Could be but t doesn't help him for someone to tell hm high temp makes no difference when growing sub tropical and cubes. I told him why cubes grow in the tropics even in high temps.

And I told him those temps are fine and not the reason he didn't get pins. I'm not saying it could be contaminated, I'm telling you it is.

SO why didn't you just tell him that while being obtuse about temperatures? Sure seems weird.

I have adopted the anti-ocd version of myself in regards to sab and other things. No mask but minimal and deliberate sab movement. Extra PC time to ensure altitude adjustment and clean sterilization. Hibclense before all work. All air movement stopped 3 hours prior to work.

Probably most important - general cleanliness. Merv 14 filter for the house. 3 hepa filters in various rooms. Hepa vacuum bags and regular vacuuming and dusting.

Agar agar agar.

So far the results are pretty solid and night and day different than over engineering everything.

Sorry to sound dumb, but besides turning on the AC and hoping to reduce the ambient temp(which is expensive as hell for me in the UK), is there any "easy" or reliable way to get the tempreture down inside the tub without moving the tub elsewhere?

Or do you think it mioght be best for me to try again in a month or two when temps are lower?


The Old reliable is to put the tub in the refrigerator for a few hours or even overnight. It's one of those things that can't hurt and I've seen it make the pins pop but I have no scientific testing to prove that it does work.




It's been tested and proven bunk decades ago , colonize at 20, keep it steady, they pin....colonize at 20 raise it to 25 ....they pin colonize at 20 and drop to 18....they pin.
Cubes are weeds give them full colonization and evaporation with fae

Literally your entire reply to him- "If you're growing cubes or any tropical species those temps are perfectly fine and won't stop pinning " if you had mentioned contaim I would never have bothered explaining the difference in wild mushroom growth protective mechanisms and growing in tubs.

Oh I see your confusion,  I simply scrolled and seen a scenario where he was having issues getting a sub to pin , ultimately coming to a conclusion that temps could be his issue and I simply addressed that , nothing more nothing less.
But I prefer to help people so after that I scrolled through his posts and seen his recent pics added , I then came back and said " his subs contaminated"
Simple enough explanation? I suggest you stop trying to read into situations so deeply you seem to be running around with a chip on your shoulder , were not here trying to be dicks

So what are people’s thoughts on drip irrigation layered in a sub in a tub? Besides a FFS what is your problem? Not worth the effort? Dialing in a tub is enough and once you do that you’re good?

what do you mean?  im a commercial irrigation tech so when you say drip irrigarion, i think like.. poly pipe with emitters or netafim.

Yeah. Essentially putting drip pipes into the sub, layered, and optimizing the drip/pump to keep it hydrated instead of just focusing on surface conditions. Of course the drip tubing will be tossed at the end of each tub but it addresses sub moisture at the root.

Something like a vivosun kit or just a bespoke simple kit.

Check out threads searching 'reservoir tek'. It's no commonly used now a days, but it sounds like you are thinking of an automated version.

If its not commonly used now was it determined to be too much effort for too little benefit?

I think dunk and roll eventually beat it out, but it's as simple as drinking straws inserted into the sub filled with water using a syringe. It works ok and sometimes great, but cubensis don't really need it if proper conditions are maintained. Fun to play around with though and if I grew more cubes I might revisit it over dunking.

pshshhhhh yall arent even close to me and infin8's level of insanity..

listen bud.  let me give u a quick answer here.

ive long pondered on ways to rehydrate for a second flush.

as you know, i coined the "punisher tek" which is just spraying the shit out of a substrate with the dish sprayer. 

lew had this technique he called "floating lotus" where you just let your substrate float for a few days.  i had that one backfire on me once and it got really rank.  fishy smell.  anaerobic. it does seem to help though if you dont over do it.

shit id say go for it. i dont think its really practical for most people but i can tell youre insane and like to over engineer things so:

i dont really think you need to throw it away though. just rip it out of the sub when youre done. they make that laser perforated drip tube i think would maybe work.  might be kinda hard getting it to "lay down" and not poke through the surface. 

a netafim manifold would be pretty insane.  maybe like four peices running the length? takes some pressure to really work right though..

then theres the issue with the POC.  youll need some pressure to really get it to work right.  most little fountain pumps or swamp cooller pumps are high volume low pressure (hvlp)

i think for the best result, youd connect it to the house plumbing and use line pressure.  1/4" copper line would be adequate i would think.  or a 3/8 braided connected to a toilet valve?

lol.  am i getting rediculous eough yet? im just getting started.

youll need to control it running somehow so youll use a 3/4" irrigation valve. i recommend hunter. fuck rainbird.

okay now how to control it.  well you could use a shitty little irrigartion controller or a hunter SVC and a dc latching solenoid, but i think generally the shortest run time any irrigation controller has is 1 minute minimum.

hmm... you could use a short interval timer.  BN-link timer with a 5 second minimum would do it.  plug a 24v transformer into it and youre off to the races!

sorry. i had to.

but honestly, if you really wanna try something

laser perforated drip tubing (i think they call it soaker tube)

connect to a big ass syringe.

voila.  autistic as fuck.  might actually kinda work though?

i would not use this until second flush.
