Do these Pan Cyan trays look ok to you?
    #14424469 - 05/09/11 12:43 PM (12 years, 8 months ago)






This is my first attempt at anything non-cube.  I did plenty of research before I started this project, and so far everything has gone pretty much according to plan.  But as I get close to crunch time, things have varied a little bit from what I was expecting.  I wanted to get some other peoples opinions so I can judge whether I'm just being overly anxious, or I need to take action.

These trays were made using Pan Cyan (Aus) spores that came from sporeworks.  I colonized a jar of WBS, then spawned that to a bulk sub consisting of Hoffman's organic cow manure, vermiculite, and gypsum at a 1:2 ratio, with about 1 1/2" of substrate in each tray.  Trays were incubated for about 4 days, then cased with a  light layer of 50/50 and put back into incubation for around 12 hours.  They were then put into a martha tent with 76-78 temps and 92-98% RH with ample FAE.  I've been misting them 2x a day with a fine mist pump up sprayer. 

They've been in the fruiting chamber for 4 days now.  I just took these pics before making this post.  As you can see in the pics, the mycelium tore right through the casing layer and is growing very thick and fuzzy on the surface.  I've always read about how pan cyan mycelium is thin and wispy and usually greyish.  This stuff is thick and very white at the surface, but more greyish down on the substrate.
 
This is where I start to worry because in my research, I haven't seen pics with that much mycelium poking through the casing layer.  Is this normal, or should I worry about overlay?  Do I need to patch with more casing layer?  Is it possible that my original casing layer was too small/thin?  I tried to stay at 1/4" but I eyed it up, so it could easily be off.

But wait, there's more...

Wow, I didn't know that Billy Mays posted here!?!?

Thanks for the nice writeup. Very detailed, and complete. I don't know the answer to your question, but I thought that I'd at least give you a link to a thread that has some good info for you:

It all looks very well! Don't worry about the white cotton-ish stuff. I get it all the time, take it as a sign of pinning-in-progress, its probably just the colony charging up on oxygen for mass production of pins.

It also looks good to me.  Some panaeolus strains are very aggressive. It's definitely not all pans that have weak/thin/greyish mycelium.

I have received the advice to not patch casings for pans. I can't say if that's the ultimate advice or not. I've seen some growlogs where people patched and it worked ok. But my unenlightened opinion is I would just leave it. Sure there is some overlay but also more than enough space for pins.

Slightly increasing the temperatures wouldn't hurt for initiating the pinning, but even if you don't I bet you will soon see a lot of pins there.

Pin vibes sent! :mushroom2:
