Pinning
    #4966456 - 11/21/05 11:17 PM (18 years, 4 months ago)

Ok, I'm still very new to mycology. My very first try, I got all of the jars contaminated, but I know exactly why. I was too impatient and opend my jars after like 5 days. There was no sign of colonization, so I checked the moistness. God, I'm a dumbass! Any way this time around I'm doing great. My qustions are about the pinning. Ok, first of all, I had 3 fully colonized cakes, I did 3 because I cased the rest, but any way, I put them in the terrerium for a few days, then I decided to dunk and roll my cakes. When I went to dunk them, I decided to put peroxide on the cakes while I dunked. I think I might have screwed up here. I put straight 3% peroxide on the bottom of the cake where the leftover vermiculite was. I did the to stop any possible contamination the may want to grow in the extra verm. I poured some peroxide on the spot and it started to fizz a bit. I let it do that for mabey 3 minutes (the cake was submerged a few seconds after I put the H2O2 on). What I was dunking them in was pretty small, mabey the peroxide to water ratios was about 1/8. I then changed the water to straight water in the dunk container. They have been in my terrerium for like 4 days. 2 of the cakes have little "lumps" of mycelium growing on them. They look like small pieces of perlite, but aren't. One cake isn't doing a whole hell of a lot. My other question is, how long does it usually take for you to see pins with the brown head? I've read nearly all of the TEKs on this site, and on average I see that they say you should see pinning within 5 days. I know I'm just being impatient. But I still want an opinion.
My cakes are PF TEK, my terrerium is a 10 gallon fish tank, humidified with perlite. My humidity is at 99%-100%, my temp is around 70-75 F degrees. I fan almost every hour I can. an 8 hour break when I sleep, and an 8 hour break when I work. My chamber is in indirect light on a table. Well, thanks for any help.

You sound ok. Those bumps will be pins soon. It can take up to 14 days with the cake doing nothing at all. Just keep fanning them, they're gearin up to pin.
I was waiting for you to say they turned blue.
Just keep doing what you're doing.  :thumbup:

3-14 days for pinning.
Search: "A pinning strategy", it'll help.
Maybe buy some air pumps & stones to semi automate your FC?

Well thanks alot everyone. I felt pretty dumb about the straight peroxide but it seems as at least 2 of them are doing good. I've got to get more patient, I feel like a kid before Christmas like everyday since I've picked this hobby up. I try to keep my self occupied with new jars, reading TEKs and other things like that. I'm really hoping for some good results. Well, thanks again everyone.
