I'll post pics of the pins this afternoon. I was happy to see them, but my wife did a "mushroom dance" and everything when she saw them (it was cute, really).

I did not know perlite came in different "sizes". Though, the organic perlite I got from Amazon seemed a bit smaller than the one I got from Lowes. Who knows. For now, I am just going to do four more showers and hope it retains moisture and mist and fan like crazy. Now that two cakes have pinned, I'm excited to move it along.




Lmao no joke my sweetheart did a mushroom dance too. That's awesome.
Yeah the perlite comes coarse ground fine ground and super coarse ground. I got the super coarse ground thinking it would be better but I think it was just counter productive.

undying: the shower idea is good to get your perlite re-hydrated if it was real dry but after that you should be ok with just taking a qt jar or whatever of water and dripping it all around in there so you dont have to move the cakes around and go through the whole shower process all the time. you shouldnt have to do it often unless your spot is real dry though.

and tagyo just something i caught earlier tahoe was saying sarcastically that fae seems to be your personal nemesis, not a nemesis to the hobby. just thought i'd bring up some old shit for posterity's sake

I assumed it was very dry considering my tub was dry in the morning. I'm gonna keep showering until it sustains itself. It may be my hard water drying it out as well. Who knows.

Me and Tahoe have been going back and forth on different threads so it was an accumulation.

wtg glad you got your pins!!

UPDATE:

The two cakes with pins are growing even more, but the three without pins are still, well, without. I may dunk them again while I am at work to get them going. This morning the cakes were dry again and so were the sides of the chamber. I picked up the chamber to move it to the shower and water spilled on me. I ran my hand thru some of the perlite and it was very damp still. So, I just gave it a mist and a fan.
I dunno what to do. I really just think my spores were shit. Out of the ten jars I knocked up recently, only 4 show life and they are going very slowly. Its quite discouraging...

dont worry and start a new batch,try again, why your waiting on these 1s to keep your mind busy.

and no need to dunk the cakes again they should have enough for a flush.

just mist as needed and re wet the perlite as needed.

give the other cakes a day or too now conditions are better and they prob recover and will catch up.

Keep those cakes going until they produce and start a new project.

UPDATE:

So, things are going well. Two cakes are going strong and two more just pinned. One cake has nothing going for it, but it may in time. The funny thing is, two of the cakes should be producing white shrooms, but all 4 are producing brown ones. It's odd, but I'm glad they are going. Its actually exciting seeing them going. I was pretty discouraged but watching them grow day by day is awesome. I think I may give it another go after all. Attached are the current state of the cakes. Thanks for all your help, guys.
