Probably the best picture I could take with my iphone5s..

weird fluffy spots on the mycelium, and the condensed water droplets didn't evaporate or get absorbed for 3 hours.

It looks properly hydrated tho. If you can keep them looking like that 24/7, you'll be rockin it

It's been 3 hours since I've last misted them.. maybe even 4, and that's with the lid completely off. I'm thinking I should do something with my ambient RH.

Nah. Sounds good to me :smile:, just keep doing what you're doing. I mist bulk once a day, and cakes 2-3 times a day. They should last after misting 4-12 hours.

Well I'm trying to keep them as happy as I can, tending(fanning, misting, making observations etc.) them every half hour.
Though I'm concerned about contamination, too much FAE or overmisting or some cat hair getting into the chamber :laugh:

It'll be fine. Any contams at this point will be because of either fruiting when it isn't colonized, or you had a hidden contamination throughout the entire colonization time. As long as it was 100%, never blame a contamination on your environment. Work on inoculating with something clean as balls(agar work), sterilizing properly, and having proper techniques. I like to put trays on the table in my dirty kitchen as a center piece. I've never had anything contaminate from it

Cakes are pretty well protected by the mycelium network so no need to worry about contams. If you are eager to work, instead of driving yourself crazy tending to those cakes, start another project to occupy your time.

This is one cake about 3 hours later.

Are those fuzzy button like spots normal? Am I just gonna witness the mycelium grow again? :laugh:



Those sure look like knots to me, right at the top.  They seem to like forming around the joints on cakes for some reason IME.

I have an idea, My RH in the house is actually 85%, so the evaporation and SGFC FAE doesn't seem to be that effective, will that dramatically slow down the growth? can I take the "lid" off of the SGFC?

On a side note. I have two timers, one ultrasonic humidifier with a fan and a dehumidifier, I wonder if...




Just chill, nothing is going wrong.  Looks like you are providing sufficient fruting conditions, beyond that the mushrooms to determine at their own pacing.


--------------------


I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister.  I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave.  I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent.
Triggered yet?

Only a square would say "a cube is a cube."


No, this does not look right...

Didn't go from MS syringe inoculation to fruits in under two weeks. :kaboom: :suicide: :cruelworld:

At this rate I won't make it and will probably have to leave even before the first harvest. 4 days of absolutely no activity, even though they are receiving a lot of care ;(

They can prolly go from knotts to fruits in like 9 days, you have 16.  Remember, you basically skipped consolidation.  Supposedly when that's done, they may just sit there and then fruit when they're ready.

Post a picture of your cake after misting.  Also, don't be afraid to just poke it and see if it feels dry.

I remember pasty saying once that if his cakes finish abnormally fast, he does a 2 week consolidation instead of 1. The consolidation period is still important, and will help retain moisture right up until pinning

Well that boat has sailed. And I think I'm starting to see some bruising that would have happened out of nowhere. Or maybe they just got fed up with standing there and started to develop mold.

Mycelium develops a blue hue when it becomes stressed. It could be from over misting or from an increased dehydration rate
