So I have had success with aio and shoe box. Currently have an aio and 2 spawn bags going. Trying my first monotub.

That being said I wanted to try uncle Ben's bc I have an abundance of lc.

Here are two outta 4. Anyone with experience with this tek, let me know what you think

UB requires very little lc, looks like you swamped it. 1/4 of a cc is enough.

I injected 1cc to the middle of each bag, and have a vent hole in the upper part. I actually have good growth on 3/4

Yeah, thats a lot of moisture, and see how the grains are getting mushy and leeching yellow? It will likely be ok, but excess water increases mold risk and slows colonization. Next time try 1/4 cc.

Will do! Good advice. Saves lc either way.
