That’s tote will do. Will allow for good substrate thickness and headroom to grow.

6. Now for the tile float. I use this to level and compress the substrate. I like this one as the length happens to be the exact width of the tub. Take your time. Do a good job. Don't pack with all your might, just be firm and pay special attention to the edges. I find that if I pack the edges well, I don't get sidepins at all and I don't need a liner.


Hey Beefy I used your method but now I have a monotub with side growth and also growth on the bottom. I followed your instructions so I'm not sure what I did wrong. I can see that one user above also has the same issue.

Do you think pressing the substrate even harder would resolve the issue? I plan to spawn 3 more tubs tomorrow and don't want to make the same mistake. Thanks in advance.

You know, Genetics plays a big role with this.  i Used to use a liner, But I really never found it to help all that much.  Particularly with certain strains. 
mazatapec specifically.

I still get a few from time to time.

Why? Plastic composting is good for the planet. Growing mushrooms like pinks on broken used myco bags and crushed computer parts in a monotub is awesome.

gosh i totally forgot about this tek. i should update it.

first of all, i cant call what i do "ez dial monos"

theyre ez dial shoeboxes lets be real here.

also, i dont use that tupperware thing to mix anymore.  what i do is this:

two five gal buckets.  one empty one full of prepped coir. (1 brick)

i take two quart jars, fill em with coir, set them aside.


i take the lid off the empty bucket, i put it on the scale and tare it off.  then i put the full bucket on the scale (no lid) and divide the resulting figure in half. 

i pour half into the empty bucket.

now i put two qts spawn into each bucket. lids on, shake the shit out of them.  pour into tubs.

the rest is pretty much the same as original.  i only use 1 qt to pseudocase now tho.


of course, you could just eye ball it if you dont have a high-cap scale.

Thanks for the tek info, Mr. Beef. I am a little confused because it appears what youve used were monotubs. Am I mistaken?

Also, I see the term ez dial used frequently. But what does it actually mean?

Finally, I am excited to use your Beefy tek! But can I scale it down to shoebox size? I am trying to keep things a bit more....compact, considering where I am. If I scale down to shoebox, do I need to be cautious of anything not mentioned in your tek guide?

Since it's a "just" 16qt tub he's calling it a shoebox(I think). Spawn to bulk ratio is 2qt spawn 8qt coir + 2qt pseudo casing(he has mentioned that his pseudo casing now is 1qt). He also said recently that to get field capacity he is doing 4,2ml of water pr 1g of coir.

Ez dialed monotub

You can scale it down, but if you want it to be "beefy" I think you have to fill the whole shoebox and then dubtub or fruit in a larger tub. If going that route you can check out stipe & cap's video here

OK this is great info, thanks! Man, there needs to be a translation guide for all noobs. It's hard to keep up with the acronyms!

So ez dial really means a tub of some type with drilled holes for FAE?

I like the suggestion to dubtub. I think that's the route that will suit my situation the best. I'll keep it beefy.

And if I'm understanding correctly, is pseudocasing simply a layer of verm on top?

Appreciate your patience with my naivety. Good thing is once I understand things, it's on lockdown in my brain.

Happy to help, I'm pretty new to this, but I have read these two TEK's over and over and just did my first 4 tubs using both.

The EZ dialed tub is a tub where Pasty did many tubs to figure the out how many holes and where it is best to place them for best results, follow the TEK and you're good. If you are going with the dubtub, obviously don't make EZ dialed holes.

Beef uses coir for pseudo casing(so do I and a lot of others) but many also use a coir verm combination, like 80% coir 20% verm, I have never used verm so look in to it if going that route.

For your shoebox 6L, here’s what I do… 1qt:2qt colonized grain to bulk coir (field capacity) with a thin pseudo-casing (1/2”-3/4”).  Hit it with mist and place the lid on it.  Leave it alone, no misting no fanning. 

These are 21 days in

Just coir, and if you want, verm… I sometimes use verm with coir but it does not make a difference in my case
