These cubes been birthing for about 7-9 days I am not sure if it is looking right or not. Especially the one with the bulk growing on the side. Please tell me what you think.

They look fine, perhaps they're mutants it's hard to tell what I'm looking at since I don't see a cap on any of those mushrooms.
your SGFC looks a bit too small. 1/4 inch holes in a grid pattern two inches apart. You need 4-6 inches of perlite in the bottom does it have that much?

what the heck is that lol. Teenage mutant ninja shrooms. Other than that they look ok. INcrease your perlite for moisture and the whole quarter inch hole thing. all the way around. including the bottom. this lets airflow through your perlite and create humidity in the chamber.

bodhisatta said: Fruiting Chamber A SGFC has 1/4" holes spaces 2 inches apart in a grid patten on all six sides. 4-6 inches of moist perlite. No attachments made to it with any extra things like humidifiers. Optimally the SGFC should be in the middle of a room. No fans should be run in the room with the SGFC, but a cracked window is OK. A humidifier in your house can help to raise the ambient RH but don't put it near your SGFC put it in the other corner of the room if you do decide to run a humidifier at all. The SGFC IMO should have at least 6-12 inches of room from any wall on all 6 sides. This includes finding some sort of raisers to elevate the SGFC off of the surface it's on. This is what can happen if you make your SGFC the right way. Here's what will happen if you do it the wrong way. You'll likely rage quit.
Misting and Fanning. This is a source of much grief and 100's of posts a week here. Misting and fanning is not at all complicated as it needs to be. In general you'll mist your cakes until they glisten(yes they can even with the verm on them) and then fan right after the mist. You can mist your cakes directly and you should. When you notice the cake is no longer glistening you can mist it again and then fan. This occurs on average of 3-5 times a day. Don't worry about sleeping or being gone 12 hours. Just do it when you're around and don't forget about it is all. Fanning is not FAE it's only purpose is to relive the high RH air so that the cakes can get a kickstart on evaporation.
FAE This is a phenomenon (Fresh air exchange) in a properly built SGFC this is constantly happening. The perlite is naturally cooler than the surrounding air this moves molecules closer to eachother as the lose kinetic energy. This creates low pressure which pulls air up through the bottom holes. As the air moves through the perlite it picks up humidity and keeps the chamber at or above 90%RH. This occurs naturally without the fanning and is why we like to have no fans in the room and is also why fanning after misting is not a replacement for FAE.

You would need to fan several times per hour.

pick them when they stop getting bigger. they look mutant to me. so just keep an eye on things.
your sgfc looks like it could use some more holes in the tub, not sure if the ventilation is good enough.
