Bulk colonization question....
    #14044255 - 02/28/11 06:39 PM (12 years, 11 months ago)

WBS ---> Coir/gypsum....2 to 1 ratio, coir to spawn

It is day 13 now, I checked after 9 days to see the progress of the tub and everything was fine.  Day 13 now and nothing really has changed from day 9....here is the pic



It looks like it isn't colonizing anymore.  The spots of coir appear to be elevated off the mycelium and thus may be unavailable, maybe a little dry too (not the sub its self though, there is condensation.  Does this happen sometimes with the sub?  Should I be looking to fruit this bad boy soon?  I just don't want to risk any contams with pieces of uncolonized coir at the top....

Ok man sounds good to me....That is your MSG :grin:...Pretty successful with PF tek and bulk stuff so far.  Have a SGFC, Montotub, MSG, LC's and GLC's all going at the same time for my first ever grow....Thanks all for the advice and most of all thank God for the search feature....

2:1 with the ratio, so 4q spawn to 8q coir? Not bad, not bad at all. Like Doc said, I'd fruit it too. That aerial myc is screaming "I wanna fruit!".

It was my first time around the block so I just did like 2 to 4 quarts being careful not to risk much.....Since this looked like it was working good I stepped it up with a monotub with more spawn and coir a few days ago....

Here is a pic of an invitro pin that grew more after it was placed into the SGFC after the dunk



Does the fact that it was invitro for a little while have anything to do with how small this is?  Sometimes its tough to tell how big things are in peoples pics because they don't have scale in the picture....Is this mushroom really tiny?....I'm in the process of correcting my FC issues now....

Nah, that's just the luck of the draw. Some invitro pins turn into monsters, others are shrinky dinks like that little guy. I've found that later flushes produce larger fruits on average.
