Popping my cherry - B+ and Costa Ricas!

Thought I'd use this thread as a progress report and troubleshooter for information I can't find searching the forums or faq. (;
Also because I have the ever terrible trait of impatience, and need something to occupy my time, and who doesn't like a dad who brags about his kids? (;
So far I have 2 Costa Rica and 3 B+ jars inoculated yesterday, and planning on doing 5 more jars (don't know how many of each, but I'll post later).
Hoping for no contams and a good grow for my first time!

I can't wait!
I still need to do a few things, like make an FC, and buy a dehydrator. But I'm still so stoked for things to start happening!

The FC is easy but time consuming... I'd suggest if you have the space for it, build at least two, and get more jars so you can keep playing. That's the only way to pass the time in this hobby; to go BIGGER! haha
I use 4 beer glasses upside down to elevate SGFC off the table fyi :-) works great!

Woo! Okay, making up a shopping list. I know on the website there's an alternative to using a drill, do you think maybe a screwdriver and a hammer would work? Or should I try something else to make the holes?

You can heat a screwdriver or something up on the oven top and then it melts nice sized holes, find something bigger for bigger holes ;p

So here's an update: It's day 4 and I'm seeing some myc growth in my first five, which means I can expect some growth from the second five tomorrow, maybe.
Here's what I was thinking in terms of a fruiting chamber:
-except I can't post links-
sgfcchamber's "No Holes" monotub.
I'm not sure if it'll work with a perlite humidifier, so if I could get some feedback on that, I'd appreciate it (:
It's simple, and I will be birthing cakes instead of bulk (since it's my first time and all)

sorry for the bump, but I'm not sure what to do as my next step. :P should I try to follow sgfcchamber's no holes monotub?

This is a good dehydrator...I have one and it works wonders!
Nesco FD-80A
Also, good luck on the grow! I'm in the same boat as you, first cultivation here too!

a fruiting chamber with no holes will work but you need to be around to fan alot! what type of jar is that 3rd one it looks odd lol i would suggest you put holes in your tub via any way possible, being that it's your first grow n all

My first 5 jars have mycelium, and a really huge amount on my B+ jars (no kidding, fast colonizer, but I hear things about long time to pinning) my Costa Ricas are definitely slower on colonizing. Just an update on how everything's going.

Got a question; I have 4 jars inoculated a day after my first set that haven't showed any signs of activity. A fifth jar, which followed all of the steps I did with the 4 jars with no activity, has exploded and almost caught up with my first set. Is that something normal? It's been 10 days with no activity. I know Costa Rica's a slow colonizer (and has some punky mycelium on my first set of jars) but I think 10 days might be a little excessive. Also, the inoculation points appear to be darker than the surrounding BRF cake. Hm.
First set of cakes are colonizing amazingly quick, I think I'm about a week off from consolidating and 2 weeks from birthing.

Alright, I knew this would happen from day one, but it's happened now:
Stalled/Slow Myc growth. I know the reason, and that's from using tall wide mouth 1/2 pints.
Here's what I tried: I took one of my 75% jars (They're all between 75%-90%) and much to the dismay of RR, I flipped one, just for shits and giggles.
I haven't had a single contam yet (lucky, probably) but I also followed RR's advice to NEVER flip it back over. We'll see if it speeds anything up, but I've got one jar consolidating, expecting birthing in a week and a half.

I birthed 3 of my 6 colonized jars 2 days ago, and now have 2 more dunking for another 8 hours.
the 3 in my sgfc seem to be getting some knots going, but I'll have pictures to show you guys soon.
One of my dunked cakes has small pins already.

Yeah, I rushed mine a little bit on the consolidation (only gave em a week).
Still have one jar that I'm going to let consolidate for 2-3 weeks for shits and giggles.
Will have pin porn here in the next few days when I'm not being worked to death.

My costa rica cake (The only one that fully colonized) is pinning like a madman.
The 3 B+ cakes I stuck in before the costa rica have knots all over them, and what appears to be bruising on two of them. Not sure how I have the conditions perfect for one cake, while the rest just don't pin.
It's been about 6 days since I birthed the B+ cakes. If I don't see pins by day 10-12, should I redunk?
Meh, I'll have pictures of the fruiting cake, though. haha

I'm a little concerned about the bruising, worried it might be trich, and I'm too noob to figure it out. Common sense tells me that a fully colonized cake wouldn't be affected by contams, but the paranoia's still there.
Thanks for the quick response

Probably Bruising, crazy mycelium bumps all over the B+ cakes, as you can see.
Mushies and pins!
The FC
Sorry for the abnormally bad pictures, they're from my cell phone.
Edit: Also; bummer. My last jar has trich, I noticed that it was pinning invitro while the bottom had some weird myc growth that was slowly going green. I'll see if mother nature wants me to have some more friends.
Crumble and scatter? Or stick it behind a garage?

I'll go to work, and check it when I get back. It looks like a bruise, but if it grew, that'd suck.

So it's been about a week now, and I'm getting antsy about my B+ cakes not pinning at all. My Costa Rica (the only Costa Rica to survive...) has pins and mushrooms popping up every morning, but nothing on the B+ cakes except lots of bumpy cakes.
I'll give it another couple days to see if anything changes. I know they'll EVENTUALLY grow, but I just don't understand what I'm doing wrong.

So it may be an FAE problem, because my fruits on the only cake with mushrooms are pretty long and skinny and some bruising is appearing on top of my B+ cakes.
I have holes in my SGFC, 1/8 inch, 1/2 apart.
Any way to improve FAE? Maybe I'm fanning wrong, or not often enough.

Yeah, FAE issues
Fan 3-5 times a day for 2-3 minutes. Your arms will get very sore, but you'll develop a tolerance

The only fruiting cake, long fruits due to bad FAE, really cool mutant on top, though.
You can see my unfruiting B+ cakes in the background, I'm at a loss.

I'm dunking the 3 unfruiting cakes, just as a last ditch sort of thing. I get excited to fruit them and only let them dunk roughly 6 hours. So I've giving em a much deserved re-dunk to see if they'll fruit in a couple days, if not; patience is going to have to be the way to go.
Also, going to have a great mutant for the mutant thread, its cap actually started "eating" another cap.

Whelp, I'm just going to update with some things that I've done. I made 3 popcorn jars using fractallized sterilization, one got trich the other two have no signs of growth (yet).
2 AA+ in PF jars 2 PF Classic in PF jars 3 B+ in PF/Coffee jars.
the B+ are going to be crumbled to bulk as per Frank's Bulk Tek. Been a fun month, stay tuned for some pictures.

fractional sterilization is a crapshoot, better off steaming for 8 hours, but iu hope it works out for ya

Saw some myc growing on one of the popcorn jars Will snap a shot when it's impressive though. haha
Tomorrow morning I'll do three more PF (maybe with coffee/gypsum) cakes with some PE#7.

Well; I've trashed the cakes that were in the FC, they put out another 1/8th before contaming I have one B+ jar that's consolidating for another week or so. My AA+ jars are about 90% My PF Classic jars are slowly colonizing. The PE#6 is colonizing great! The B+ Mini Mono is almost finished colonizing, and looking great. The popcorn jars are about ready for a shake.
So going pretty smooth, actually!
Also tripped the other day and it was fantastic! Going to write a trip report here whenever I find the time.
Thinking of getting some Pan Cyans if I don't botch up my current projects.
Thanks for asking!
