What do you mean "in there"? Assuming you have the correct type of light, you want the light outside your terrarium but as close to it as possible without increasing the temp inside above optimal....Light should be 12 hours on 12 hours off during the whole fruiting stage....

I think its strictly for not creating heat on the inside but don't quote me....If the bulb gets warm AT ALL then I suggest putting it on the outside REALLY close to the terrarium...

ok, no it puts of a soft light, no heat. I have yet another question for ye pro growers out there. one of my cakes is blowing up, like 10-15 pins that are the longest are about an inch and a half. nice heads, etc. but my other cakes are lagging far behind, some have very small pins, others have NONE.
i did read about different pin sets and scenarios but i am still a little confused. if one cake gets done WAY before the others, i pick, dunk, and then can i return it to the FC?
also, what causes one cake to explode while one cake does nothing?
temp=72 constant RH=99% constant
will post picks once they look more pretty.
strains: creeper - gulf coast - ecuadorian
thanks yall

thats just how it goes with multi-spore innocultations
yes once you harvest the flush, dunk and then return to fruiting.

Yup, random genetics with multispore....But if you harvest and the cake is still heavy and waterlogged then don't dunk it, just keep it in the fruiting chamber....

okay thanks for advice. now i know i read and have seen some people say that dropping a tiny bit of water on top of your cakes is bad, but i have read about this "misting", so i figured droppin some water on each cake would be okay, knock on wood, every cake is pinning but two. i will take a pic of the one cake thats going nuts.
another question: so if i have a few cakes with both creeper and gulf coast spores in them, will this be a negative or positive effect on anything

one other question: my setup for my FC is not tall enough for the strains i am growing. so i was thinking, could i replace the tupperware top with a film of ceran (sp?) rap/plastic rap so the mush can push and grow taller? i am aiming for tall, a little over half mature fruits. I would adjust the plastic rap so that they never touch it since i know mush touching plastic equals slimy waste. and here are some pics.

setup in room

my FC (5 days in)

the one cake thats blowin up, the others are just now pinning. some more than others. do not know which strain this is, could be gulf coast/ecuadorian/creeper. all from earthstounge.com *recommended*

roommate just birthed his to FC yesterday. Already has like 6 tiny tiny pins..jealous! but happy for him and I both. our first attempts ever.

is that super fluffly white cloudy shit trich or some other mold? watched it for a day now, no yellowing/blueing/greening...so yall think its okay?
hope yall i enjoy, i know i am loving the experience.
