Hey hey! Big surprise when I got home tonight! My 6qt shoeboxes are pinning! I can fit two in a 66qt tub with some room to spare. Was thinking I might add a container of water for humidity. Kinda like a water tub.

I have a 3rd that wont fit in the 66qt tote. Was thinking I would put a grocery bag over it like in Bod's Tek. Just to experiment and see what does what. Eating the produce is part of the fun but everything up to that is the meat & potatoes of the hobby! Super stoked to see where these 3 tubs end up! I have 4 more 16qt shoebox coming up behind these that Beef coached me on. They are a couple weeks out yet. Looking forward to comparing these 3 approaches to tubs!

I'm also excited that I'm finally gaining momentum where I have a few things going at once. These tubs are all the same flavor. I have different flavors in the works but they are still a long way off. A few failures set me back but thats the name of the game in these early stages. I know where they went wrong and have fixed the faults thus far.

I'm gushing! Just happy with the progress! Thanks for the help everyone! Thanks for bearing with my silly bullshit, too! I are what I is and I is what I am. Thanks for having me along for this ride!

A few of us have setup 2 shoeboxes in a monotub and covered the floor with hydrated hydroton, it works well.

Great idea! I dont have any on hand, unfortunately. I suppose I could use perlite in its place.

Gil, make sure you don’t outpace your dehydrator capacity. It’s all fun and games until those 16qt fruit at once. I mean it’s a good problem and all but just think about extra trays or a second unit before it’s an issue.

Also you don't need to put a container for water. Just put water in the bottom of your  66 Court tub and then float  your shoe boxes in it that's what I do. Water tub with two shoe boxes running works perfectly.


It's pretty hot and humid where I live so I don't need anything extra just the water tub.


But yes you could substitute with perlite.  That's stuff so messyb to work with imo.  man I just save it for my garden.


Also an ez dial mono with the shoes boxes inside could give great results as well.


And a bag  over a single box works great too.

Good luck.

Once the sub shrinks a little 3 fit perfectly if you ditch the shoeboxes

I confess, since last winter I've lost about 75% of my projects before or just after the first flush.

Since switching from a flowhood to a 2*2 ffu.  I'm sure a lot of that is operator error, and a lot of it is that my FFU in particular appears to be quite turbulent. But working in front of actual laminar flow is a lot more like being in a still air box.  I didn't need to worry so much how clean the ape was that was doing the inoculations because contaminants would go a specific direction, toward me.

I replaced the HEPA filter on my old unit while I was on break.  Hopefully, that will sort out the green.  Because I have a lot of popcorn I inoculated since then.

All different cultures.



And back to the grind.

i went thru an entire year of something similar. a truly dreadful feeling in the gut. i tried everything imaginable to remedy the situation. i literally gave up a dew times tbh. then one day it just stopped... the grain maybe is all i can think?? everything seemed so clean, even the colonized bags until spawning. green before or just after first flush came in. ive since switched to millet from a supplier i really like and i cook the buhjesus out of it. not sure if that is what fixed it honestly but cross my fingers, havnt seen green but once or twice in the past year and a half

i suppose if thats the only variable you have changed, theres a good chance that will fix it for you. maybe try a new unit altogether. i bought one of those chinese amazon ffu's and luckily it works like a charm

good luck, stay strong

Grain choice won't fix mold issues, there is another problem somewhere

Great to see you're back Tree!

I have spent over a year just cranking out cubes, and then 12 - 13 years growing just woodlovers, gourmets and occasionally one different species. Like, two seasons cinctulus. Three years in a row galindoi. Focusing everything on one or two projects.

Since joining the boards I've jumped on tropical pans and exotics. Never had so many contam issues in my life. I get the feeling that with complex subs and casings, and dialing in FCs for wildly different species, everything becomes more of a crapshoot anyway.
