2 quarts of fully colonized oats/rye added to 325 g coco coir on 4/28. Coco coir was rehydrated in a cooler using 2050 g boiling water. Coir was allowed to cook in cooler for over 24 hours. 26 watt cfl placed on top.

5/2/17

5/3/17

May 3, 2017 grow expansion. 66 qt tub is 3 qts B+ in 650 g coir and 27 qt tub on left is 2 qts Golden teacher mixed with 325 g coir.


Today on 5/3/17
Operations were expanded today using an old bathroom fixture and 26 watt cfl bulbs. These bulbs are scarce these days as they are being phased out due to mercury contents.

Thank you. I just got going after some pf tek cakes some 15 years ago. Ended up having to find some place for my beer brewing stuff as the shrooms have taken over the room or rack at least.

Did you use a vermiculite casing? What other changes have you made?

Update on 27 qt unmodified B+ tub.
Today I found a few small side pins and the surface looks "knotty" spawn run started with 2 quarts B+ on 4/28.
Is this the point where I should be removing the lid for extra FAE?
Why are there a few side pins? Reading bodhistta posts lead me to the impression that having light above the bin and FAE discouraged side pins and encouraged vertical growth. Previously posted photo of my setup setup is shown directly below.

Pics taken 5/8. 10 days into spawn run.

Avoiding side pins isn't a easy task for a first rodeo. That 5/8 picture could be a bit more moisture beads on the surface
You'll eventually come to know intimately how things should look and feel
You can flip the lid whenever you need to. I do it at ~80% colonization

Ohh man, I have had the lids upside down for FAE the whole run! Just to confirm, all I do to start fruiting conditions is flip the lid? I misted the tub this morning bc the coir looked dry and brown I have some GT and Corumba varieties also in tubs. The Corumba tub has 7 ms qt jars to 1 brick 650 g coir block. The spawn jars had a variety of mushroom smells with a few smelling woodsy. Some jars had no odor at all. The corumba tub surface looked dry this morning so it got some misting along with all my other tubbed up beauties. I started the corumba tub just a few days ago.
So lessons from this post:
1.) Flip lid after 80% colonization 2.) Dont over mist 3.) Practice makes perfect.

1. Flip lid when you feel like it, youll develop skill trying and learning things
2. Yes, also don't under mist if you need to mist. No two houses are the same
3. Exactly

My tub ended up drier than I thought. Will add more Water at spawning. Fruits were stumpy.

 Added 2q water last night to tub, all fruits stretched out nicely this morning. More pics when I get home.

Are there some visual clues that indicate a lid flippin' is needed or is it strictly colonization progress?
