My first monotub is colonizig very quikly -- i am quite amazed, actually. Thank you to all users who've discovered & refined this excellent growing method. My second monotub will probably get spawned about the time as I case the first.

it's exciting to see so many people using coir alone (and with coffee) as a bulk sub now

or have people been doing that for a while? hahah :awesome:

Actually, people would laugh at you a year ago for even mentioning it!

People criticized me 6 months ago for suggesting coir use, instead of hpoo.

Not on this site, you weren't a member here 6 months ago, and six months ago the coir revolution was in full swing.

I've been around a while, and I definitely remember the coir controversy.

It's been 2+ years since I last tried a cultivation experiment, and after seeing all the amazing results coming from tubs I figured I would give it a shot.

At the time of my last experiments, coir was only *supposed* to be a casing ingredient. If you search for "coir" posts older than 2 years, it's all about the casing mixture and most people saying "coir is a bad substrate." Except RR :-) He knew.

Colonization started strong, but took a little long for it to reach 100% all over the top. however, I did not sprinkle extra spawn on top like I probably should have. Also, we do not have any temperature control in our cottage, so I am at the mercy of the ambient Hawaiian temps. Less than "ideal" but still completely in the realm of acceptable for mycelium (and comfortable for me!).

Two or three pins popped over the weekend. Now, lots of smaller pins throughout the block of substrate. Hopefully a harvest this weekend.

Uncased coir/rye block -- Monstermitch tub with out any newbfangled contrivances. Definitely a fan of this tek.
