First grow, B+ pf tek

Hey guys, I'm Case. i recently fell in love with mycology and have been having tons of fun learning and doing everything and i have found a lifelong hobby in this for Psilocybin Species and Edible species alike. this forum has been great as far as teaching me everything i could possibly want to know so thank you all in this wonderful community!. but this is my first grow using B+ Spores from a sponsored vendor in a SGFC.
Here is my SGFC dont mind the stickers, got it from my girlfriend :P free is the best, and thats a 10$ "grow light" from walmart behind it, somewhere around 6500k i must say for 10 bucks and its exactly as long as most storage tubs, its a great light for beginners.

and here is some pics of the two surviving cakes out of 12 sadly some were lost to contams, two stopped growing at like 25%, and the others didn't do anything at all.


there are 22 pins on the one cake and about 8 on the other, they get misted every time i think they look like they need it and they are doing pretty well, im very proud of them!.
i got some pre-sterilized bag of rye seed from a shroom supply and a bag of the casing mix they have so i can start some bulk , they have great prices and fast shipping so they are worth a look if you are into pre-made bags, i also have 12, pint WBS Jars made up with SHIP,tyvek and polyfill (the works). and now I'm waiting on a Syringe of GTs and two vendors pick syringes from one of the sponsored vendors , so y'all will be seeing more from me and i hope i can make some friends on here so i can really talk to some people that also love this wonderful hobby we love.

awesome so what do y'all think? do they look good, is the SGFC good looking? it's built to spec, i think i should add some more perlite and even it out next time its used, i do the lights on all day and then turn it off when i go to sleep, and how big do you think those will get before they are ready to pick?

How big they get depends on genetics and environment... If it's built to specs and got it elivated at least 6" of the ground than 6" away from walls then your ok on that end

So, I took these pics for this post, and y'all know what I'm talking about when I say they have already grown since this thread started, i love watching these guys pin and grow!, It's like a live timelapse. i think one day i wanna get to like a level 3/4 trip and watch shrooms grow all night when i have some in a mature state.

I just started my first grow tonight as well! Also B+ , 3 jars... I also inoculated 3 jars with P.E. Spores unfortunately 1 jar broke on me! I tried to save it by quickly moving substrate to another container ASAP although it was a sterile as can be as I used a homemade glovebox but I wouldn't be surprised if there are contaminates. I still have some P. cub Brazil spores and PNW Cyanescens both syringes. I need to decide on the best method to grow the Cyannescens as I am a noob but I've been doing my homework last cpl months studying like I'm gonna have a Final on this information! Any suggestions for a noob friendly method for Pacific NW Cyanescens via spore syringe? Thanks.
This is also my first post here but I've been a lurker for years... Love this site!

Thanks, I have yet to start the Cyanescens but I birthed the 2 PE cakes and 3 B all genetics from a sponsor of shroomery. It has been 6 days in the FC and still no pins. I only dunked cakes for a cpl hours because I was time deprived and wanted to have the cakes in FC before I was gone for a cpl days. I had my trusted roommate mist and fan. In a TEK I have it said you can birth without dunk and roll just do it after every flush thereafter. I fan and mist about 6 times a day I mix indirect sunlight and some led 6500 light. Is it typical to not see any pins as of 6-7 days? Here are some pics...

Yes it's typical, but they need more FAE and more moisture....a few hours compared to a 24 hour soak is not good....should have rolled them in dry verm......looks like you should have more holes in the chamber.....is there 1/4 holes very 2" on all 6 sides in a grid pattern?

Thanks pussyfart. Love the handle btw! But the TEK I originally received said I didn't need the shotgun holes but I already had done my homework so I was aware of RR's TEK of which is way better than most. I initially had sparse 1/4 holes maybe half the amount I should. I am making more as I write this. I will dunk for 24 hrs and roll in the dry verm after 1st flush... My cakes look good otherwise in your or anyone else's opinion? I love this site, have studied the reference materials and appreciate everyone's contribution.... Thank you

Update I have pins finally as of 2 days ago but they don't seem to be growing fast at all. I hope not all aborts.. I don't have ideal conditions where I live but I'm doing my best. My most difficult attribute is keeping my temp below 80 and steady dark and light. My 6500k lights broke so I use indirect sunlight but it never gets completely dark where I live. The FAE is ok. If this 1st grow of mine produces something worthwhile I will be excited. I already have decided my next move is PNW Cyanescens in a monotub... As summer is coming to a close temps will be easier to obtain I hope.
