Do these jars look ok ? updates: BUCKETS, Pasty's MINIMONO
    #21971280 - 07/20/15 03:34 PM (8 years, 6 months ago)

ok so I have some jars, all from MS, going on about 4 weeks now. I don't know if they are doing well, looks to me a bit different than all the other pics I've seen here.

Here it goes:

yea they look a little wispy but are you using oats or rye?

almost looks like oyster mycelium before it thickens up but I think they're fine give them a good smell before spawning them.

all my rye looks the same. I believe it has to do with to low of a water content. i have noticed with wbs being drying you get wispy mycelium and when its wetter (or the correct water content) you start getting into rhyzo growth.
just what ive noticed on the past 20 or so jars ive done while locking in my teks

Looks like the same results I got from multispore inoculation.  Takes forever, seems like nothing is happening for a long time, made me doubt it was working at all.  (It eventually did.)

Try inoculating with an agar isolated monoculture next time.  You should see much better results.

updates: so I g2g-ed some jars, and spawned others to 2 minibuckets of CVG that have been sitting tight for 8 days now. Do they look ok ? When can I introduce fruiting conditions ? It's my first time at this :smile:



There is some condensation on my shower caps I see, but I'm afraid to take them off until I feel it's the right time. There are a lot of wispy white thingys on top so I figured i'll give it a few more days then switch to fruiting.

Eternalpeace: I tried inoculating with agar on 2 jars and both got contamed, now have 5 or 6 more and they're looking good and going fast, hopefully this time i didnt fuck up :smile:

Hmm read around a bit and saw a lot of people let their bulk grows consolidate for like a week. Should I give these guys another week? I am getting impatient but I've been trying to get to this point for a month and half now so I'm not gonna fuck up now just because I couldn't wait for a bit more :laugh:

Ok back with another question. Checked one my jars today and I can see a greenish tint on some grains. I tried to snap an image but this stuff is hard with the phone no macro lens.





Right there top center. It seems greenish, but not intense green, and it's also covered in what seems to be mycelium so idk.

Ok so my shroomies decided to answer my questions for me :smile:



Check top center-left :smile:. It's now official, after 2 months of reading and trying my hand, I have grown my first shroom rofl. Getting past my excitement, this guy showing his head so quick could be a bad sign ? I quickly removed the tape from the top holes and stuffed some poly lightly, and for the bottom holes just used micropore tape.

thanks, but I am concerned. One of the mushies going ahead of the pack while it was supposed to be colonizing means that I messed up with something. Either there is too much evaporation in my buckets, which triggered early pinning, either there is bacteria and the mushies are trying their best to fruit fast. Am I wrong ?

Well there is some yellow piss, not a lot of it tho, and from what I read around here, it can be bacteria contam or it can be nothing at all. Damn straight they were lacking fae they were in colonization/consolidation mode, and a guy just decided to fruit, I'm just trying to figure out why he did that. Will come back with some pic in 10 mins.

Should I mist it a bit ? I dont understand why just that one popped up. Are the white dots knots ? Or maybe this will be my one shroom bucket haha

the tiny white knots are knots :wink:

the larger lumps of white is probably a reaction to bacteria, just give it lots of fae!

Ok so my first mini bucket is coming along nicely, other pins have started showing. Gave it lots of FAE (pulled the poly out of some top holes). There are some issues however:

1. The first pin, who is now bigger, is showing brusing on the stem beneath the cap.

https://anonfiles.com/file/8337533a4260cf3238302eba0a668869
2. There is this orange blobby thing in my bucket (top-center-right)

https://anonfiles.com/file/f4f49332ba4a2b545a3909860464c911

Thoughts ?

More humidity most likely, or more FAE.

I really wish pictures were working.

Not anymore. It used to be like that 2 days ago before I increased FAE. I did check it by hand tho and it feels wet

Give it a mist. You want those beads of moisture there. If they're disappearing it means there's too much FAE.

alright ill give it a few puffs and stick some poly in a hole. Will the bruising go away ? Do you think that's the reason for the blob as well ?

updates: the first pin has just stalled and has not recovered from bruising :frown: there are a lot of other pins forming now tho :laugh:
beads of moisture on the surface, I give the buckets a light mist and fan once a day.

some pics :

First bucket with the bruised pin


Second bucket which has started pinning as well (this one had a smaller spawn:bulk)



Mini-mono - this one has started pinning as well :thumbup:


How am I looking ? Can heat be a factor for the bruising ? There's a fucking heatwave happening around here and it's hot as balls. Room where these are is the coolest in the house but i think temps still go into 30+ celsius.

That tub looks like it has a lot of problems.

Yeah, pick the guy who's ready. Both of them look pretty contamed. Maybe bacteria.

Really ? To me the tub seems the sharpest of the bunch. But yea it's probably bacteria, I think there's something wrong with how I prep my jars. What's worse i got like 5 g2ged from the stuff i used to spawn to the tub and to the buckets so I guess those are gonna get cased and see what happens.
