I just put the measured ingredients into a flask, shake once and swirl, wrap, pc, water bath, pour. Am I doing it wrong? They turn out nice.

Nope your doing it right. 

We are talking bout no poures in this case tho. 

But its all the same.
I mean the mixing process


I'm going to do around or two of poured plates tho. So I'll do that.

With all this talk about issues with plates the last couple of days, I’m wondering who uses D3’s Agar Tek?

I’ve been using this since the get go and have never had an issue with it.  Out of almost 400 hundred plates I’ve poured, I’ve only had like 3 or 4 that had contamination issues before I used them.

So I wanted something bigger than a shoebox but smaller than the 66qt sterilite tubs so I could do more manageable grows.. so I went with a couple 27qt sterilite clearview. I think folks call them boot boxes? These seemed nice because they have a footprint a little larger than a shoebox but with a lot more headroom...

I initially tried a pasty-style hole pattern (5 on the ends at the top, 3 a couple inches above substrate level on each side), but it got pretty dry. Right now I've got all but two of the side-holes micropore'd.. but I seem to be bouncing between too wet and too dry.  Anyone have experience with these and have them dialed in? Got a hole pattern that seems to work well? TIA!

So you mean sides like pasty easy-dial pattern (3 about 2" above sub level) but nothing on the ends?

I used D3s the first time around.  Just minus the food coloring and I changed the nutes.  but yeah it worked.

Same this time as well. But somewhere along the line I made an error I guess.

Hoping it was a fluke due to the temp if water starting out. I'll know soon enough.

So 12 holes?  Woah, that's almost as many as I started with that got all dried out... but I'll give it a shot!  Can always cover some back up with micropore.  Are you in a humid environment? I air condition pretty hard so my humidity stays around 40-45%

TX!

no sir im in a way drier climate than that.  talkin half that .  yes 12 holes. and ya, use micropore if youre getting dry.  i gotta wonder if your sub is prepped a bit dry?  do you weigh your brick and water?  i think a lot of people mess up at that phase using "recipes" based on a 650g brick. 
once you start weighing bricks you find out they range from 500-850g. makes a big difference.

not only that but, ive found that certain brands of coir can hold significantly less water. i couldnt get canna coir brand for a while and tried eco earth using the same water ratio. totally fucked myself in the arse hah

yes eco earth is bad. canna and coco bliss work great by weight. you still need to figure out your own math based on your brand but..

anyway

i wouldnt say eco earth is bad by any means. the experience was just a reminder of the importance to do a lil squeezie poo to check moisture content after you mix up ur sub, if not weighing or using a different brand
