Sorry dude, but that tub looks :eek:

What was your procedure? Did you bring that sub to proper field capacity and how many spawn jars did you use?

Okay so I'm just starting up. Posted a thread and got told that I was better off with a Mono than a SGFC. What is the difference if you dont mind me asking. Don't mean to change the subject of the thread.


--------------------
"We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that. We want to live by each other’s happiness - not by each other’s misery. We don’t want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone. And the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way. To those who can hear me, I say - do not despair. The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed - the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress.

The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish."

Mono's get better yields but require a pc and good sterile tec, SGFC have BRF cakes that don't need pc'ing and are usually a good choice for noobs to still get fruits and also practice good sterile tec. Check the search bar to find pics and see the differences.

Frank's 12 steps to shrooms is a good read on spores to monotubs with more detail

Wait..so you used 1 quart spawn for every 10 quarts sub? That's why it's not colonizing strongly enough. You want a 1:1 to 1:2 ratio for the fastest colonization times.

It could still make it, doesn't look like cobweb yet.

Read up on Frank's teks, the links are above.

Yeah definitely aim for an equal sub/spawn ratio next time and you should see full colonization in 4 to 6 days when using coir.

And I see a skinny white pin there. That's not a good sign. Pinning before full colonization of the substrate usually indicates a certain level of bacterial contams. I would work on getting the next tub done right.

1:1 and 1:2 are considered high ratios, 1:10 is pushing it but not the reason this failed,
there's something nasty in there that made the mushrooms pin in a fight for survival.

it also looks dry as fuck.

ok, so no point to give it a week or 2 more ? does everything looks dry or just the light parts ?  (just a tiny layer where the black bag got folded) read something about removing the pinning, or just put it in "bloom" right now ? not sure what to do since it my first time,

Thaks for the help so far

one time have to be the first :wink:
