lmao i was in a rush hah. and i can articulate like a regular human being thank you very much. i just dont care sometimes lol .
bUUUT anyway, i have a bin...SG FC minus the perlite plus a humidifier. ect ect im not getting any pins. i noticed small pins that colonized over..so i cut them out to be sure ... its bruising from removing those pins. but other wise color seems fine a little metalic in spots but otherwise. i planned on letting re colonize a little more....but the point of this is i wasnt getting pins and by the time i noticed them they started re colonizing. .....
lol sorry about the shitty typing.

1. No perlite INSTEAD you have a humidifier (i think thats what you said)
Ok. well i dont think its a SGFC then.
~Some people use a humidifier WITH their perlite in a sgfc not without the perlite.
2. You cut off your pins or the mycelium that grew over them?
Dude, dont cut your cakes, or your pins, no idea why you'd do this unless your about to clone or isolate.
3. ?
Wtf is your question??, and mycelium "recolonizing" is probably a good thing, its reconfiguring itself.

I hear what youre saying you had a spawn bag, colonized it, took it out of the bag and fruiting like a block, and its not pinning just myc growth.....ok pics would help!!!!

ok thnaks you get it... ok. now i have read teks that use a humidifier...sdo i figured i would use that INSTEAD of perlite. considering it provides humidity on its own without the need of perlite. it is really ghetto. the way in which im doin it.. and maintaining heat...so wutever yall want think of it...muh temp is right and the humidity is 90%. ghetto style without perlitre...i may be a noob...but i do read. and i am logical. and it may not be your way or the ACTUALL way but the parameters are right none the less.

Not 100% sure on maintaining heat (temp maybe?), but cubes can fruit pretty darn well in the 60s, and as far as I know most people stick with mid to low 70s.
If your RH is good and your temp is good you really should be good (as long as they get plenty of Fresh Air Exchange (FAE)...If the mycelium on the cake was growing that is a GOOD sign.
How long has your block or whatever been in the fruiting chamber?

chic..1st of all..lol. and i did that on my FIRST try.. and the moisture DID NOT HOLD...i dont know why, or what i did wrong..perlite a few inches wet in the bottom holes all galore.. and i dont know. so i got so far with that one as to get mushrrom but they dried out basically while they were growing. so i thought this would be a much more controlled way i suppose. to keep the humidity.. i saw sum1s tek where they use like plastic coat bag that hangs in the closet .. with a humidifer hooked to ahose n flowing into it. and ect.. and i;ve read other teks that use it...so i see that using one (a humidifier) is possible..i mean i may be new but i do read and have read the different options.. and i am limited as to the method i use. so i admit i may have combined a method or two...but the bottom line is that the parameters are right heat and humidity. no signs of contam,,a lil bruising...but otherwise looks fine....so why wouldnt it work?

well tha block was in the bin, no humididfer, in the bag untill it colonized. then i removed from the bag added the humidifier.
i would say a good 2 weeks just seemed to be recolonizing....i noticed i few pins yesterday that were colonized over.. i chalked them up as aborts. and took them off. wouldnt come out broke so i 'shaved' it off so to speak...prolly wrong idea...but ive also read you can break off contam pieces of the block in an attempt to save... so i basically did that. not much very little. not all deep into it or anything. but yea because of that yesterday it is a bit bruised and i have seen ALOT of pictures to make sure...and it is just bruising.

Fan for longer....the moisture has to be able to evaporate off the block...cant be too wet it sounds it may be. But definitely pictures would speed this up for you.

Agreed. A picture is worth a thousand words ( or a lot fucking more here on shroomery.) And yeah, i think cutting away the pins was a bad idea but it could still be good.
Cutting away contamination is a possible step in saving a cake (or whatever) but really its a long shot.
2 weeks in the chamber? (thats pretty normal, I personally just went 2+ weeks myself without seeing pins on mine. those pins were most LIKELY good, an abort is pretty obvious, standard looking stalk (only about 1/2 inch long) with a black cap(THEY ARE EXTREMELY POTENT.)
If your getting pins, and your mycelium is reconfiguring (growing) then really you are probably good.
One of the most important things ( along with pretty much every step in your grow) is being patient. If growing mushrooms was as easy as baking a cake everyone would do it.

Coo bose. And yes, too much moisture (not humidity) can have that effect ****(only using the humidifier can be the problem as its litteraly shooting water vapor into your chamber)*****

im jus worried about not having it wet enuff, because of the last time it wasnt.]
last time i got shrooms and they dried while growing.. ; /
so i guess im worried about it being too much not enuff and blahhhh. with the perlite it dried way to fast...but with this it wet too much...i need a happy middle..i dk the perlite works for every1 else buti had the temp thing in there when i had it it was only gettin lik 30 % or a lil more humidity

Ok yeah, the pics help. The block looks good (aside from the bruising from the cutout.) Honestly it might still fruit if you get it back into that tub. My suggestion at this point is to look into using some perlite in the future. It's consistant, provides the humidity you need, and wont get your block wet. If you dont use the humidifier youll have to mist with a spray bottle and then fan a few times a day but using only a humidifier and a tub is a dangerous game. (most people that use only humidifiers use martha closets with bulk grows, im not very experianced in this sector but really thats the only place i find humidifers extensively used.)

Well if no one with more experience wants to help cuz your format isnt up to code..if you must use the humidifier ive heard people running them for 15-20 min every 2 or 3 hours, but fan fan fan.Since your fc has so few holes youll need to fan quite a bit for it to be able to evap properly. Id say fan b4 turning on the humidifier and when you turn it off fan again to give a boost to evaporation between humidifier cycles. Maybe if you could add more holes-this would help.

I didnt notice all the holes just saw top row. then id still fan b4 and after but i guess you will just have to see how much will evap off the block in a couple hours on its own and fan a little more or a little less.

id say fan b4 and after humidifier cycles and once between cycles if need. you dont want to do it every few min as it could then start to dry out. Its a balance...you just have to find it. as for while at work- if you can time your humidifier cycle right before you leave 30-45 min or so before you leave then fan a little to jumpstart evap..it should be fine for even 8 hours or more...i leave mine for that long and theyre still coming up. link to my grow: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/14448864

Yeah man, thats part of the "No Perlite" Problem, that humidifier probably jacks the humidity up big and then it probably dips real low before it comes back on while your perlite will keep it consistantly high (except at the moment your fanning which is no biggy). You could just add some perlite AND keep your humidifier and it will probably work well.

i just use the 4-5 inches of well rinsed and drained perlite and fan mist fan, the holes in the fc allow air to flow through the perlite from the sides AND bottom and brings the humid air up through into the fc. even if the top layer felt dry its still wet underneath, and you cant usually trust a hygrometer unless you spend 100 bucks on it. Trial and error is the way i learned...but i think your block will fruit nicely.

Keep it simple stupid. Get a lid for that thing. Add more perlite and fan a couple of times per day. My .02 cents.
