Cobweb, normal, or something aweful?

First tub in a while.

Pesa print to agar to wbs to damien5050

It's day 4 and there's a bunch of this garbage. If it's cob I can fight it, right? I believe rr mentioned that but anything else is trash.

For real. At the very least let it grow in solitude. Maybe outside, and check on it every 12 hours. The thick white stuff around the uncolonized area in the middle. That does look very trichy, but the photo quality doesn't give it justice

You're right, those pics are terrible. I'll get some good ones tomorrow.

I'm pretty sure you're dealing with a lot of trichoderma in those pictures.

If it turns green get it out into the garbage asap. You don't want to increase the spore load of your home, it makes future projects harder.

sometimes you can cut parts of the substrate out on the outer edge away from the contamination epicenter, but this particular instance looks pretty well spread out throughout most of the substrate.

This cutting *sometimes* works if let's say, one lone grain decided to get trich on it in an isolated incident. Cutting wouldn't work in an instance where trich was in the spawn, and the trich then ended up spread throughout the entire tub.

OP, how is the tub looking today?

I'll get pics up shortly, I've been busy trying to whip up another batch or five.

Nah, looks like it has a good chance of making it :smile: no visible contaminations. It does look dry in the pics, but I'm again hoping that's photo quality. Recently colonized bulk substrates shouldn't look dry.

I'd say it'll be ready for fruiting in a couple days:)

Hey, don't chub me up just for fun :wink:  That makes me feel pretty good hearing that. I appreciate the time you took to give me advice.

the tub is pretty well moist, a nice condensation on all the walls but it's not raining.  I keep it in a big ass black plastic bag.  Usually my phone takes better pics but it's in the garage with a single 12 foot flouro.

The condensation on the walls don't matter, it's only an indication of temp difference between the inside and outside.

The only moisture that really matters it's what's in and on your substrate.

after closer inspection I have determined that it is well hydrated and there is often a very light spattering of "dew" on the substrate, both colonized and not. I'm hoping that's good lol

I appreciate that. For future grows, if I encounter anything like it, how long does it usually take to green up?

I don't see what the concern is, but let me share a bit of wisdom.  If it DOES start to go green, take it outside in your yard (I hope you have one!) and bury it in a hole exactly the dimensions of your substrate.  Put about 1/4" of soil on top, and water it.  Then cover it with a plastic milk crate to keep the rabbits squirrels off of it.  In a week you'll have some nice fruits in your outdoor grow, and will have avoided contamination of the grow area in your house.

I did this once and the "save" was amazing!  I ended up with a shit-ton of excellent mushies!

That sounds pretty cool, thanks for that tip.  The tub and it's sister tub are both doing pretty well. Fruiting happens tonight.

Unfortunately a lot of times it doesn't go green until a couple days after you actually put it in fruiting conditions. I'm not sure the white patches area mold but it wouldn't surprise me if it emerged from those sparse areas after fruiting. Or it could be fine I don't know. Good look OP.

I think in 4 - 5 days you are going to see an immense pin-set if your fruiting conditions are good.  :thumbup:

Looking forward to follow-up pix.  BTW...what strain is that?

Thanks for the confidence booster, I though for sure it was messed up.

The strain for the two going right now are PESA. Got the print from a really cool Gyo.

It's slowly but surely building an army. Getting fuzzy feet and I'm not sure how to fix it. I read that an increase of fae will do it but my top holes are already barely stuffed. The room is a constant 76.  It's fairly humid in the room due to swamp cooling.

Look on the bright side.  Previous concerns w/r/t contamination should be relieved.  Still no green meanies, so now it's all about providing suitable fruiting conditions.

High humidity and decent air exchange are key.  I know it's a tough combination to pull off...but, there are ways!  Personally, I use a reptile fogger, but I also live on the coast and it is humid as fuck here.  A dry day (outside) is 68% humidity.  No doubt our AC drops that down dramatically indoors, but that's why I have the fogger.

Lightly spray the walls and lid till they're misty twice daily (three if you can manage) w/o getting any over-spray on the substrate if your concern is humidity.  I think you can use even LESS wadding in the holes if FAE is your big concern.

N.B.

my thermo/hygro says it's 75f and 74% humidity.

I loosened the top holes just a tad more and adjusted the airflow in the room for more movement but no direct blowing.  Just looked in there again and if you can get real close you can see about a brillion pins starting to come up. 

many excite.

Sweet!  Very happy for you, Fheyr13.  Glad it worked out.  I hope to have some epic pix of my own small (3 liter) grow real soon...maybe 14 days or so.

Not done...but where I'm at as of today.  That's 3 liters of 50/50 HPoo and coir, about 75% colonized, so not yet ready for fruiting.  I used what purports to be a 5.7 liter plastic Sterlite shoe box storage container since my mushroom needs are quite small.  The bulk substrate is 3 1/2" thick and this is day 6 since I mixed in the spawn, so I seem to be right on schedule.  Strain is "Argentinian."



N.B.

LOL!  You should see it NOW!  I can't believe what a difference 10 lousy hours made.  It looks to be 100% colonized, although I'm going to leave it be for at least another three days (maybe more) and let it consolidate further before putting it into fruiting conditions.

I thought about casing it...but I have a reptile fogger so I'm not too worried about the sub drying out.  I'll cobble something together!

Lol makes sense 

The hippies across the street say they're great. Experienced psycon auto over 40.  1 gram each and they were totally body rocking. 

I'm fairly sure I don't want to eat shrooms ever again lol.

It's true, I find this hobby more entertaining than horticulture.
