OMG I'm soooo happy right now!!! (first grow)
    #11056529 -

Hi, I so happy right now because I inoculated my first 9 jars last thursday, but I got scared because I later learned that I inoculated them when they were still a bit too hot after sterilization. And later I added some of those hand warmers to the "incubation chamber" to increase the heat and a sleeping bag on top of the jars (with a plastic bag in-between to avoid possible contamination) as my room temp only gets to around 74 degrees.

Well after taking a temp I saw it rose to a little over 110 degrees!! and they were like that for around 12 hours until I quickly took the heat packets and sleeping bag off.

Well today, 4 days after inoculation, I am proud to announce that most of the jars are showing their first sign of germination!!!

I was not expecting them (B+'s) to survive the extreme heat I put them through at all, so this made my day! (that, and my 7.5lb san pedro cut is en route to my apt.!!)

I just wanted to share my happiness with you all, because you are the ones that have provided me with all the necessary information to start my first mushroom grow, and I wish you all have a wonderful day as well. :smile:

I just now hope there will be no contamination..

Thanks man. And yeah, I've learned my lesson for the future.

I'll be sure to post pics in this thread. I just have to barrow a camera first ('cause I sold mine).

Yup, room temp all the way, no need to incubate. Good luck buddy and I hope you have fun with your pedro, I've got like 6 feet of 3"-4" thick cuttings coming to my place, not sure how much weight but should be a good time either way. Have a good one.

I know I failed with the pictures, but I forgot to bring a camera back form my parents.

But I just wanted to update: I got my first pin ever! Actually I notice two pins about the same size, not sure who is first but I love the sight of them both!!!

edit: and btw, all the jars were doing great in the growth department. Only one got tossed due to contamination, and another was on a late start but is catching up. And so far I have 3 jars fully colonized!

I think I'll dunk and roll the one showing pins now.

Thanks for reading :smile:


Edit: and btw, I plan on using the last 19ins of that san pedro I mentioned in the first post with my soon to be mushrooms on a little spiritual journey into the woods for a few nights. I'm think mushrooms on the first day/night and mesc. the next night. Sound like a good idea?

Oh wow! Now that I inspect the jar more closely I see pins starting to form all over! I stopped counting at 15 and just smiled at them all. :smile:
