Question about increasing FAE and WTF is That?
    #21308913 - 02/21/15 03:24 PM (9 years, 10 months ago)

Hi,

So my first grow using PF Tek was pretty successful.  Here's the Grow log .  I have a question about increasing FAE to get some meatier/thicker shrooms.  I understand the reason I had small fruits was insufficent FAE.  I was fanning and misting 5-6 times per day.  I was thinking either drill more holes, but I thought I had enough or leaving a ceiling fan on low to increase circulation  Here's a pic of the SGFC. 

Also, been a little worried about contams.  Anybody know WTF this is?  Referring to the growth or whatever on the one cap.

Thank you all.  You're extremely helpful!

KC

Drilling more holes would lead to more misting, a better tactic would be better placement. Less blocking all the holes = More FAE.

Is your SGFC elevated off whatever it's sitting on, or is it sitting directly on a counter or something?

First thing you need to do is stick a nail in your penis hole. That should help.

Make sure the holes on bottom aren't clogged with dust and your perlite is moist. Clogged holes and dry perlite can cause lower FAE because the circulatory stem breaks down.
