Help Salvaging a Monotub
    #7388938 - 09/09/07 05:18 PM (16 years, 4 months ago)

So I have a major problem with my monotub and i need some help ASAP. Its a 80/20 Coir/Coffee mix in a 60 quart tub. Its fully colonized and it started pinning, but shortyly afterwards I realized the sides of the tub are clear and I should have covered them up! Consequently many of the mushrooms have decided to grow downwar along the edges. What can I do? There is so many that I don't wanna dig 'em up. Are there any easy fixes for this???.... Please help me out! Thanks

let them fruit as they are, but cover the tubs sides, once the fruits are a
reasonable size harvest everything amd then try fruiting it again

aluminum foil works best, no light gets through

only beef with foil I have is that it'll bounce light to the sides and might cause pinning
