Getting started with Max Yield Bins

Choosing a Location

When choosing a room to use make sure there is as little exposure as possible. No open windows or doors that can bring in contamination from the outside, no pets should have access, and ideally a room that is easy to clean.

Things You Will Need

Max Yield Bin™, Spawn & Substrate, 70% Isopropyl Alcohol (in a spray bottle), Paper Towel, Knife/ Blade or Scalpel, 1/2" Micropore Tape and 2.5" Bin Filters. Additional Stuff: Torch or Lighter to Sterilize Blade.

Preparing Your Workstation

Disinfect all surfaces with Lysol or 70% Isoproyl alcohol allowing the chemical to sit on surfaces when cleaning. Clean your worktable and all required tools and materials before starting.

Personal Hygiene

Prepare your own hygiene by having a good shower, wear clean clothes and tie your hair back. Sanitize your hands upon entering the grow room, apply gloves and a mask. We recommend using a clean and dedicated pair of shoes.

Cleaning Your Max Yield Bin

This step is vital to your success! Take your time and don't rush! Use Lysol and alcohol liberally cleaning both the inside and outside of your bin. Allow the chemicals to sit for a while before wiping the bin with a paper towel. Apply the same process to the lid.

Preparing Your Bin

Clean your bin the same day you are ready to use it. Cover the bottom/bin holes with 1/2" Black Micropore Tape. Cover the top/dome holes with 2.5" Monotub Filters. Spray your spawn and substrate bags and wipe clean. Layer 1/4 substrate on the bottom, evenly sprinkle substrate and continue layering until ending with 1/4 substrate on top. Apply and seal the lid.
