Decreased flush Size in later flushes?
    #5581282 -

Well I have been doing monotubs for a while now but I have found a problem with them. My first flush is always fantastic. Off of my 5lb tub I pulled over 4 ounces for my first flush. But then the flushes after that are really weak. It is pretty crazy. My second flush on my 5lb tub is just coming in and so far there are only like 10 shrooms. I am really upset at how this is turning out. My 10lbs tub did the same thing. The first flush I had about 5 ounces then the second flush went down to 2. Is there any way to fix this problem?

I believe that the problem is that they aren't getting a enough water. Is there a way I can add more water to the casings with out getting it contaminated. I really wan't to fix this problem.

Thanks alot

dude, that's completely normal. the flushes will have less and less mushrooms, as there is less nutrients from the previous flush. there will be less mushrooms, but they are normally larger - so it's a pretty fair trade.

you could dunk the casing but later flushes usually end up decreasing the amount of product IME.

yeah I know that flush size decreases as you go but I can't believe how much it decreased. My first tub I just got a little less each time. I guess I will try the water thing on the next few flushes.

It does decreased but I have noticed in later flushes the mushrooms are much lager easily 2-4 times more, though fewer. There are many reasons and variables.

It seems the only way to get more flushes is to make better cases to start with but even then it diminishes.
