I love your attitude and the detail with which you explain your approach. I just did my first grow, had some success but also some major problems, and basically went through Tubtalk 1 and 2 and checked off my errors. “Insufficient substrate…check! Flipping lids…check! Getting things too wet after my first flush…check!” We live and we eff up and we learn from it. Luckily I had the foresight to use the last 10 ccs of my culture syringe to create a jar of liquid culture that I’m reasonably sure is not contaminated, and I’m looking forward to starting the process again with the new understanding based on your info and the lessons learned from the hot mess that is my first tubs. 😅 Thanks for your hard work and generosity!

For $4 you can buy a BASE circuit for humidifiers. Not $30 for one in a box. They run on USB C and you can keep the circuit complete with stop start and burst mode button OUTSIDE the tub and the actual humidifier disc inside the tub. I have 1 and bought 3 more because I'm working with cacti that need high humidity for months to sprout successfully. It is incredibly complicated to grow cacti from seed bur about as complicated as mycology. Sterilised soil alonf with fungicide inside a sealed container and some take 4 MONTHS to germinate. Lithops have to be done with 100% sand and gravel, and as adults if they're watered more than 3 times a year you'll likely kill them. It's complicated but no worse than mycology, probably a bit easier. But for the average gardener it's rocket science. 12 years later those $1 seeds are $400 cacti.

Gonna try your method out on my second tub I think. I noticed with the mycelium all over over surface it'll pool up instead before getting the "beads" of water. I even got mycelium piss at one point with the first one but it really isn't doing too bad. Going to try your way out and see how she does. Thanks for the content!

I'm just going to mist the sides from now on I think. Honestly I might not even introduce to FC until I see pins just as a comparison or something. idk. Science lol.

if your substrate is at PROPER field capacity (a tiny bit toward the wet side is better For me) .. mix SPAWN to sub 1:1 or 1:2 Then you don't have to ever open the tub or touch anything at all until you get your first flush ... too much FAE will dry your tub, requiring misting to fix, resulting in some brusing, or worse contam .. SOOOO ... look really careful at what field capacity is, get that right , and the temperature in the room ... leave it dark and still air in that room for your 8-10 day waiting time ... don't open, peeak through the plastic to check for contaim, but never open that box ... on day 6-7 you should begin to see knots and or pins ... LEAVE it a few more days until there are many pins , usually not past day 10 ... when there is a canopy of pins .. THEN still don't open the box ... get a little fan or air filter chepaly at k mart or whatever .. run that so there is an oscilating breeze ( not constant airflow direct on the box ) .. you will get your first flush approx a week later .. once you opick them .. go straight to a dunk compleaty underwater for 1-2 hours per inch of substrate .. then flip the tub and drain your sub for half an hour . pop back in with the lid and you shouldn't have to mist or fan, but if the walls dry out then spray till there are dewy drops of water all over then let evap with lid on .. only spray walls if they become dry, wait for the second flush ... dunk and drain ... keep going till no more shrooms or contam comes .. remember the ONLY reason to open is to harvest or to add moisture that is getting out through too much FAE ... Dial in your holes or start with a properly hydrated substrate, and happy growing : 0

I couldn’t tell in part one. Also how much mycelium/ substrate to get 3 inches in your tub size? I’m new to this and on tub number 4. I’ve been germinating for 14 days in a sealed and covered black trash bags. Then fruiting under a t-5 grow light. I have yet to achieve a full tub or third flush. I think I narrowed a lot of reasons why after watching your videos. I’m using a grow tent for fruiting and it’s working well. Thanks for any advice.

I was following 90 second's advice to keep the lid partially open to allow for gas exchange. He says nothing about fanning. I might try your method at some point. I am just starting out. I would like to experiment and see what works best for me. I am very confused about contamination though. People talk sooo much about contamination and yet they don't talk about it while in the fruiting stage. They tell you to leave your lid cracked for GE, which seems like it would let in contaminates. I feel like there are a ton of different methods to try out, but I really don't want to contaminate my environment and infect my closet, which would screw up future grows.
@sxrry.8206

The thing is, as long as your grain spawn of choice is 100% colonized, the chance of contam during the S@B process is a lot smaller. The myc at that point has a sort of "immune system". Plus the substrate you use is generally low in nutrients so its less likely for it to contam either. Most green tubs you see were either a) not fully colonized when they mixed it with the sub, or b) it was contaminated already.

I'm a little confused with when to put tub into fruiting conditions with FAE. In Myco Trophic's video " Tub Talk Ep. 1: Substate Depth/Colonization/When & How To Initiate Fruiting Conditions", he says something that has me confused. I'm pretty sure he says a couple times to expose the 70% colonized substrate to FAE conditions (as in fruiting stage), remove masking tape and switch to micro pore tape. I've done several monotub grows, but have never seen pins at 70% substrate colonization. Do I just let the substrate continue to colonize with blocked off air flow until pins form and then go to fruiting? Thanks for any help

Great video! But I still have some questions, I got confused about some information: (I'm from Brazil, and maybe it's just english interpretation) 1º) You said that you do not mist and fan at your first flush because you reach a perfect field capacity which makes it unnecessary. Right? But, at the same time you said that you told on this video that you generally do a misting and fanning when you just see the pinning formation. And you advise us to do it twice a day basically, correct? (as soon as you see body fruit I stop misting and fanning) So, what I should do on my first flush? 2º) You said that you do not do the dunk and soak, because you prefer a heavy misting on the second flush. About this heavy misting, is that what you showed us? Misting the inside of the lid and the walls of the monotube.. In the previous video you said that this heavy misting could humidify the cake about 3/4 of inch in depth (from surface to the bottom). I guessed that this misting couldn't give you that 3/4 inch of humidity. Thanks!!! sorry for the BIG text
