to knock the coir off. https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/27613226#27613226

Option 3- If your flushes are really ungodly, take a tub same as your monotub, throw it on top of your fruits, turn both tubs upside down and let the mush support itself. Now take your fucking oscillating tool and start hedging the motherfuckers down and move on to the next tub.
