I cloned a mushroom on agar and put then the grown mushroom from the agar to my jars. After they were fully colonized I did some G2G transfers.
I still have some casings, baskets and monotubes going, they are now in fruiting mode and look all fine. Lets hope these are working, this time I removed the polyfill from the SGFC.
How about monotubes ? I also have some monotubes going, I think here I need the polyfill for the drilled holes or ? Cause without they would be too low on humidity or not ?
With PF-Tek, G2G, agar and so on I really dont have many problems anymore its always just the last phase of growing on bulks or casings.
I will see now if the new monotube and straw project is working, I did here much better with the preparation. The first time I had some problems with the temperature of the water.
But then again Iam wondering why everything looks always white and then if the first mushrooms are appearing you also see the mold coming :/.
Really thanks for your input, every tip/hint is welcome.

So after ALOT of trying Iam 100% sure that the mold is always coming because it was always too wet. When there was mold and I wanted to throw it out and I grabbed in it felt totally muddy at this spot.
I have a kinda montub right now going on with coir and it works perfect without any contamn and alot of shrooms. This time I took alot less water and took out the polyfil out of all drilled holes.
But now Iam wondering what to do with the small baskets, these sit now in terrariums without any perlite and no polyfiled holes.
Iam now scary to moisten at all lol, Iam now not sure if the water from the baskets will be enough to moisten the air ? The baskets fill around 60% of the volume in the height and around 80% of the width of the terrariums.
I just know now when I polyfil all holes and put in perlite I will get always mold after a few weeks. The question is now, will this also happen with perlite + opened up holes with no polyfill ?
Iam not sure why nobody could help me so far sorting this out. Mind you this isnt the first forum where Ive asked for help and nobody ever mentioned anything about moist lvl.
Ive come to the conclusion moist lvl matters even more than cleaness (is that even a word ?) in this phase of growing.
Thanks in advance for all incoming help and answers .

Ive made a Pic from my terrariums with the baskets in it, maybe you will get a better idea then what Iam asking about. Bear in mind Ive made this pic with a real crappy webcam, Iam sorry for it but I dont have anything like a digicam or something .

Like Ive said crappy quality but its just to show you the terrarium where the baskets are sitting in. You also can see the drilled holes in it, at least from the bottom tube. The top tube has the same but you cant see it because of the stupid lighting .
Now I dont know if I should put perlite in it or not.
I just know everytime I put perlite in AND stuff polyfill into the holes the whole thing contaminates always after around 2-3 weeks.
Right now everything is white but Iam worried about the RH.
You cant see any waterdrops on the boxes but the windows are always a bit steamed or clouded up, hopefully you know what I mean.

Nobody can answer me if I should put the baskets in a SGFC (made a SFGC out of the boxes from the pics now) with perlite or no perlite ? I really can“t find an answer to it :/.

I would put a basket like that into a SGFC. Use something to elevate the basket about 1" above the perlite. Also make sure that your SGFC has holes on all six sides and is elevated about 2" off of a desk or counter top.
