Fruiting surface conditions are very important, but be diligent not to over mist or hydrate your tubs, as that invites contam issues down the road. ☘️🍄☘️
In my previous videos about misting, I wanted to clarify not to over mist, as fruiting surface conditions are very important, it's almost more important to not over due it and invite possible contam issues down the road. Appreciate the positive feedback!
i’m about to do my first mod tub, so much conflicting information… I’m thinking you’re right though less chance for contamination and unless they absolutely need and are drying out what’s the point?
If your field capacity is right with your substrate meaning has enough H2O, yes, but if it starts looking dry on the surface or casing layer give it a very light fine mist. You want little beads of water on the surface so it shines to help induce pinning, once pinning starts just make sure you have Condensation on sides and lid and will be just fine to get you through the first flush, then repeat the process after you harvest to prepare for 2nd flush.
That's why I use a liner so if water does decide to start pooling at the bottom of the tub, it doesn't affect or saturate the cake. Between Flushes I will empty excess water out of tub by holding the tub on the side tilting it into a mason jar using the corner. Make sure you hold onto the cake tho and be careful doing so, I made the mistake of not holding the cake and she came right out of the tub all over the floor.... so please be cautious if you do need to empty some moisture out of tub. Properly sterilize hands and such Also! Very important.
Very good information. I have found that very true in my tubs 💯 always learning

So for fruiting, as long as there is condensation on the walls , is that good to go without misting???
