Just got my ass handed to me in a paper sack.
I pretty much cried for my mum and had to get picked up at my mates house and takin home.
Had to get my gf to leave her mates that she was out with, on a night they had been planning for a while, to come fix my head.
I was fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucked for a while.
I'm ok now though.

Oh Brother, I was there once too.
My best friend had to play bummer control with me for about three hours on the phone. I was SO lucky to get him on the phone, as I was becoming panicky and unable to even dial a phone. I am laughing (right) now but it was serious shit there for a while.
Lesson learned: We are growing things that can be much more powerful than those cubies I once bought in college.
I am happy that you made it through that tunnel!
Take care man,
JD

Hmm. They're not looking so great to be honest. The biggest one aborted, there aren't many of them, and they're all still awfully small.
I might be getting somewhere with that substrate (same one as before). The previous batch all aborted. Eventually, I cleaned off the aborts, dunked it, re-cased, and put it in the fridge for 7-10 days. I put it back in the FC on 21.01.11 and here we are today:
Looking a little bit more like a possible success this time . I've got them a little farther away from my FAE fan, and I'm being careful not to overmist them.

Looking good andy! Let's see how the caps develop, but as far as I can see they'll be fine.

Hmm, got some aborts in one corner, and a bunch of the others are starting to sort of bend over, but the caps aren't maturing yet. On the bright side, I've got a couple that look almost ready for an attempt at printing:

Should I be avoiding misting these things altogether, after they pin? I have a sneaking suspicion that that might be causing me a problem..

Mist can kill em. They are quite fragile. They need lots of humidity and FAE.

Cheers for the tip cervantes. They're getting plenty of humidity and FAE, so I'll quit with the misting. (it's a hard habit to break, though!)

They were already pinning when I opened them up.

Dunno, I guess if they're pinning then you might just let them go. Casing would give them some moisture, though, if you're not misting. I thought this was a species that required casing

Ugh . Most of mine look like they're aborting now. My hunch is that misting was the culprit. These truckers are ficky.
