Low ceiling in FC... and pins ontop of cake
    #12052367 - 02/18/10 07:21 AM (14 years, 10 months ago)

This is my first grow and I'm doing BRF/Verm cakes and my FC is a mini-tub, so there's about an inch of space between the top of the cake and the ceiling...

Now that there are pins on top of the cake I'm wondering how they will do - will they hit the ceiling and grow sideways (like a vine)? Or will the ceiling stunt their growth? Should I dig a bit of perlite out from beneath so my cakes can sit deeper in the FC? How much space is enough?

Your signature is wrong on colonization temps!

It will work but not ideal the shrooms will just grow 'like vines' most of the time some will grow fucked if they grow vertical off the cake.
