Another first time grow post (pics and questions)(long)
    #10476947 - 06/09/09 12:32 PM (14 years, 9 months ago)

OK. Pretty new to this, but almost feel like an expert because of these forums. Anyways.. my first attempt went for several teks at once. In this I will document the outcomes of each so maybe other beginners can feel more comfortable using different ways to cultivate. As well, I still have some questions/clarifications that I would like answered. And as always opinions/criticism are welcome.

I was given a mycodome (i know.. ha ha ha) from a buddy who said this will get you started. As it did. I had the mycodome kit, plenty of sporeworks syringes, and all the necessary pf tek goodies. As soon as I acquired the kit, I found this forum. Without even starting, I felt as if the kit was just a waste of time and there were tons of better ways to do this. So I decided to try many ways. Mainly the 6T WBS tek and the standard PF tek.

As a side note, the incubator on the mycodome kit works pretty well and will hold quite a few jars... as for the dome....

So there I am about a month later with plenty of WBS and BRF jars fully inoculated. I had 1 contaminated and 2 that stalled. Other than that, pretty good success I thought. At that point I birthed one cake. I dunked for around 16 hours and rolled in verm. The strain was PR. It seemed to take forever to fruit. I misted and fanned religiously. The climate was 75 f and 95% RH. Right on according to what I read. When I first saw pins, I was excited. I continued my habitual misting/fanning. Everything seemed fine except for the slow growth. I have heard that PR can do this, but even as of now (almost 2 weeks) they have fully matured. (See pic) They are also kind of twisted and weird. No contams that I see either.
The second tek, 6T WBS, is going better. The jars colonized very quick. This is were I am a bit confused. Did I case, or did I spawn. I thought I cased.
I simply put some moist verm in a container, broke up the WBS over that, then covered with coir/verm/peat. I thought this was a casing. Some have told me I spawned. Either way, some clarification would be nice. Anyways... these trays started to pin about 1 1/s weeks after going into the FC. When I did this, I had just put perlite with some water and put the containers in it (after a few more days incubating of course) No holes, no FAE. Just perlite in a sealed container. Again, the climate seemed perfect, 75f 95% RH. I misted/fanned throughout the day. As you can see from the pics there are plenty of pins and baby shrooms growing. So that is where I at right now. I haven't had anything mature in 2-5 days like some people, but they look healthy.

So I am pretty sure I know what a casing is and what spawning to bulk is, but WHAT did I do? Second, any advice, kudos, tips, or whatever would be nice.

If you need anymore info, just ask!!

THANKS!!
