Colonization begins at only a day and half after spawning. Must I be misting during this period or not?

Also, you may want to stop opening the lid to look/take pictures :smile:

Why?

Opening the tub to take a quick pic is not going to harm anything.

I'm sure it isn't.  I just meant in general, leaving it alone to do it's thing is probably better than opening it multiple times a day to check progress, like some people tend to want to do on their first grows.

I dont open it everyday. I just wanted to see the progress make sure everything is ok. I have to agree with notahacker420 it doesn't hurt anything, but I don't know a lot yet and he hasn't led me down the wrong path yet.

Cool stuff.  On your next tub, you're going to want to put a thick, black, plastic liner on the bottom of your substrate.  You'll be fine on this tub, but make sure you don't have any light coming through the bottom.  You'll likely get side and bottom pins/mushies regardless of having light from the bottom after your first flush.  No biggy, just annoying.  You can leave the bottom ones if you feel like it, they wont rot (so I've heard.)  I'd really focus on maybe even putting another layer of plastic on the outside or another layer of duct ape if the tape you used is transparent at all.  Some duct tape is.  They make cool gold and silver colored tapes now that aren't transparent at all.  Still, better to use a thick black liner because it will shrink with your substrate as it gets smaller flush to flush.  Also makes it easier to dunk... depending on if/how you choose to dunk.

Has about 7 layers of duct tape on it, found the tape laying around. Seen I would have light issues in the future.

3 days of colonization. I think its looking pretty good! Cant wait to see what follows! How much longer do you think until fully colonized?

If its come that far in 3 days it should be fully colonized in no time. Let it sit and consolidate for a couple of days after 100% colonization before you put in fruiting conditions.

What type of grow is this? Grain and substrate? Brf crumbled?

If its grain and substrate there is no need to consolidate I believe.
You fruit it once it hits full colonization.

If its a giant brf cake, yes, consolidate for a week.

Consolidation is definitely mure important with brf cakes but a couple of days still dose grain good.

Alright, its been 11 days after spawn to cow manure. I am wondering if I should fruit at this point. In the first picture you can see some pins that are going to be starting in the very near future on the clump in the middle. In the second pic you can see some small pins beginning, I suppose I have about 15 of them scattered around the tub. To fruit or not to fruit that is the question.

I have a 10 foot rope light I'm going to string around the tub on a 12\12 timer. Think that will work? Then set the rest of the cord on top of the lid with holes in it. Should I mist right away too? Leaving a couple puddles of water on the mycelium?

This is my fruiting process, small fan blowing about 15 feet away towards chamber, I did mist the walls a tad bit. We Will see how it looks in the morning.
