 This will be my first grow attempt I have some eye candy for you guys.. Not much but there will be more as I get later into the growing stage.. I also had a question about what you all thought about my setup feel free to critique

You will have an easier time flame sterilising if you take the gloves off your GB and make it a SAB. How are you planning to provide your GH with FAE?

I know there is probably a thread out there somewhere on how to do that, but I am a newbie and all this mushroom lingo confuses the hell out of me sometimes so a simple subject can turn into something really complicated in a hurry, I have looked into doing that but I can not find anything with good instructions do you mind explaining to me how to do it?

hey pinkfloyd below are some good places to start. it may seem complicated at first but i assure you its not that bad. i prefer a mixture of coir, cow manure, vermiculite, gypsum, worm casting compost for bulk. you can spawn to bulk with your cakes. but id recommend maybe in the future inoculating grain like wild bird seed or rye berries (whatever is cheapest in your area) and then spawn that to bulk substrate. use the search bar and type in some of these things i pasted below. i used them some time back when i was switching to bulk. i have a pdf external HD of tons of things and so i just pulled the names from the files i have. sorry i dont have links nor do i want to revisit each page, but it will get you started in the right direction.

No tek really. That's WBS and popcorn spawned to 70%coir 30% verm at a spawn to sub ratio of 1:2. The one in the first pick I took out of the tray and fruited it like a cake. The one in the third pic had a lot of bottom pins. so after the first flush I cut it in half with a bread knife and propped it up with the center facing down. this allowed the top and bottom to fruit in the same environment. Bothe were fruited in a GHFC much like yours.
one more thing I would at least cut a couple of FAE slits in your GH. Fanning is no substitute for constant FAE.

 So I can't tell if these are contaminated I'm thinking the jar is fine, I just wanted your opinions.. The Petrie dish however is a little on the sketchy side because I didn't inoculate it on the outer edge and it's growing something there.. All my other dishes are fine

Can anybody recommend anything that is somewhat the same as a colinized substrate so I can start dialing in my GH?

I have been running tests to see how long it takes to drop to 90% RH from 95 and it's 10 minutes on 5 minutes off.. I can't seem to find a timer that would have that many programs to run.. Any ideas? And I also wanted to point out that my humidifier has a push button to turn it on so I have no idea how I could get that to work with a timer..

So what your saying is not to worry about the humidity just keep it at 90% and mist occasionally?

even at 90 thats fine, you will constantly have 100% or close to on the surface of your substrate as long as you got a nice set of moisture beads running across the surface

They are all surprisingly full of rhizo.. Is this from lack of nutrition or did I just hit the mother load?

Neither. Most growth will go rhizomorphic as it spreads over the grains (or grains and verm here). Type of mycelial growth doesn't tell you much about fruiting performance.
