Some Cyans from me n Elf (Mono tub style)

SquishFace · 12-08-06, 18:36

just some pics of success with square divided casing. hope to post some better pics in a few days but here are the pins. Was having a little trouble with side pinning, so tried something new and it worked.

12-08-06, 18:59

Whoa, that's alot of pins.

Can you elaborate on the tek you used please?

SquishFace · 12-08-06, 19:23

Used some fully colonized quart jars of PC'd Horse Oats mixed in with some patureized Horse poo for substrate in a 24" w x 44" l X 6" h underbed plastic storage container lined with a black garbage bag. We segmented the substrate into small cubes with a thin layer of poo connecting them all and cased it with vermiculite. Hope that answers your questions.

12-08-06, 20:06

Oh yeah, that helps alot thanks.

I'll be trying these out in a few months and am trying to learn some things.

Hippie3 · 12-08-06, 20:09

nice

now the trick is getting all of those to reach full size...

12-08-06, 20:22

cased it w all verm?

cool! nice pretty lotsa pins!

whats ur tub set up? fanning? temp? etc?

SquishFace · 12-08-06, 21:29

temp sits right at about 75-80, trying to keep it controlled but I have shitty insulation where i am at so it tends to be more like 80, the lids have a square section cut out of the top and is covered with tyvek, a fan in the grow area keeps air circulating but kinda dries them out a bit so I make sure to keep spraying the lid with water.

Elf Salvation · 12-08-06, 23:23

I cased with somthing like 75verm/25peet. There are four of these mono tubs (much like faht mono tubs). Acctualy dropped two of the tubs and had to reorganize them. The tubs where laid like cookies in the trays somthin like edging..

All four tubs are pinning after making the trays last weekend..

fahtster · 12-09-06, 14:14

oh man, i f'ing love it! so the edging idea is working eh?? sick... i like your twist to the tek... kinda more like patricks tek and what mort's fella was doing. it's good to see that the idea is spreading.

12-09-06, 14:34

I'm definately going to have to try this method

golly · 12-09-06, 15:40

You guys R gonna have some fun with those...Very nice indeed..

Cased half cakes can also give some nice edge effect fruiting..

Elf Salvation · 12-09-06, 17:47

Thank you all

SharkieJones · 12-09-06, 19:24

I'll have to try the edging thing looks like it's going pretty well. Congrats!

shroom_seeker · 12-10-06, 01:38

Looking good guys keep us updated.

SquishFace · 12-10-06, 09:04

Heres an Update on how things are going. I hope you guys enjoy.

12-10-06, 09:15

beautiful!

how long did it take for them pans to pin?

SquishFace · 12-10-06, 09:20

Tubs where made 9 days ago so pinns took seven days ..

12-10-06, 09:25

What strain are these exactly?

SquishFace · 12-10-06, 09:29

Large florida cyan's. This grow was done from the smalest print of my first grow. There are several more prints taken from two caps the size of half dollars.

nominating for dec's pic o' the month

mycobri · 12-10-06, 10:36

Beautiful job

spacecake · 12-10-06, 10:57

That's a very nice flush !

Lazlo · 12-10-06, 11:02

Hmm. So you these were grown by simply using those tubs with numerous holes in the lids? How many times a day did you manually fan and mist as well?

Those look a hell of a lot better than my Lg. Florida cyan grows. Well done!

Edit: Ooops! I should read the damn thread throughout. Nice job indeed. Very simple and it surely is effective.

Beautiful pics!!
So you had the fan outside the tub? The tub was essentially a closed unit?

Elf Salvation · 12-14-06, 13:55

Actualy the tubs where taken out of their cave quite often and we would take the lids off for a bit then replace lids and runn a cool mist through a hose into the tubs then put them back into their cave.

fahtster · 12-14-06, 18:47

wow... looks great.

i'm jealous.

These three half pints where used to innoculate 25 quarts in a glove box.

Growth was fairly linear, like lines of mycelia running to the bottom of the jars.

Very nice job. Certainly as good as most other successes with this mushroom on this board.
