What Causes This? - PE DROOP HEADS (Pics)
#15927345 - 03/09/12 11:11 PM (12 years, 10 months ago) |

These PE's seem to have erectile dysfunction. Anyone know what causes this? I did hardly any misting since the moisture in the tub was so high, and fanned twice a day. Seems like they need more FAE? But the polyfill is loose, there's a duct bringing fresh HEPA air into the room, and there's a small fan in the room blowing FAE around.
Any other observations on this tub greatly appreciated...

They just need some Viagra . I have the same problem! All jokes aside. You need more FAE.

Light reflecting off the white substrate can cause them to grow down sometimes.

My PE has always looked nice in my greenhouse grows. I usually get less than desirable looking PEs from my monotubs, and I know they have enough FAE as well.

I was speaking 100% on my experience with growing Golden Teachers and Cambodians. Taking into consideration that you have experience with PE, you seem to be the person to listen to. I have always read about the mutant characteristics of PE. Thats one of the main things keeping me from growing them. Especially the traits shown in the third picture. Goodluck to you Psychotropical

ok, you just confused me, I have seen you say many times that gravity not light is the deciding factor of directional growth.

No I've got 6500k floros vertically aligned on the walls so light's from the side. I got my little greenhouse set up now and pulled the substrate out of the tub and put it on damp verm on a tray - the rest of them are perking up and growth has accelerated considerably so maybe they just needed to be free willies. The plastic I used is that 6 mil stuff that's "clear" but more opaque than clear - so it diffuses the light really well into a uniform glow so maybe that's helping.
Interesting stuff... many thanks for all the input I'll try to rethink this more logically when I get back in there and make some more observations when my brain is feeling fresher - been a long day...

If you enlarge the first picture and skwint a little bit, the part of the substrate closest to the camera does kinda look like clumps of perlite hahahaha

lol rr is one of the few people on this site that I accept anything they say as fact. I imagine he's probably wore out preparing for spring harvest, wish I worked on a mushroom farm.. there's no such thing in my area though..

Oops, meant to say mycelium. The light reflects off it just like it reflects off perlite, thus the brain fart since both were on my feeble old mind.

Not exactly. Many species of mushrooms will turn and grow towards light, using that light as a source of direct or indirect energy. What you have heard me say many times is mushrooms don't need light to "tell them" which way to grow, as mushrooms grown in total darkness will grow straight up, opposite gravity. RR
