    A mushroom monotub molded for the job, not a storage tote with holes drilled in it. Grower's Select tubs have extra-thick polypropylene walls and a reinforced bottom, so a loaded tub doesn't flex when you move it. The 44 quart tub comes ready to load with pre-drilled air exchange holes, adhesive filter disks, hole plugs and a pre-cut liner.

    Why growers run Grower's Select

    Built like equipment

    Extra-dense, extra-thick polypropylene with a reinforced bottom. It holds 200 lb without flexing, so picking up a full tub won't crack the colonized surface.

    Airflow you control

    6 pre-drilled holes take 2.5" adhesive filter disks for fresh air exchange. Plug them during colonization to hold CO2 and humidity, then open up for fruiting.

    Ready to load

    Filter disks, hole plugs and a pre-cut liner come in the box. No drilling, no measuring, no tote to modify.

    How to run it

    1Set up

    Stick a filter disk over each hole and fit the liner. Put the plugs in for colonization.

    2Spawn to bulk

    Mix 1 spawn bag (or two 32 oz grain jars) with 7.5 lb of pasteurized bulk substrate and level the surface.

    3Colonize

    Keep the lid on and plugs in at 72–76°F, out of light, until the surface is fully colonized.

    4Fruit

    Pull the plugs, give it 12 hours of light a day and keep humidity up with misting and fanning.

    Spawn ratio: one spawn bag (2.25–2.5 lb) to 7.5 lb of substrate is roughly 1:3 grain to substrate. Go heavier on spawn if you want faster colonization.

    Frequently asked questions

    How much spawn and substrate does it take?

    1 spawn bag (or two 32 oz grain jars) with 7.5 lb of bulk substrate. That gives a good spawn rate for fast colonization and an even surface for pinning.

    Do I need to drill anything?

    No. The 6 air exchange holes are molded and pre-drilled. Stick the included filter disks over them and you're ready.

    What are the hole plugs for?

    Plugs restrict airflow during colonization, when mycelium prefers higher CO2 and humidity. Pull them when you switch to fruiting conditions.

    Can I reuse the tub?

    Yes. Clean and sanitize it between runs, and use a fresh liner and filter disks. Replacements are sold separately.

    Why doesn't the bottom flex?

    Grower's Select tubs are custom molded with thick walls and a reinforced bottom rather than thin storage-tote plastic. They hold 200 lb without flexing, which protects the substrate surface when you move a loaded tub.

    I really love the design of these.
    I just bought my second. The black base is nice to help keep light from entering the sides and causing fruits to grow in to the side of the tub. The tall lid is also great because it allows you to easily access your mushrooms when harvesting. No reaching down in to a deep 56q bin to try and reach your delicate little specimens.
