The aerial spiky looking mycelium and the skinny pins with small caps is the giveaway. It will do better now with it functioning properly it will have better humidity and FAE :thumbup:

So I'v made some improvements to my SGFC environment. I moved the shotgun shell from the closet to a clean open area under a large wall of windows. The SGFC will get proper air flow now and the natural diffused sunlight should be an added benefit. My perlite was also only about 2.5 inches, so I have bumped that up to the 5 inches now. The two earlier cakes I had fruiting got dried out due to the low perlite level, and I had also only dunked them for 12 hours. They gave me some small, but amazingly potent fruits. I have those two cakes re-dunking now for 24 hours. I have four newly birthed mexicube cakes that are also dunking for 24 hours and will be moved to the SGFC tomorrow. Thanks a lot for the advice guys, I think this will be a lot more promising..updates to come :smile:

4 freshly birthed cakes finished a solid 24 hour dunk and moved into their new home. 2 first flush cakes completed a 24 hour dunking also, I left the small pins on that were still a healthy color but had halted growth as the cake was lacking moisture and proper FAE from its first flush. All the pins continued to grow while under water, they were thirsty :smile:

The two re-dunks are coming along today. Some of the new pins sprouting have thicker stalks then the thinner pins I left on to grow from the first flush.

Haha, I totally agree. I'v been dedicating so much time to the cakes that I'v neglected my poor little red pandas. I will be sure to fan them extra and give them adequate natural light..the pandas that is :smile:

I know, It is strange to me..I have holes on all sides and the SGFC is in an open clean room. I mist first then fan for about a minute almost and I fan from 4-6 times a day. So im not sure whats up with the skinny mushrooms, they were skinny pins from a first flush that had a poor earlier setup..then I adjusted the perlite, moved the SGFC into my room instead of a closet and started fanning/misting more...and the skinny pins still matured somewhat thicker, but still skinny. I have four fresh cakes in the SGFC also, so im keeping an eye on how they develop.

is something maybe clogging up the bottom holes? large pieces of perlite or soemthing?

and there's no need to fan unless you've misted. fanning is not fae.

I poked the bottom holes with a pen now and none looked clogged up. And yes, I only fan after I mist..about 4 times per day.

They started out with poot FAE so you probably won't see improvement until the next flush.

Thats what I was thinking, they grew alot faster then the earlier first pin flush. I think the next flush will be thicker and especially the new cakes that are in the chamber. I was happy to get abunch of skinnies so quickly at least :smile:

Here are some of the Mexicubes this evening. Skinny pins still on the new cakes and some aerial mycelium, but im thinking I birthed them a little too soon. The next flushes should be thicker :smile:

hmm did you dunk those? they look like they were fruiting low on moisture
do you mist regularly? take us through your procedure maybe we can break it down

Sure, I dunked 24 hours. I mist about 4-5 times a day, sometimes 6 if I have insomnia and I fan after misting. I live in a tropical climate, so my humidity is 100% here (outside of the fruiting chamber). The chamber is a proper SGFC, with 5 inches of perlite.

Yeah sounds like you did everything on point. Very good, hand-fanning after misting helps. I'd say they were probably stunted a little initially from lower fae but you did the right thing and they picked up a good bit. Also keep in mind sometimes this stuff does happen when you do everything right cause with multispore the genetics is random those but those can still turn out to be decently potent. With what you've learned, I'm sure you'll get some nice flushes coming up. another tip too if you'd like you can set cakes in a dish with a little water they'll absorb it up for better fruiting. happy growing :smile2:

Thats a 5th flush shroom of the Mexicube. I have 10 jars of Corumba Brazil colonized that i'll be dunking in about a week.

Harvested one of my best cakes today, Corumba Brazil. It weighed 62 grams fresh, pretty good for a half pint cake.
