Just wanted to thank everyone for the help a few weeks back! I'm happy to report our increased FAE and extra lighting has yielded this big momma:

I know it's not the monster a lot of you guys grow but it's our biggest yet! Any bets on it's weight, haven't harvested it... yet

I just started some bags myself, on sawdust. I hope to turn out as good as yours.

235g! (8.3oz) Also realized we gotta clean our scale :P
MidnightMaraude: We set our exhaust fan to turbo 24/7 and added two extra fans to move air around the rooms. Huge difference in quality and size of fruits. Now to figure out what to do this winter

Will it take a lot to get the temps up to 45 or 50°?

We're not sure, we ran a 1000w heater 24/7 last Jan/Feb for our 8x6 fruiting chamber with our new 10x20 space I'm afraid to crunch the numbers :P.

Nice cluster man! Gives me some inspiration. What are your current grow room temps? So are you now using your HRV and a secondary intake fan or just the heat exchanger?

Temps are in the 60-70 range and we are running our hrv on turbo (120+ cfm) and have two stationary fans running one at ground level to push the CO2 heavy air towards the exhaust and a higher one spreading the fresh air around. Both of the stationary fans made a VERY noticeable difference in the quality of the fruits (thanks solarity!).
Here's our primordia and fruiting room today, have over 60 bags fruiting and only 20 in primordia

Looking good man! what is the weight on each of those bags? That looks like a nice manageable size. Whats your ballpark yield off each bag?

Bags are ~28" tall and weigh in at ~8lbs each. We're getting about 1.5 - 2 lbs depending on our supplementation. We can fit 150-200 bags in the primordia room and 90 in the fruiting room.

Could you explain what you mean by primordia room? I'm assuming your talking about a colonization room....

We use them interchangeably, I like primordia since it seems less aggressive :P Plus Stamets uses it.
