and now you can help spread the correct information.
ppl that get ahead of themselves help spread incorrect info.
we all do it still. even tho some of us im sure will never admit it. but know something as fact b4 you reitterate it.
youve only been here a short time, and know what youre talking about, you seem like youll be an asset to the community.
just watch ur terminology some ppl around here will be complete dicks about it

OP- i just wrote a thread about this, how big were the holes you placed in the monotub? and did you place them just above your casing layer?

Can you help me understand this? Are you saying you mixed 6 BRF jars per container into one inch of verm, then cased with 1/2 inch of coir/verm in a 50/50 ratio? And I have no idea what 'caco3' is. Sorry if I should understand this, but if you could please elaborate, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!
Looks like a success to me.

Caco3 is calcium carbonate I use it to controll the ph level of the water I use ,plus I use a little hydrogen peroxide. Vermiculite is at about an inch to an inch and a half on the bottom then six jars are crumbled on top of that a caseing layer of verm and coir is added to the top of that at about a half inch to an inch. There are some people here that dunk and crumble w/o the use of a caseing layer and are greatly successful.

The diameter of the holes I am useing are 1 inch and I have about three of them 1 inch over the caseing layer level in the linear lengths and two in the shorter areas.

I wonder what would happen if you mixed in enough coir to double or triple the amount of substrate after this flush. Very nice flush btw I didn't even know you could do that with just a brf sub.

Thanks for your reply, man. So you just crumbled the cakes on top, then cased immediately? Is the bottom layer of verm wet?
I'm sorry I guess I missed this tek somewhere. i thought you need to crumble to a nutritive sub and then let that colonize before casing. I guess I never was that interested in crumbling and casing so I didn't look too hard...
Thanks for the info, man. Any reply is appreciated.

The holes provide gas exchange. I don't think you could consider it fresh air exchange.

MadRiver, you don't have to crumble the cakes and mix them in with another substrate, you can just crumble and case. On the other hand, if you want more yield out of a colonized cake, you can take a couple cakes, crumble and spawn them to a few pints worth of pasteurized coir or another bulk and get a much bigger yield. I love coir. Too bad I bought every single brick of coir in town like a greedy bastard. Lizards can kiss my have a good day too much vodka here. I feel like stumbling through the woods and yelling at my weed plants, tell them to grow fast like their cousin cubie.

the polyfil is a synthetic fiber that is contam free, and almost fully contam resistant. it doesnt get soggy with water or humidity like cotton would.
using it in a shotgun FC would not only not be beneficial, but it would be a pain in the ass. the way the shotgun is set up is to give a high humidity and fanning and misting are to be coupled with it.
the mono tub has LARGE holes filled with polyfil to provide fae. you have holes at substrate level and higher up to keep the environment inside there circulating. there was an argument recently about whether or not the fresh air coming in the top holes really pushes the c02 out of the bottom holes. the purpose of this is bcuz the mushrooms like a high c02 diet. the argument was never solved

crumbling and mixing with horse poo or coir or compost is called a bulk grow, and I will never go back to casing stuff right out of the jar. I have a huge 105 quart monotub of horse SH*T I mixed with five quart jars of popcorn and I can't wait to see how much comes from it. It weighs about thirty to forty pounds.

Jeet, not to brag but Ive pulled 5.25 bone dry oz off a mono from 1st flush before and then went on to harvest 3 then 1 more oz making it a total of 9.25oz off one 54qt mono.
Never say 8oz can;t be grown from one mono...
It CAN be done.

dude, you guys don't know what a "monotub" is apparently:

Ohmatic's Monotub - Original Tek
monotubs utilize ONE TUB for the entire process, placing casings inside of one of these is NOT a monotub, it's a fruiting chamber.
FYFTW!!

thats all.
