Hello All,

I'm afraid of missing my opportunity to case bags #2 and #3. The AC repair shop had said that Royal Sovereign was notoriously slow and unpredictable in delivering replacement parts. So I just moved these bags to my "standard" culture refrigerator, which is kept at about 34º F (1º C). I could put them in my 52º F (11º C) tropicals fridge, but I'm afraid this temp could confuse the mycelium into pinning, but without the necessary light and air exchange.

When my air conditioners return, I'll case and put them in a 59º F (15º C) FC. I'm planning on casing with 20 parts Canadian sphagnum peat moss to one part calcium sulfate (gypsum) and one part calcium carbonate (chalk). See GGMM chapter 20. I'm going to wet this with water in which nice, bacteria-rich outdoor dirt has been soaked (Where did I read this???).

Good Luck Terry

I gave up and dumped both of my bucket into an outdoor bed.
I tried activated carbon in the casing of the second bucket, the myc grew very vigorously through the casing, but it was not successful.

I got my free-standing air conditions back from the repair shop today. I set one up in its usual place, in the mini-greenhouse where I put my cold-loving species. So it was time to take the two L. nuda bags, #2 and #3, out of the fridge! I first cut off the bag tops.




Then cased them with the peat moss mixture I mentioned before.




Finally, I popped them into the greenhouse, which is now controlled to 59 degrees F and 85% humidity.



The air conditioner is at the bottom right, and that's a dehumidifier next to it. The air conditioner can increase the humidity to the point where dehumidification is required, depending on what humidity you desire.

Great setup Terry.

I have high hopes for this effort.

I am just spawning my first sacks this week.

I am using my standard hpoo+verm sub and a supplemented wood mulch formulas so far.

Good luck,

JD

Nice setup; temperature seems to be extreme important for this species. I guess I've had no luck due to too high temps; unluckily I can't control it and now here is becoming to be very hot. I guess I'm going to bury my tray somewhere, and wait for fall.
Good luck with your project, and keep this thread updated! :thumbup:

I've got a little wispy, blue-tinged white mycelium on the casing surface of bag #3!

Of course, atricoz got this far. :frown: We haven't heard from him, so I assume no fruits formed.

Good news all the same Terry.

I am right behind you and will be casing a block before too long.

I want to leave one uncased for longer, and will, as I have many
to work with.

Good luck,

JD

Unluckily I didn't have any fruit. In my opinion, this was mainly because of too high temperatures, I never got below 66°F, while best temperature would be 55-59° F.
Now I'm letting my tray dry, then I'll try to re-hydrate on late fall. I just hope it will be still alive :smile:
I'm not going to surrender so easily :evil:

We're holding pretty steady at 92% humidity, 55 degrees F temperature! #3 bag mycelium appears happy (but isn't talking much). #2 bag may be showing a tiny bit of mycelium on the casing layer, though I'm not sure just yet.

May have tiny white pins:



This is substrate bag #3, which had the most aggressive growth. But I'm also seeing this on bag #2, which has hardly any mycelium coming through the casing layer.

Good news Terry.

That is the casing layer, right?

It looks like you have been holding off on the spraying.

Very cool.  Thanks for sharing.

Yup, that's the casing. I'm not spraying because when I did, it looked like I was disturbing the delicate mycelium. I keep the humidity close to 100% instead. And the temperature is held down around 58 degrees.

I envy your degree of control.

I have a mobile air conditioner unit, something like this,
but I will need to be making more money before I can argue
effectively about the change to our power bill.

Some day...

Nice work!

JD

Very good Terry!
I'm confused by the tiny white particles in the casing material, so I guess the larger, out of focus ones are primordia, but anyway... good work and fabulous climate control!

My wife, who unlike me, has excellent vision, reports that all of the tiny little white things look squarish. That means that they are part of the peat moss casing mix, and not pins. :frown:  I thought I saw a lot of round ones, but I was wrong.

Sorry to hear that Terry.  I have high hopes for your efforts. 
You are still leading on this.

I also have less than perfect vision.  I do not use glasses, but a friend
gave me a pair of magnifiers that I use when reading small print.

It is funny when I see things in my high resolution photos that I missed
with the naked eye.

My L. nuda blocks are at varying degress of colonization and some
are consolidating.  I will be along shortly.

JD

No, but it is interesting.  ...only available in their store though.

Take care,
