Hi guys, i have a mixture of thoughs on my grow. Its my first grow, did follow instructions etc.. I feel like something is wrong there. I got this grow kit on 05.18 and this is how it looks now.. I was expecting some more action after one week has passed... Strain is Ecuadorian. Should i worry or worry not?

for your next growth: after your success with fruiting mature mushrooms:
1-search "spore print tech" do it right and keep one 2-search for how to grow your own mushroom using "pf-tek" usually for noobs you will find a good one written by "evilmushroom666", or search for "bulk tek" which is more advanced. 3-watch the videos of www.mushroomvideos.com after getting a spore print and reading things here.
you would save more money and have an infinite supply of mushrooms and some people really enjoy the hobby. good luck.
wait for someone with more experience than me to help you with your grow kit.

It looks like it's doing pretty good to me! If I were you I'd try making your own trays, and then fruiting them in a sgfc. It's basically the pf tek with a few extra steps, but the steps are simple, and you get will get a lot more shroomies

Day 10, still no change. No sing of sickness or something, but im a bit worried about water. As you can see in the photos, there are a lot of water drops, on the surface of the white stuff too. 



Any thoughts?

Yeah you want water drops on the surface of the substrate its the evaporation of these constantly that is your main pinning trigger. If your surface gets too dry thats no bueno

I did 17 trays and it took me 30+ days to see all of them give first flush. This hobby is all about patience. My rule is as long as there's no molds, it'll eventually be good to go!
