I can't tell if there is green on your tub? But if not then I'd put it into fc, must and fan with some ambient light from a window or something, or a small light. I usually don't have to put any of my grows into fc for they pin without me telling them to.
BTW what bulk substrate are you using?

I wonder as well, as this spawn was contaminated in the first stages of incubation, any normal cultivator would toss, but i am a firm beliver that mycelium can conqeur other competive molds, as i believe this one has, the smell of sour feet was present in the begining phases of incubation, as the time went on i noticed it had no faul odor, as well as no abnormal discolration in the spawn mixture upon inoculation to bulk gtg, i used rye berrie mixed with vermiculite,and a tad bit of gypsum as my bulk spawn, i lost the link to this tek, i will try and post asap, i inoculated 60cc of liquid culture into a 2.5 to 3 lb spawn substrate mixture. Im not sure if its contamonated, it smelt only of strong mushrooms when i did the gtg... It is now put into fc... I hope it fruits. I wish i used a layer of casing as i was out of verm...

It honestly doesn't look bad, if there is no foul smell it should be frosty. Just make sure you must so the top layer always looks glossy, but not too wet.
BTW you don't need a casing layer, people add it to keep moisture in.

I understand mycelium will fruit even if fc are not optimal..So your saying, theres no need to supply proper fruting condions such as,fae,temp,humidity,etc? Or are you stating that you wait upon pinning before introducing fc? Sorry just just trying to figure what your saying. I had a grow once under terrible fruting conditions and it was some meaty ass caps.. Altough i wouldent waste my efforts on anything less then optimal fruiting condtions,if the mycelium is strong enough it will produce, not sure on how many flushes theyl get though.

You should still put into fruit condidtions no matter what, but I've just never had any situations where I had to intro. I usually wait until pinning to fruit but that's just me. Hopefully this works out, keep us updated.

Heres a update for my monotub, im only seing a couple fruits ):, but it looks to be picking up slowly.. maybe i need to let co2 in more, as i have riged some perlite at field capacity wrapped in coffie fillters strong ith tire wire and it seems too keep up humidity. Any pointers on getting a better pinset? [url=https://files.shroomery.org/files/15-27/570898179-0630151701.jpg] [/url

This thread is filled with so much misinformation I don't even know where to begin. YOU HAVE GRAINS SPROUTING FROM YOUR SUBSTRATE.
that said you also have pins. May god have mercy on your tub. At least you may get "something"

I stand by my comments.
I am glad you will get something from the tub as I said.

It's truly is amazing.......and he is defensive to the end that he "knows" what he is doing.....Fuck me
With the wealth of knowledge available here, how people walk in with this kind of attitude and approach is astounding...
