ok, here is the age old question. I birthed my jars 8 days ago (brf and pf-tec.) They are showing NO signs of pins. At what point  should I admit defeat and start a new batch? I heard it can take as long as 3 weeks, but found that  hard to believe. I know that there is a GREAT chance that I'm being impatient. So, if I don't get a useful answer. I think I'll wait the 3 weeks. I doubt this makes a difference (but it's really making me think that..."at least ONE" cake should be pinning,) All three cakes are different strains. 1 B+, 1-Ecuadorian, and 1 Amazonian.




If no pins in another week you could try dunking them again, if they feel light like a cork you could dunk them now.

hope so cuase after this much work, it would be nice to not have to watch %80-%90 of my mushies evaporate from being all water.:mad: I don't think they need another dunk, but now that you said that. I'll probably do that along with cold shocking if nothing happens by a week.

Sorta related question: What's the consensus on lighting? Like I know 12/12, but I mean, what TYPE of lighting is preferred? Should I buy a lamp, or set it next to a window?

Was curious how vital particular lighting is.

Next to window with a blind will work, not too much direct sunlight or you will cook them.

Preferred is 6500k CFL (Compact fluorescent light) the higher the wattage the better to an extent.

I use a 15watt 6500k CFL in a jar and 26 watt 6500k CFLs outside SGFC

another thing I just noticed from going through the pf tec videos and some pictures of other people terrariums. I need more Perlite. ALOT more. I'm pretty cheap, so I didn't use much. Since my terrarium is a pretty large one 2tall x 2depth x3wide I  should be  using  about 2.5-3.5 inches. Anyone else have any ideas?

If you get it field leeched and it is aged enough then it has very little smell, green ones don't smell as bad as human shit anyway.
