Golden Teacher Pins
    #23431366 - 07/11/16 07:02 AM (7 years, 6 months ago)

SWIM needs some advice. I guess I will use this thread as a log of a first time grow. SWIM is an an absolute noob. So, if this thread needs to be moved or is in the wrong place then apologies.

It's been about 7 days since the first pins were seen. Since then just more and more have shown up and the original cluster at the bottom hasn't grown at all. Is it possible to have too many pins? Also, is this a symptom of not enough oxygen? any advice is appreciate.
Regular pf tek setup, 12 on and off, fanning/misting every 3 or 4 hours,around 93 RH and 75F temp, holes in the bottom of terrarium etc., but i'm thinking maybe there aren't enough holes in the sides.

TLDR: does this look normal? is it possible to have too many pins for active growth?

Do you have 1/4" holes? Are they in a 2"x2" grid pattern on all six sides?

That cake is super wet, and it is pinning on the bottom because the microclimate is better between the cake and the lid... Rolling in verm, and having a proper built chamber would help with that... Ease up on the misting... Best you can do now is wait it out.

yeah like 9 said, the verm wouldve helped, but dont do it now, obviously. and now that you have pins that are that size, you might want to cut back on misting so much, that way they dont get waterlogged/bacterial blotch. it is easy to do. but good job, almost there :thumbup:

Yeah, that cake is super wet. You want to increase that FAE as much as possible.

It looks like you already got replies to the rest so I'll address that. Short answer - no, I don't believe so. The worst I've ever had from "too much" was mutant-looking mushrooms from them growing into each-other which to me wasn't a biggy.

I guess if someone cared how they looked it or didn't get enough fresh air exchange it might be bad but get that FAE in there and I don't see a problem.

Actually how they're growing, the grower will probably wind up with some neat looking clusters.

I remember my first set of pins. I was ecstatic.
Congrats to SWIY!

SWIM went home and snapped a pic of the SGFC on his lunch break.
Will definitely dunk and roll in fine verm for the remaining cakes. The one that is in there colonized way faster than the rest for some reason. SWIM had to order some verm online because they just don't sell it around her. even at the Tractor Supply place, which is surprising. He bought the jars with the substrate already mixed in online. SWIM will also stop misting so much. maybe twice a day is good? Thanks for the replies ya'll. it's really appreciated.

Where are all your holes?  From the pic I'm seeing maybe two. Unless I just can't make them out.

Don't swim here. Everyone know it means someone who is me.

Next time don't skip the dunk and roll technique (seen in the PF TEK)
The only two PF teks that are worth following are the lets grow mushrooms videos brf/pf TEK or the one posted here by evilmushroom666

No holes in the lid? The lid is too close to those cabinets all Six sides need 6-12 inches of space so air can flow around the holes you drilled

ok awesome. I will go put some holes in the lid and move it to a less restrictive area. Now that you mention it, it is probably not getting enough light under that cabinet like that. rookie move. Thanks again!

Just want to say thanks to the community for all the tips. Things have really taken off since i moved everything around and allowed more FAE. Won't be long now. I figure I will wait to birth the other cakes until this flush is done, so i can dunk and roll them all together. The last jar just fully colonized this morning. Everything still look normal to you guys?

Well here we go folks. Everything turned out ok for the first little test run. Time to dunk and roll all the cakes and do it again. Should be a pretty interesting weekend. :mushroom2::eek:
Thanks again for the help. This is a great forum.

Thanks for the greetings, man. It was almost shocking to wake up and see those. I had pins for a week and just a few little changes made them grow in like three days. They were way more golden and pretty looking than i thought they would be. Drying them out is kind of sad you know?

I definitely do know....I spend all this time forming a bond with my culture waiting for mushrooms to grow....then when they come....I gotta harvest them and that's it....very sad indeed

I think I had the same exact problem that you did in the beginning of your post. So how exactly did you get yours to start pinning? I had basically the same set up you did in the beginning of your post aside from an aquarium pump to help with the FAE.

Lol! Asking how he got them to pin like there's some magical secret. They pin when they want. They don't care what you do. You don't even have to do anything... Left this bad boy in my closet too long :hehehe:






You'll notice they never pin at the same time. They just pin when they like.
