Monotub taking ages to colonize
    #7571006 - 10/28/07 08:59 PM (16 years, 3 months ago)

So, I did a monotub of rye spawned to sheepmanure and coir. It's been about 2 weeks now, and while it is colonizing, it's colonizing at a snails pace. Lots of white on the surface, but not a solid coating, just random patches. I think the reason for this is because the substrate was too wet, so it's slowing down the growth. I had to actually make a drainage hole in the bottom to let out a good 3/4 inch of water that had condensed outside the bag I had placed inside.

So, the question is, is there any way I can fix this super slow colonization? I'm just afraid that if it keeps at this pace, it will end up being contaminated before it finishes.

Or am I just doomed to a slow growth and can only hope for the best? Is there anyway to get rid of the excess moisture?
