I got a good hygrometer at PETCO in the reptiles section, by the terrarium heating pads, for 5 bucks. It's analog with an easy to read scale and goes up to 100% Works good for $5.

rock on ped!!! i know how you feel! wait till more pop up when you don't expect it! ok, on to a more serious note, noticed some darkish green (bad stuff!) so i took a q-tip and it came off a lil just like i heard contams do. so i took some rubbing alcohol (i don't have any hydrogen peroxide) and dabbed the two tiny areas that looked a lil green. this was about 2 hours ago. the mycelium quickly turned dark, like the color of wet concrete, then a blueish. but it looks to be recovering. i also picked the acrobats twin, he aborted, but acrobat turned a lil blue (they were connected) hope he recovers well!. on of the new twin is takin off like a rocket. and i notice already about 3 new pinheads. it just won't quit! but i still can't explain the dark yellow. i hope it can sustain itself through more flushes! also, the acrobat doesn't seem to be doing much else!
so, my questions are, 1. should it be alright that i dabbed a possible contam site with rubbing alcohol?
2. does a shroom that has an aborted "twin" usually turn bluish when you cut the abort away?
3. judging by this
can anyone tell me what the dark yellow stuff is that seems to do nothing?
4. what's your opinion? is this cake goin to survive much longer?
5. what do i do to determine when the first fluch is done with all there new pinheads?
6. how long on average does it take for mushrooms to mature from pinhead to harvest?

this is the chemical, psilocin, oxidizing, and means your shrooms will be pretty potent. the easier it blues, the more chemical, so I hope you get good and fucked up!

second flush? [Re: BatFly]
#1802093 - 08/11/03 02:33 PM (19 years, 7 months ago) |

well, all the original pins/shrooms/whatever have aborted now! the big acrobat guy seemed to be doing well but after a few days just stoped growing and the cap turned dark. there was a new fat one, but within 2 days his cap turned grayish. now i have a big one that looks more like other peoples' posts, he's growin quick. and he's only like 2 days old. is this the second flush? if so, i never had a chance to dunk the cake and roll in verm. there was no pause or anything, an i think this guy is way too big to dunk! here's a pic as of a few miutes ago...
what i'm thinkin of doin is injecting him with some sterile water. i just boiled some water and like 50 or so times (overkill? hehehe) pulled that boiling ass hot water through the syringe to kill everyting. then the last time i filled it, put it's sterlized cap on and put it in the freezer to kool. question is (sorry, long winded today), should i go ahead and inject the cake with water?
if so, how many cc's? it's a half pint pf with b+ in case you haven't been following along.
thanx in advance! p.s. i have geolite (leca actually) comming in the mail, i can't wait to SUPER clean the terrarium and put the cake right on the geolite.

You could rip that thing off and it wouldn't matter. it will still produce more pins soon. Dunk it, it's worth it

yeah dunk it pull that fucker off.u could have suffered some drying out during colonization which leads to contams because your network isn't as strong. usually u want to dunk before first flush. but it helps when they are already pinning because u don't have to wait any longer. theyll just keep coming. hey ped urs looks really good up there. try double end casing next time and give them a place to go. hey congrats to both of you though:) i think i watched my first grow every single day from spores so i know how you feel.

it's strange, cause i used to kick these things over as a yongster, no i stop, crouch down, and take a good gander when i see them outdoors. amazing to watch them grow! you can sit there and not see anything, but if you leave and come back a few hours later they changed. so exciting!
I agree BatFly, the same happened to me. -Mr.Sleep
