Casing ready to Fruit?? Assistance will be appreciated.
    #23576574 - 08/25/16 03:57 PM (7 years, 5 months ago)

Okay so I had just finished my first ever cultivation project. I did six PF Tek jars of Cubensis. Three different strains. Once one of the strains finished, I chose to crumble and Spawned to Pasteurized Verm/Coir. I know what you are gonna say "Spent cakes are spent cakes." But this is where I wanted to give it a try. So Its been about 2 months or so and it had been done in a pie chart with tin foil and misted slightly on the top layer and poked holes in the tin foil. As of today, I took a peek and there is a tiny mushroom pin head!!! I am so surprised! and there is a ball of fuzzy mycelium. Also smells like mushroom mycelium with a little bit of a weird smell almost of spent cakes. . .







MY QUESTION: the top of the substrate isnt entirely white, I can see webby whiteness but its still very visibly Coir. But the pin makes me think its ready for the fruiting chamber. . . I was just hoping to get some feedback as to what would be best to do.

Thanks a lot trippy creatures!!

Well it's pinning so fruit it. But it looks like hell. I wouldn't expect much.

I went ahead and placed it in a fresh Fruiting Chamber just cleaned and whiped down with Isoprophyl and then new Perlite. Hope I get some sort of yield because thatd be nice. .

Thanks a lot for your suggestion PatsyWhyte!

*UPDATE*

So I had success with a couple pins turning into decent sized mushrooms. I was gonna call it quits and remove the tray but noticed a couple other pins. . Okay cool. I'm not spraying the tray directly just spraying around the terrarium to keep up the humidity and taking off the lid for half an hour a couple times per day. Seems to be doing pretty good. Better than I thought since its spent cake spawned to verm/coir.

More than you could have hoped for really.  Super spawning with a spent cake sucks, but you knew that and went into it with that expectation. 

Can I ask why though?  Why not colonize some fresh spawn and use that instead?

because this was my first ever grow. I also found that this cake didnt look too contaminated after like three flushes. Also Just looked at the Tray and its pinning like crazy! at least ten more mushrooms

You might get a fruit here and there.  But I can tell you with utmost certainty that every cake or sub through the 3rd flush has contaminants all over the outside.  The reason it doesn't "look" contaminated is because the mycelium already has a hold on that substrate. 

But that all changes the moment you crunch it up and give it something else to feed on.  The moment you do, those contaminants on the outside of your cake, are now mixed into your fresh bulk, and they are screaming "lunch time".   

Your sub is bacterial at best, so you got lucky.  But it won't be long before mold moves in and quickly takes over that sub.  So get what mushies you can out of it while you can, and the moment you see any type of mold in there, toss it!

Don't like researching posts? Read this! . Also, if you're new and your posts contain the words: Humidifer, incubator, air-stone, or heater, then you need to read and UTFSE before asking people to review your setup.  OR... You should be cultivating reptiles and fish, not mushrooms.
