z strain on coir pics of fruits nom nom

So a FOAF sent me these pics they are Z-Strain grown on coir/verm mix (not sure on ratio) spawned with WBS inoculated multispore. First flush. He also has a bunch of mono tubs going but they are not fruiting yet.
Been awhile since his last grow but hes working on a few isolates this is just to keep him happy for the time being could have probably used more FAE

To be fair the setup looked ghetto to me, No holes in the tub so the only FAE these guys get is when his lazy ass gets up to fan it out haha.

Yah the no holes in the tubs certainly is the cause to lack of FAE (as you previously stated). It's good though that the problem has been identified, perhaps you passed this information along to the FOAF? I am sure he would be happy to hear all the constructive criticism that you have to offer. Regardless the ghetto look can sometimes produce just as good results as the "pro" setups, although this one won't unless a change is made
Tell him good luck and to drill those holes!

Oh yes FOAF understands this, He was just rushed into the mix but now that he has some fruits of his labour im sure he will settle and do things better.

So FOAF harvested that bucket & 4 casing flush shortly after when the veils tore ect. He ended up with about 1 and a half oz. Bucket was "birthed" into a perlite tub so it could side pin and hopefully flush bigger, Well so far it looks like it will flush better!
 
FOAF also did some Z-Strain PF tek as backup, Just in case.
  
he did them in pint jars, They almost fully colonized before starting to pin in the jars (he knows he should have used half pint but had tons of pints on hand) regardless he birthed and removed any uncolonized material and let sit in FC for day, He then Dunked for 12 hours with pins on, Gently sprinkled verm on them wet the verm and put in FC.
Funny how the PF tek shrooms have a much darker cap, Probably from all the water logging

Second flush on the bucket looks pretty nice, Pictures when FOAF sends them to me tonight.
Out of 4 of his monotubs 1 has a pretty decent flush for MS, The others are nothing special to look at so I will get him to snap a shot of that too.
4 little casings have started flush 2, No pics until flush is complete though, FOAF is lazy.

Pics are in. Half the bucket was picked, The rest are going to be left until tomorrow to pick.
 
Here is the tub that looks like the pinset is decent

This tub isnt all that spectacular.
 
And another pic of a secondary PF cake tub he has fruiting

So the tub that looked promising certainly was. Heres pics of it before FOAF picked the ones that were opening, He left the ones that were not open yet to grow out for 24 hours.
Here it is before pick:
 
Here it is 24 hours later:
 
So now its gonna get dunked and go for round 2.
FOAF has another tub that the pinset looks even more dense, Instead of straight coir its coir with even part husk + verm. It should be picture worthy in a few days.

They are thin again. Do they need more light or is it just the genetics? I'd like to send you a print of my Z-Strain, to see how they perform. If you like the idea, please send me a PM.
