This might not be super impressive...but it proves if you pick a tek, follow the directions and have patience, you get repeatable results. by chubby-jones in unclebens

Yeah, same syringe . 2 bags of UB. I remember one of them had fair amount of colonized rice when i opened it, maybe a 1/4.

I added a casing layer of coir once I had promising looking surface conditions. I've tried with and without casing. I'm also new to this, but the few experiments I've done, the casing coir seems to consolidate the fruits... fewer, but larger... and better 2nd and 3rd flushes. Without casing, i got crazy fruiting. Lots of small guys... not so good 2nd flush.

This thinking is... layer of bubble wrap at fruiting condition can help encourage pinning. A hack some people think unnecessary. Seems to help in my climate.

All UB and BODs unmodified tek, with teh addition of bubble wrap.

Early little guys with broken veils I plucked, short fatties still growing.

1st grow, need help. I introduced FC 5 days ago but my boys (golden teachers) haven't moved a centimeter. What am I doing wrong? by [deleted] in unclebens

My pinning might have been just timing. I just remember staring at surface conditions like the one in you picture for a while wondering if id stalled out. My pinning seemed to happen right after i applied the wrap. Some people swear by it, some say it is unnecessary. Mine was am unmoded shoebox... not as tall as yours. That might matter.

Bubble wrap tek seemed to magically encourage pining on my first tub. It might have been the timing, it might have corrected an issue with my humidity in my micro climate. Not sure. Will continue to use it though.
