Noob cakes
    #23504950 - 08/03/16 09:49 AM (7 years, 5 months ago)

Hi,

I'm a noob here.
I'm from the UK.
My work used to involve microbiology and aseptics so spores and being super clean are pretty much second nature. I also make small batches of microbrews, so

I've had a pretty interesting life involving a lot of travel.
I play a few instruments and spent much of my youth playing gigs in pretty crap bands. I was once briefly in a band called the Psilocybin Experience LOL. Those days involved quite a lot of experimentation.

I'm old now. Getting on for 50.
I started growing shrooms recently after reading a number of articles and studies touting the positive affects of mushrooms.

I'll leave it at that for now :smile:
Very pleased with my healthy looking cakes so couldn't resist posting a pic. These shall be going into my fruiting chamber within the next few days.

Leicester :O

Live near Leeds, but from Lincs a long time ago.
I frequented the Charlotte in Leicester back in the day. Haven't a clue if it's still there.

Nice alliteration though...

One of my mates is from Haselbury Plucknett. I was always jealous.

Nah, it's the lighting & a bit of vermic Had a look this morning.
I have fallen foul of mould with my 1st attempt (thanks to my son bursting in while I was inoculating). I had one good cake though.
2nd attempt was fine.

Below are my third attempt. BRF. I added coffee grounds plus gypsum & yeast nutrient that I use for beer. Spores seem to love that.

"Noob Cakes". So catchy!

Nice background! Growing shrooms is going to be super easy for you.

So fellow noob peeps...here are those 2 cakes now.

The cake that has sprouted is 2 days ahead of the second one colonisation-wise. A few mutants around the edge....I flipped the cake yesterday when I noticed it was pinning underneath.

I have to conclude my own version of plastic tek with BRF + coffee grounds + yeast nutrient + gypsum, has been a success.



Got 2 more cakes inoculated with Cambodian spores that are colonising at the speed of light....almost. Way faster than my first B+ (a bit slow), and those GTs above (pretty fast).

Bit of a learning curve thus far but all good with latest two batches.

There's a bunch wrong with what you're doing let's see if we can get you in cultivation.. you need a real fruiting chamber. It's way too wet and not enough air.

This thread was moved from The Pub.

Reason:
Perhaps you will get better replies here.

Good luck.

The first grows can be tricky but eventually you should get the hang of things.

Hi. I have a fruiting chamber but took the lid off to mist and photograph. It has an adjustable vent so plenty of air exchange.

What am I doing wrong/ how to improve?

Made up BRF tek.
Sterilised.
Inoculated.
Allowed cakes to fully colonise at around 28C.
Dunked cakes overnight.
Placed in fruiting chamber- ambient temp around 20-22C.
Misted 2-3 times a day.
After a few days one cake has started fruiting as per the second pic.

Looks pretty healthy to me?? Always open to any suggestions for improvement though.
