Bill_Oreilly's Humidity Dome 1st flush(PE) 1

So as you guys may remember, I posted a couple pics of a tray I put in the humidity dome. Here is the flush of me using the whole original tray that comes with it.

By far this is my favorite fruiting chamber to use. I tested It next to a SGFC with trays in it. I know SGFC's were meant for cakes, but the dome produced better flushes.

Hi, Bill:
Glad to see you posting. I read in another thread you had been banned.
Those fruits look like they would have benefited from more FAE. They're elongated and have small caps. Got a pix of your humidity dome - or was that in another thread?

Hey N.B.! Yeah I won the "ban lottery" so I got banned for a week. today is my first day back. (but I did get a 20-something day ban in the pub because Enlil is biased towards me because I have him on ignore, so he literally looks for small petty reasons to ban me)
I don't think I posted a whole picture of the exact dome I used for this batch, but I will. Its basically just a regular humidity dome with 2 squares cut out on the sides and one much bigger/longer square on the long-side of the dome, stuffed with polyfill.
See man heres what happened...along with the holes I made myself, theres 2 sets of 4 holes(making there be 8 holes in total on the top) at the top of the dome. you can open or close them like a vent.
My grow was going very slowly and something was obviously wrong. The pins formed but they were just growing SO slow. I knew I had to fix something. So after trying a couple of things I finally realized that monotubs do not have holes on the top...
this made me think to close the 8 holes at the top. Once I did that..WOW...night and day...they started growing like wildfire. I couldn't believe such a simple and small change could make such a difference. So then I closed the vents on all my domes and whaddya know..SAME RESULTS! Grew like wildfire...literally went from small mushrooms to veil-broken in 24 hours.
So yeah...I have no idea what to make of this. I know it mat look like they need more FAE but perhaps there is a different problem. I don't see how I could give them anymore fresh air because the 3 holes I cut in the dome are huge.

and also, they may look elongated with small caps because they are small mushrooms because the substrate wasn't thick(also maybe because when the pins were forming and a little bit after I had the vents open and they were growing real slow like I mentioned). I should have took some pics of my other tray's second flush...25-35 gram(wet) monsters. They looked totally normal with no white on the stems and everything.
heres a tray from before

and pics of the same flush in the OP

Killin it! Nice job Bill.
Although your design is atypical. I can't argue with your results.
Good to see the ban lotto hasn't lost its magic. After all these years.
Seriously?

Why than you, kind sir 
I really love using these humidity domes as fruiting chambers. It took me a little bit to figure out how to dial them in, but I feel like I have it down now. Never going to use another fruiting chamber again!

oh yeah and let me just add the only reason the pic in the OP is dark and gloomy is because I snapped it at night. Otherwise the mushrooms would look nice and bright like the pic of the tray a couple posts up.

^^^LOL!
Nice to have you back, Bill. Your dome looks pretty clever. I tend to go for complex methods because I love to tinker. That shows you how many and varied a method can still be made to lead to success.
Anyway, welcome back.

oh trust me its great to be back. I truly realized just how addicted I am to this place over the past week...and stupid me I wouldn't have entered the damn ban lottery if I knew it meant I would be banned from the whole site...I was under the impression you just got banned from the mush cultivation sub-thread. oh well, I learned my lesson..
and yeah I certainly want to start doing more complex things now. I guess I just wanted to know for sure that I could grow anytime I wanted to, so now that I have this pretty much locked down, I think im ready to start having fun and really utilizing the hobby for what it is.
boy...and lemme tell ya...PE is the best cubensis strain hands down. Every single person that has tried these has said they rival pan cyan in potency. obviously not AS strong as pans, but certainly stronger than regular cubes. Everyone who ate an 8th has had bad trips that ended up with them in the corner crying their eyes out for 6-10 hours 
2.5 grams im told feels like 3.5-4 grams and gives a very solid trip. I haven't eaten any but I am very excited to do so. Its either I eat some of this liquid L I have yet to try or I go for the PE.
thanks for the compliments guys I love you all

i used to do something similar with something like this using dung/straw cased. domes i had were more rounded though. i messed around with some of them cutting some holes on the sides with polyfil stuffed in. it works.

^^ did you like it? Would you recommend it?
For me, its the best. I mean the only negative I see with it is having to spray the sides of the dome and the substrate to keep humidity at 99% and to keep the substrate damp...unlike your average dialed-in mono

if you only need a few trays its fun to mess with. i would not do a ton of bulk using the domes/flats.
i fill them to about 1/4" below the surface with 2 quarts of colonized grain per tray. once colonized i place a 1/4" casing on top. not much maintenance needed. i do like the seedling flats used for a grow room. it utilizes surface area very well.

2 quarts??
I use 1 quart. PLUS I have enough leftover to make one of those small trays I posted.
2 quarts is wasting a lottt of precious myc.
edit: I spawn to bulk(compost/straw) do you spawn or just use straight myc?

I can attest to the potency of PE.
I gave a 1/4 oz to my father-in-law and brother-in-law.
My FIL ate 3.5 grams and said everything "looked like soup" every time he looked out the window.
My BIL made a tea out of about 3 grams and said he was close to calling an ambulance. Spent most of the trip in the bathtub with his girlfriend babysitting him. 
I ate 2.5 grams last weekend and tripped waaaaaaay harder than I expected. It came on fast and hard too. Way faster and stronger than all the other cubes I have sampled. The anxiety was getting to me during the peak but I was able to calm down after awhile and enjoy myself after I got rid of all visual and audio stimulation (TV, music, etc). Took me a good 9 hours to fully come down.

ideally you want about 4oz dry per seedling flat. thats the goal. 2oz dry 2nd flush. yes spawn to dung/straw with colonized quart jars.

1st flush got me 25g dry
waiting on the 2nd flush now
I think 4 oz is setting the goal a little high, no? if you get 4oz off each flat then I commend you sir
