Need Feedback on this Cube Grow - pic included
    #18862635 - 09/19/13 11:28 AM (10 years, 4 months ago)

I'm using a shotgun fruiting chamber
2 South african cubensis cakes

Unfortunately had no more perlite so I'm birthing these without perlite cover

Humidity is holding between 90-92%
Temp is holding between 71-74 F

Do I need to mist these cakes at all? ... or just let it roll, and let the tek do it's work.
If so, how often?

concerned that if I open the chamber i lost the humidity.

Your humidity will drop slightly when you open it to mist & fan (so yes, you should be misting).  Just so you know, you're supposed to roll in VERMICULITE, not perlite.  Did you dunk your cakes?

:whathesaid:
Vermiculite is sort of like chopped up cork. Perlite is a mineral. You don't want the perlite on the outside of the cakes. Also after birthing do a dunk (24h submerged in water.) Then roll them in the Vermiculite.

Sorry about my confusion.

I didn't roll in vermiculite !  Not perlite.

I dunked for 24 hours, but didn't have any verm to roll.

So at this point, I just leave it closed and wait for pinning, or do i mist?

Misting is required for optimal performance.  It is a shame you don't have any vermiculite left, as it really does help.  You should get some good mushrooms, regardless.

Been cautious man, I though I would start with a smallest, smallest quantity. Namely I started with 0.25mg.....and my intention was to increase dosage to see if something will happened.
That very small dosage, the first dose of my experiments i planed, was very very strong.
