Hey Gatorade, there's nothing to envy. You can do the same thing if you like. I didn't do anything special, nor am I a cultivating genius. I simply took the time to read up on teks and tried my hand at the Single Tub tek.

Anyone can do it. My advice is to try your hand at this easy, yet effective, Single/Double Tub tek. I think I spent a total of $29.00, including the spores, and look what I got out of it.

Hey Ohm, I had no idea that you were doing this as well. I actually got the idea from Iamthewalrus on a Double Tub thread. I love this tek man. Mine is slightly modified as you can see, but works just the same.

Good results.Sure I will try when my jars fully colonize.
But I want to ask you about the logic about this tek ?
I read this tek from somewhere says the trick is the ratio of base and hight allow air flow and with the polyfill it filtered...
So with this technique you don't need perlite or geolite and fan.Only Polyfill and a tube.
I think I will experiment with other storage styles that keep the base and height ratio.
Good work by the way.Thanks for posting.

Sam, this is the only picture I have of these growing. I was on vacation for the last week when these guys were pinning.

Here you go:



These photos were taken 3 days before harvest. The mushrooms almost doubled in size over those 3 days.

The height of the container is important, but only for shallow tubs, not large tubs. The CO2 expulsion occurs at the substrate/casing level, while the air exchange takes place from the top of the container. A well ventilated room will provide more than enough air exchange for the entire process.

Shallow tubs do not provide the head room for mushroom growth and may inhibit the amount of fresh air exchange. If you are using a small container you'll want to incorporate the Double Tub tek. Placing another tub on top of the tub with substrate will give you the needed room for air exchange and mushrooms growth.

Using this tek does not require any form of humidification. Either the substrate or the casing layer provide enough humidity to carry this through the harvest. I personally use a casing layer.

As far as the fanning is concerned, you don't. You could place a small personal fan in the room that the tub is in for better air circulation, but it is not required. If you are using this tub in a closet, a fan would be advisable. You don't want to point the fan directly at the container though. You'll dry out your casing and/or mushrooms.

Thanks for the feedback.

My scale is accurate. I actually weighed my wet and small amount of already dried mushrooms on a digital scale and a manual scale to make sure I wasn't tripping. The reason for the high retention is the solid stems. My stems are pretty solid. There is a small amount of hollowness, but not much.

Beatiful grow man. Nice yield and those are some monsters.

Have you compared the results of straw to poo?

How long did the WBS take to colonize the poo?

Are you going to do/did you anything to rehydrate the tub after the first flush?

Got any pics of what they dried up to look like?

    #4246036 -

I haven't tried straw yet and I don't think I will.

The WBS took about 4-5 days to completely colonize the horse manure.

I patched the tub after harvesting and gave it a good misting.

I am still drying these bad boys, but I will post a picture of the weight when they are all completed. My dehydrator only holds about half the flush, so it will be a couple of days to complete.

I dont believe for a sec that you got the weights(asuming that they were 100% dried) that you claim judging from those pics and the dimensions of your chamber. Please provide some more definitive pics. Then again I dont believe alot of things that turn out to be true.
