Misting during fruiting! advice needed

#11281180 - 10/19/09 10:53 PM (14 years, 5 months ago)

ok well so far ive somehow managed to start fruiting! :laugh:

i already have 4 pins popping up and its the 3rd day. is this normal? can i expect to see more? i started with a growbag and moved it into a plastic container and sprayed some water in there (i was thinking mabey i over did it cause its gone a bit yellowish...) and covered it with a plastic wrap.. i then poked some small holes in it so fresh air could get in as well as let the evaporated water out. ive got a heater facing it to go off every 20 mins to keep em o so toasty :laugh:

. the main question is should i be misting once everyday? ive been tryin to avoid misting the lump of myc and just pouring some into the container since with the heater it evaporates and sticks on the plastic wrap which i think would splash down onto the cake itself sort of a self misting setup haha again this is really low budget as it is only for a small hobby..some pro advise on how much water i should be dowsing the container in would be a big help :laugh:

i dont wanna hurt the little guys! mucho's gracias meamigos!

P.S. so tempted to eat one of the little guys hehe :rasta:

Fruiting starts relatively quick (compared to colonization) so ya thats preety normal.

You should mist and fan a few times a day.

What kind of chamber do you have? Pics would help a lot.

3 times a day is common some do more, some may do less.

mist until you have some nice little beads of moisture but not pooling water and fan it out every couple hours or whatever you have set up for that until that moisture evapoarates, if you can no longer see it it's time to mist.
the moisture on the surface will give you you 95-99% humidity on the surface where it matters most

It doesn't matter what i think of you...all that matters is clean spawn
I'm tired do me a favor
