results!!! [Re: hearthatcolor]
    #13592564 - 12/06/10 07:29 PM (13 years, 2 months ago)

All right thanks to everyones help here are the results, dropped the temp a little more to 70-73 degrees, fanning alot more probably 4-6 times a day and misting twice daily. Humidity is 96-99 daily. Also introduced a 48" grow light to supplement sunlight during the day....i know, it's not "required" but i didnt think it could hurt.




pics taken on the 4th...

wierd split caps, hollow center? [Re: hearthatcolor]
    #13592788 - 12/06/10 08:21 PM (13 years, 2 months ago)

Okay, so they are doing great, growing fast these pics were taken 10 minutes ago.



Buuuuut, the some of the TOPS of the caps are splitting from the middle!







i've read the posts about split, cracked and hollow shrooms. That being said, my humidity is spot on, no i do not need to recalibrate my hygrometer, i mist at least 2 times a day, fan 4-6 times daily and have a 48"grow light during 12 hours of the day and 12 hours of darkness. The temperature has been a little sketchy lately like fluctuating from 69-78 during the day(it's winter so it's hard to keep it steady). One thing i have read is that Lysol chemicals can damage them...well i do spray the air a little before i fan...tips, info? help again please?
Again, it is NOT from lack of moisture in the air nor in the cake, these were dunked for 24 hours and rolled some DEC'd(2 of them not just to experiment).

This is coming from a complete noob... but dont bother spraying lysol when fanning.

Your cakes are colonized and the myc can fight off contams at this point. Just fan. Leave it at that

You maybe fanning too much... Or could be shitty genetics? Supatrips right tho, don't bother with the Lysol, you may be doing more harm than good.

I am also definately a n00b also but I never spray any lysol around my FC and havent had a contam that I know of yet, assuming your place is fairly clean... im no Mr. Clean or anything but im also not a total fucking slob so you should be good unless you have like moldy food sitting around your house.... so maybe it is the Lysol.... lay off of it even if it is a little late...

TBH your mushrooms look a little off.. What was the strain?
They look like an aborted mutant, They don't look like any healthy cubes i've ever seen, they may be completely fine though too, i don't really know.. :bongload:. :shrug:

Yeah, i've definitely stopped spraying the air with lysol, i have a clean place anyway so i should be all good. The strain? Well, when i dunked they kinda got mixed up, lol, but it's either B+ or GT. This is only happening on about 3-4 of the 12 fruiting cakes that i have. I don't know if they are mutated due to genetics or not...i got the spores from a long-time sponsor of this site, i'm not going to blast him or anything because i would like to doubt that he would sell genetically shitty spores. I read a few things from RogerRabbit and he said "split caps" can be caused by excessively fast growth(these are a little less than 3 days old when pics taken). But all the ones he was talking about had split from the edges(like pizza slices) and not from the middle. I haven't been able to find anything like this...anyone really know?  :confused:It sucks being new

So says the wise RR....

*There is a difference between cracked caps and split caps. Cracked caps are caused by low humidity, which cracks the caps to give them a reptile type appearance. What you see above is split caps. It's part genetic and part just from very rapid growth where the cap simply rips apart. Split caps are not environment related.

*Usually, spit caps are caused by rapid growth. Contrast that with cracked caps, which is a sign of too low a humidity. Either is usually harmless. Vertically can also cause caps and stems to split, but it's a fungal disease so the fruits would also look unhealthy.

    #13685492 - 12/26/10 02:20 AM (13 years, 2 months ago)

Hey guys, didn't want to be one of those dicks that gets all kinds of help then never shows how much it was appreciated so... got 796g wet from 25 cakes, so ave about 31 per cake. The 2nd flush is underway now. Dujnked and redid the DEC.  The deformaties were definitely rosecomb, i didn't really mind tho because they were the fattest ones!!! 



No contamination so far(knock on wood). Got the rye to h-poo(PE) mixed up and in the incubator now...wish me luck!











Oh yeah, check out how this one grew into a heart shape...i'm sure this had haappened before, just thought ot was cool...

FYI: I stole all my pix off google! F+ PORN! Here is a shit-ton of porn by yours truly!

I have FINALLY written up a couple teks as to how SHP has done things in the past. DISCLAIMER: This is not for the newbie to mycology, and not going to work for everyone! This is simply what works for one person when other teks and methods have failed miserably!
~~~~~How SHP does their unconventional WBS Prep!! (NO DRY METHOD)~~~~
~~~~~SHP's highly disputed method of doing ALL their work outside of a flow hood or a Still air box!~~~~~
~~~~~Troubles harvesting the side and bottom pins in your mono? Learn how!! Dunking included ;-)~~~~~
