My grow room and projects - PICS -plz comment - UPDATE sep 07
    #11004118 - 09/05/09 02:40 PM (3 years, 9 months ago)

So here is my tray with 2 quarts chitwan spawn in coir/coffee/verm, been in fruiting conditions for about a week.  Are these knots??





This is the SG FC ontop of a toilet.  The grow room is a bathroom i sterilized for like 3 hours with bleach and different sprays:


A few of a 45qt of chitwan spawn monotub, under the blanket on the sink colonizing.  been 2 days:



Next is what i did this morning.  105 qt of PE.  2 brick coir 2 qt verm 2 qt coffee 1/2 CUP GYPSUM 6 qt spawn:



What do you guys think?  Are those knots in the first tray?

Is that little fan on the floor pointing at an opposite wall on low sufficient FAE for the monos?

UPDATE SEPT 07:

The tray in the SG has pins:


Took like 8 or 9 days in fruiting to pin.  longest i've seen so far.  i think this tray is chitwan but i could have mixed it up with PE i don't remember, pretty sure chitwan.

Here is the 45 qt monotub with chitwan, its been colonizing for about 6 days.  It had a bean sprout come up in it...i picked it...duno what that's about:


Here is thr 110 qt of PE, been 2 or 3 days colonziing.  This one has major spikes comin up out of the substrate.  like 1.5 inch mycelium sticks.  could this be the grain sporuting and getting colonized...?

I use the exact same buckets and filtering system you use. I use cotton to filter out the air.

I believe those are knots.

How long did you leave your tray to colonize before fruiting? I usually let my trays colonize for about 14 days, I usually case them, then I'll go straight to the FC.

Yeah that tray has literally hundreds of those knots...i've never had knots form like this.  I always wake up to pins...these have been forming everywhere for the past 3 days.

is that fan enough FAE?

You don't need a fan with a shotgun. :wink:

the tray in the SG now has tiny green spots on it.  when i rub with a cuetip nothing rubs off except maybe a couple dark dark chunks that could be coir.  the pins on the tray aren't making much progress, either.  i'm pretty sure this tray is fucked.  it doesn't smell that earthy anymore, either.  kind of fruity.  so i'll give it a day and chuck it or post pics tonight when i have time.  I'm pretty sure it's because this SG FC was used for cakes at a friends house and they let a cake sit in there 100% colonized by trich for like a week...fucking idiots.  I washed all the perlite out with hydrogen peroxide water mix pretty well but i guess not well enough.

I still have two huge monotubs that will be ready for fruiting in a couple days so it's all good.

We might be able to help you with pictures. Half strenght bleach solution is the best way to clean perlite. You then rinse it well and it's good to use again!

Pins don't grow as fast as in the beggining. Your pinset is still forming. Pics would be very useful!

:peace:

tossed out the tray (it was super fucked.)

the smaller monotub was too wet so i ran a fan on it with the polypil out and lid off for 24 hrs and now it looks perfect, in fruiting conditions.

the big PE tub has been fruiting 3 days and looks insanely good.  i have HIGH hopes for this tub.  the rhizomes are climbing the garbage bag and the entire substrate looks like one big block.  perfect.

got a small fan blowin on both of them with 12/12 lights and light polyfil in the holes.
