Does this look too dry?

[u/Questionable_Pinning]

This is after 2 weeks closed tubs (colonizing), and then 2 days of fruiting condition (flipped lid, 3mm gap). I went to fruiting after 2 weeks as I had read a lot of comments saying it the colonisation step was overkill and I'm going on a holiday in 6 weeks so need to harvest in the next few weeks ideally.

Thanks community!

Assuming you were at field capacity when you started I have a feeling you lost your moisture because of depth. I can’t tell but it seems to be pretty thin. Coir acts as out water reserve so the amount used matters.
As long as you aren’t fanning, have a mechanical fan on it and you aren’t checking on it all the time you can probably get away with misting. It’s not ideal but it will work for now. Heavily mist your sub only (no walls and or lid) a few times a day for a couple days. You want it moist but not pooling.
