amazon monotub, some advice needed.

GumbiMatrix · 09-04-09, 20:44

Hey whats up everyone, I got some amazon culture, fruiting in my monotub, my humidity has been hovering around 89 percent and I am having a hard time bringing it up.

So my question is should I worry about getting my humidity up? or just case it for the second flush?? Any advice from my fellow shroom heads is well apprecieated.

89% rh is good enough,
you could hand-mist the chamber
before closing it up
after doing your fae .

Hey Hippie thanks for the advice. I was under the impression uncased subs should be closer to a hundred percent. I figured it was a little dry because of the lack of pins in the center.

Hippie3 · 09-04-09, 22:12

actually often when the center is empty
it's because it's too wet there,
and the edges are drier with more air and
so fruit better.

Hey Hippie, thanks for the info I did not know that too moist can cause side pinning.

Cakes need 100% humidity.

Casings are just fine in the 85%-90% range.

GumbiMatrix · 09-05-09, 21:06

Hey Buckaroo thanks for stopping in and sharing that.

Peakster thanks for the kind words.

Those look great. Amazon rain forest!

That was the first strain I ever grew--fond memories.

BuckarooBanzai · 09-06-09, 06:52

Hell yeah - nice!

GumbiMatrix · 09-06-09, 14:44

Hey Mlbjammer thanks, how was the high from your amazons?

Hey Buckaroo thanks im stoked also, this was my first monotub.

The trips are very good from AMZ, smooth with not a load of body load, many visuals on higher doses. I actually have some clone BRF cakes just getting started now, so I am expecting good things.

You got some giants outta that tub, man.
