You should have beautiful little beads of water all over the mycelium. Reminds me of Christmas. Your tub should have condensation all on the inside. It’s way too dry.



I am spraying daily the lid and sides with a fine mist. I also spray a little the surface.

Is that enough?

Has anyone tried the "buffered" coco bliss.




As opposed to coco bliss "premium coco coir pith"



I never noticed they had one that was buffered.


This is what buffered means


100% Buffered Coco Coir for Plants - Our coco coir block has been pre-buffered to cut down excess salts and stabilize pH levels, saving you the time and hassle of buffering it yourself. This enhances nutrient availability and soil balance, making Buffered Coco Bliss an ideal soil amendment for indoor plants, outdoor plants, and more.

Does it make a difference?


Are they they same price?

I have not tried the first one, but I use the second one, same type, same company, and it works great. The bricks are very tight.

I put it in a 16 quart tub, pour boiling water on it, then scrape off what I need with a screwdriver. Grew this (and everything I post here) with it:

From what I can see in the picture on my phone it is absolutely dried out. Looks like the mycelium is bruising. I would heavily but gently mist the sub directly. And the entire tub. You can dunk as well but I don’t like messing with dunks.

Trick is to get the sub to perfect field capacity and then make sure it never dries out to begin with.

spray plastic doesnt do anything. imagine you are dying of thirst while inside a box and someone mists the walls instead of giving you a glass of water:suicide:

id pour 2/3 cup of water over that bitch put the lid on and ignore on the shelve for a week or so.

Right. Just spraying the tub would do next to nothing at this point. But heavily misting or bottom watering the sub AND spraying the entire tub will help.

The way I keep my sub from drying out is by maintaining the tubs moisture. When the lid starts to dry I spray it. Usually that’s plenty good, and then I mist the sub directly after harvest to help with another flush.

yah spraying the plastic is pointless. get the water content in your subs dialed in and you just put the lid on and walk away.

in a broad sense if you are misting you are doing it wrong.

Do we have any info on contaminated tubs yielding weaker shrooms? I have personally noticed that in more than a few cases.

^ yeah from my experience bad tub = meh shrooms, although IDk about it being a hard rule.

But more likely perhaps.

I do unmodified tubs. I had a very happy penis envy grow and I didn’t have to mist the lid until at least a month in. As I the lid dries I spray the lid and the sub stays good. I figure it builds up moisture anyways so if it dries; why not spray alls and lid and help it out?

I maintained an ATL7 grow around a year doing this. I left it alone intentionally for quite a while. Heavily sprayed the sub, walls, and lid, and it fruited for the third time towards the end of the year.

It works well for me but maybe I’m missing something?

Ah damn, ok thank you! Looks like I’ve got a lot to read up on, appreciate it!

Yeah most of the caps aren’t black, they look similar to the ones that fruited on the other cake and not like the aborts on there, so I’m hoping for the best. I’m not sure, some of them are pretty dark. Sounds like I gotta take it easy on the water.

I did notice this morning that there are some little areas of grey on the caps themselves, which has me more concerned. Does this look like some kind of contamination? Hopefully the lighting on the new pictures is better. I also noticed some dark fuzziness on the corner of the one I’ve been successfully harvesting from. Is it possible that something spread from the other bag or did I just bruise the mycelium or something? The whole tub has had fuzzy feet, basically, so I’m not sure what that would look like. Thanks again!

Bruv, misting lids and walls is absolutely retarded. Just saying. Like, the only reason your plastic has any moisture whatsoever is due to a temperature difference between the moist internal atmosphere of your tub and the temperature of the plastic, which is due to the room temperature.

The cooler plastic causes moisture to condense on the plastic. If the room, plastic, and internal temperature of your tub maintains equilibrium, there won't be any condensation, despite maintaining a humid environment. Spraying the lid or walls will produce zero effect on the colony.

Correlation ≠ causation.

HYDRATED COIR!? seriously.
I've never heard of that. I didn't know it such thing existed.  is it expensive? Can you link me to it? I'm just curious



Hydrated with gypsum added to stabilize ph I use it strait from the bag and pay about 15 bucks ( Canadian ) per 50 liter bag


I had a whole pallet too and I had to give it away when I moved :aweman:

Hey all, first of thanks for all the feedback over the last few days. You have given me a lot to reconsider and have already started making some of the suggested changes for my next grow. These are Cambodian Cubes.

For now, have some questions about my current grow. I finally got some pins a few days ago, almost 4 weeks after going to FC (which I now realize isn't "a thing"). I feel like my surface is way too dry. I have the tubs in a fruiting martha that is kept at 90% humidity and about 72-75f.

The surface feels pretty dry and the coco looks light. I provide some FAE 3 times a day, and usually end up misting the substrate to get some fine droplets going. When I made the substrate, the field capacity was dead on.

Do I keep going as I have been with misting, FAE, and keeping in the tent? I think I went into fruiting too soon based on some poor advice. Next grow I won't be popping the lid until everything is colonized. Pics are below.

Bonsai, you don't need to pop the lid ever. The shrooms will push the lid up by themselves. You're drying it out
