First Time Grow! **12/24** Complete Loss
    #19152636 - 11/18/13 12:57 AM (10 years, 2 months ago)

Ordered a simple kit from MWG and inoculated my jars with lil spores syringes 4 days ago. Small amount of Mycelium growth. Very excited! I was going to wait a few days more before checking but I just couldn't wait any longer!! Using a aquarium heater in water with tote then the next tote on top for the incubator! So about how long will it take from here? Just curious on how often I should check them?

This calls for a bowl  :blazed:

It will probably take around a month to see full colonization.

Great thanks guys! Want some pics? I got a free PESA syringe with the ones I ordered. So I put some of my other with that in one of the jars. Know anything about this strain?

PESA is not a strain, it is a variety of cube.

Cubes are cubes....

Remove the foil already...this should have been done after sterilization.

The dry verm layer is your filter, and you want it to stay dry, so remove the foil so it does not absorb moisture from the substrate.

I literally just got doing this. Is it alright to have it in my incubator with towels wrapped around it and inside another tote to keep the temp and light right? Is there enough GE happening this way?

Jars/bags/tubs/trays should colonize @ room temperature getting ambient/indirect light.

Main pinning triggers are full colonization, FAE and Evaporation off of the substrate.

Light is a secondary pinning trigger. For tropical species temperature is not a pinning factor.

P. Cubensis are a tropical species. You could colonize at 70F and fruit at 80F with great results.

Light has been proven beneficial during all stages of mycellium growth. Mushrooms like mammals have a circadian rhythm.

You want ambient/indirect light(on a 12/12 schedule preferably) for colonization and consolidation.

You want direct/intense 6500K light on a 12/12 schedule for fruiting.

Optimal temps are mid 70s throughout the whole grow, but anywhere from 65F-80F is acceptable.

Incubation is outdated/uneeded unless temps in the range stated above cannot be kept.

The inside of the jar is always a few degrees warmer than the outside because the mycellium produces heat..mycellium tends to stall at temps above 86F , and contams thrive.

Fruiting at cooler temps tends to produce denser, meatier fruits, while fruiting at higher temps will often produce hollow, less dense stems.


Mycelium should be exposed to ambient room light from day of inoculation as has been known for many years.  Light is not a pinning trigger until after full colonization and an increase in air is given, and even then it's a secondary pinning trigger.

Mushrooms don't use light for direction of growth.  Mushrooms grown in total darkness will still grow straight up, opposite gravity.Mushrooms turn towards the light because they are using it as a source of energy.  That's why mushrooms grown with the proper amount and spectrum of light grow much larger and heavier than mushrooms grown with insufficient light.  It's also why light is just as important during the growth phase as it is during the pinning stage.

Should I wait till my next batch to try and spawn to bulk? I have read that different substrate other than verm works best for this.

9 days after inoculation. Have one that is all the way down to the bottom of the brf. I have done a couple comparisons and seems as these are growing faster when in complete darkness all the time. Do they seem on track?
