Hmmm, could be the bowing but its not like its pooled. The droplets are all on top of the myc but its def a possibility. I was running a fan a few hours a day as the fuzzy feet were occurring even with the lid flipped. The bottom watering and misting seems to have helped though. Half of them have started really sprouting and growing with good color while the rest have gone an off white and seem to have aborted.

Any update on this? That pinset is 🔥🔥🔥

That is a nice set but something about the way the caps look makes me think they all just quit for some reason.

Having them stalled for 5 days does seem pretty extreme. What a shame, I would be heartbroken.

I bottom watered about 400 ml, let sit for a few hours and dumped the excess. Misted heavily several times a day since and have left the lid flipped. Even with the lid flipped fuzzy feet and stalks but not as bad for sure. As you can see the original pin set has all shut down but in between other fruits are going strong. Just gonna wait til they pop their tops and cut it all down

pinning started 2 days ago, everyday new pins pop up, very slow but steady
just misted:
 it starts to shrink and separate from the walls.
i mist it once or twice a day when the sides of the tub are dry. also do a little fanning after, since i thought there might be a lack of fae in my closet. experimenting with 90 degree flipped lid but i think that drops humidity too much.

Mushrooms grow from houseplants. People really overestimate the water content and humidity needs of mushrooms. Especially cubes which grow on the gulf coast and can handle dry days and hot days pretty well. Error dry rather than wet especially with this species

Ignore the tub sides and dont use it as an indicator that you need to mist.

That misunderstanding is the root problem of most new grows i see fail.
I had a tub the other day that was ridiculously over fc. Prob 15-20%
I was like wtf was i thinking. Must have been really high.
I broke the sub down the middle to split it and then flipped it over to see what would happen. The bottom dried pretty quickly [which after flipped became the surface and from the way the bottom gets molded by the tub bottom] and ended up fruting these huge monster shrooms lol
Had i not done that im pretty sure i would have gotten a bunch of short fucks i wouldn't even have harvested unless i was going to make tea dose or freez in juice.

End the mindset that there is a schedule to mist. Youll learn to look at the tub and make a decision.
For example, If its dry then mist. If its moist then dont.
One of the basic root principles as a cultivator is to create and maintain optimal conditions. You dont do certain things just to make a routine out of it.
You do things like mist because it needs it [dry]. You increase FAE because its [wet]. You leave it be because its just right, perhaps.
If it dries too quickly you can usually suspect its getting too much air. So reduce the FAE. If it sits there damp af you might not be getting enough FAE, so adjust to allow more. Etc.
Youll get to a point after a few grows that youll find you dont need to apply any intention at all because youve figured out what works best by the way you do things.
I late case most of my unmod tubs. I leave my tops off during the light on cycle and i mist accordingly. When the light goes off i mist lightly and place the lid in upside down. Sometimes i place the lid on right side up. It just depends.
Youll figure it out.
If you want it easier a traditional mono tub is much more autonomous and self-reliant. I like the unmods because they teach better lessons.

I see that you are using a grain soak agar tek. Even though countless others have had success with this, I could not get much of anything to germinate on grain soak agar, and just like you I had no contams either on the plates. I mainly use MEA or PDA, and have no problem germinating with the exact same sources and methods as with the grain soak.
Someone else may explain why this could be, or have a better solution, but I'd be willing to bet you'll have success on another agar tek.
Thanks for the tips! I still have a bunch of agar and plates left, but after I burn through these with no luck I'll definitely try your recipes.
I think I got something to grow, but honestly I'm not sure what-- the growth that I transferred was insanely wispy and translucent and turned into this:

I also inoculated some other plates and this bizarre thing started to grow. It's spiky but some of the spikes are on the agar too. Any idea what it could be?

When I was isolating my MS syringes on agar I found the best results from a single small drop in the center. Using a loop seems to be mostly for bacteria cultures and for myc really just makes a big mess that is hard to take a transfer from the edge as when it grows out it is all over the place. I also use a light malt extract and agar combo for my plates that has been working really well. 10g LME and 7.5g Agar per 500ml, boil briefly and strain through cheesecloth before putting in your media bottles, pressure cook 20 minutes and pour at 120 degrees. Store those bad boys upside down in stacks and condensation won't be an issue as well.

You're supposed to transfer growth before it's all over the place. And the most important thing with germination plates is to get some growth that isn't contaminated. You'll do transfers from the edge after that transfer from the germination plate.

You're not doing it right then
   
Streak plates are the nicest way to start spores imo especially because they're anything but messy.

What’s going on with that middle pic did you just rub the foil with the spores on it across the surface or something??
