Is your substrate drying out? Is this a mini or a full mono? You need more FAE in there.

The surface does not appear to have any moisture, it should be glistening with tiny water droplets. I would give it a light misting and re-adjust all your polyfill, and hopefully those fruits won't abort.

Looks dry, and I'm sure them will abort.

I'm sorry but if I didn't know you were talking about mushrooms I'd have to say, your choice in thread title sounds SUPER gay.

No offense against gays. But word choice, my man. I hope that was the point.

Cool I'll give a light misting. It's a full mono, I've got another thread going with all the details. I've been playing with the poly, left the top holes open because of the slight fuzzy feet.
And good thing we are on a mushroom forum then, lol.

Fuzzy feet is sometimes genetic.
I wouldn't worry about those.

Still, no harm in leaving the top holes open and just misting more.

I've also read that you shouldn't have to mistt a monotub. This is my first go so I was seeing if I got the field capacity right before I fucked with it.

He shows you it here. You can get a sub to field capacity and then overload it with FAE and dry it out to quick. Field capacity has to be coupled with good environment.

Yeah I decided for my first run not to case, and then subsequently case (I've got 10 jars I'm about to birth to spawn) so I can see for myself the difference. Part of the hobby I love is just seeing what little things make differences. When I started growing 5 years ago I fucked with everything I could to learn firsthand and get a real feel for them.

You don't have to mist a monotub if you have it dialed in perfectly. However, while you're dialing it in, and even after, if the mycelium says it's thirsty, you mist it. Some cultures will be thirstier than others, so what's dialed in for one thing might not work for another. Best of keeping a spray bottle near by specifically for misting so that it's not a pain in the ass. It's not like you REALLY plan on not looking at them for days at a time, is it? Half the fun is in checking at least once a day.

LABEL YOUR SPRAY BOTTLES.

I've had to mist my mono...This B+ culture seems particularly aggressive...and I'm no expert yet by any means...I use a small spray bottle I got at the dollar store (think it's a travel bottle for something) But it puts out a super fine mist...Works great.
