DRY poo tub (pics)
    #6815047 - 04/21/07 07:34 AM (17 years, 8 months ago)

hey all,

i have 2 tubs colonizing. one of the tubs has a lot of moisture, which is highlighted by A LOT of aerial mycelium. the second tub was the opposite. it was BONE dry, there was a thin layer of poo which was hard/brown. it seemed the mycelium was having trouble getting through it so i misted liberally....







these tubs were spawned at same rate/time. i think the dry one got more straw than poo, therefore leading to different moisture content.

just wondering if i took the right course of action... should i KEEP misting?

how about before casing, should i give them a good soak prior to?

BE Well.

if nothing changes you can try dunking then draining it.
it will rehydrate the sub and hopefully allow the colonization to finish.

or just keep misting if you dont want to take a chance with contams

I would probably add a few quarts of water to that tub, till the substrate is covered, and then wait 24 hours, then drain and recover and give it some more time.
