So what I have here are three healthy Oak Ridge jars going strong.

I don't really feel like doing a full on cultivation log so I'm just going to periodically update this post with new pics lol. I plan on g2g to another three or four jars, and probably spawning half to bulk and half will just be straight cased. I'll be giving a casing to my cousin and uncle as early Christmas presents, so they should be happy lol. Stay tuned, awesome pictures to come (hopefully)

So I lost my 8MP camera somewhere lol. But here's an update to this thread. I think it might have gone missed.

I seem to have gotten my technique down. 74F, 93% RH. The Oak Ridge trays have been in there two days now, so hopefully I'll be plucking by next Sunday. Pics are sure to come, hopefully with my good camera rather than my crappy cell phone camera.

Mmm, probably lol, but compared to my PE casings which took about a week to knot, these are moving along much faster. It's just my crappy camera lol. But either way, as long as I harvest by Xmas I'll be satisfied.

A few minor setbacks caused me some delays. So I'll list them.
The hose melted nearly shut because it was unknowingly touching the radiator. To save my humidifier I had to put it inside the greenhouse. Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but I didn't have the correct timer to halt the problem of excess moisture so my RH was probably too high. My hygrometer (As I knew would happen) quickly became unreliable. Bummer. FAE was obviously reduced since the humidifier was only recycling stale air, and I didn't have time to tinker with the settings (open door, timer, etc.) My light fell off its mount and is quite unreliable as well now lol.
2. The greenhouse was to be semi-automatic for me since I can't be around as much, but since it is now pretty much manual, its ineffective. I can't fan as much as I'd like to.
3. It was my first time working straight from a print, however, and I'm still quite happy with what I've achieved. I plan on going bulk, spawning Oak Ridge to maybe hpoo/straw and just using a double tub. It seems deceivingly reliable though.
Anyways, despite all the setbacks, I still will enjoy the fruits of my labor. Here's a crappy pinset that'll still make me trip lol.

P.S. I believe I added to many spores to the syringe, causing there to be many competing colonies (don't know the correct terminology) and therefore, tinier mushrooms overall.

They actually aren't turning out to bad. I can't wait to see what I can accomplish when I finally get all the conditions right lol.
Mastery of humidity and moisture content is my main concern right now. But, like I said before, each attempt gets better and better :P

First flush should be finished very soon, that'll be my last picture.
Next up, bulk.

Looks like a cluster up close, yet no shrooms. Dunno if its possible for a cluster to form during the first flush, and fruit during the second flush
