How Does This Look(Pics)
    #10378469 - 05/21/09 08:19 PM (14 years, 10 months ago)

First grow so any advice is welcome. I haven't seen any aborts, but there are some areas that are heavily clusteredd. I guess the mushies will find their way through? Some are growing sideways but what can you do I guess.

How many days do you think they need until they open up?

That's one of the best looking first grows I've seen!

They're looking fairly close to harvest to me. I see at least one cap open. I'd say go for it pretty soon, but I'm a potency guy more than a size guy.

You think so? Not doubting you, but they arent very big yet. Most of them are no taller than a quarter. Maybe what I was expecting and what reality is are two different things?

Ill throw something in there for a scale, like I shouldve done the first time.

Yeah, it's kinda hard to tell how big they are in the pic. If your caps are opening though, it's harvest time. Maybe the one was just way ahead of the rest.

drainhaven, a dryish substrate would account for small fruits.  But that's a hell of a pinset.  Well done.

& for good feedback you should provide more details of your grow (if you wish to).

    #10378615 - 05/21/09 08:48 PM (14 years, 10 months ago)

Details:
B+ Multispore
Coir/Verm/Spent Coffee Beans
Mini Doubletub
Cased with MGMC.

Dry substrate you say? Thats good to know. I placed everything at field capacity, but maybe I squeezed a little too much out? Humidity has been steady at 99%. Any tips? Small fruits are really disappointing. I fanned through the holes, but never misted, because the sub was "glistening" and its a doubletub.

True reason im really asking these questions is because I have two BIG tubs fully colonized and about to case and fruit so I want to fix mistakes with this one. Check my gallery you'll see the jars.

  It's also possibly the genetics of the strain (not B+, the hyphae pairing).  Your 2nd and 3rd flush fruits might be huge.  But I'd definitely recommend a dunk after this flush.

Try fruiting one of those tubs uncased!  Bulk subs don't require casing, and occasionally the casing actually hinders growth.

Haha read my mine, I am.

i dont think it would be such a bad idea to mist your casings directly a little. if it looks dry.

Congrats on a beautiful first grow btw.  I'm on my third attempt at growing and I can only hope to be as successful as you (though I'm doing cakes, not bulk).

Thanks for the comments. Wish they were bigger, but the smaller the more potent I guess.

I'm only asked because I have an industrial pressure cooker that's about 16"x16"x16" and was curious as to the result and time necessary.
