need help with a few things please!!

hello i had a few questions ok so i started about a month or so ago and my cakes are in my fruiting chamber and ive read and read and searched but couldnt find the answer i was looking for. but the are not fruiting yet and they have been in there for little over a week now ill add pics in a sec when im done typing. the temp in my fc is around 73 to 77 seeing how my house temp is always changing. i have a air pump hooked up for more fac also have a fan above not blowing at the fc. but it seems that the mycelium growing over vermiculite after the dunk and roll is that normal?? even with the air pump i still spray and fan 3-4x a day only if it looks dry in the fc. hum is always 99% so idk if i did something wrong or what also need you to look at some of my 1/2 pint jars cause i got some spores from a friend and i know the risk but does it look like this is cob web mold? or if you see anything wrong with these pics. im sorry to bother you but i really need someone to talk to to help me. thanks for your time!

















a few days later





is that normal and is my fc right?
next couple pics or when i cloned only 3 days ago also i used cracked corn.








now for what i think is mold like cob web or something one of these pics has a nasty looking black dot on it also. these are the spores i got from a friend just to try and get these unknown mushrooms.

i dont think this one was a mold on it looks nice tho

this is the black dot one



cob web mold?



im sorry for so much but like i said i rather talk to someone who knows a thing or 4. thanks again.

Build a proper shotgun fruiting chamber for proper results.

Your shit's a bit too wet inside, there is mycelium inside but it looks like you may have the start of a bacteria problem, potentially a mold issue as well. How's your sterile proceedure? Were the spores you used from a clean syringe? The already birthed cakes look OK

very clean everything i have done i have washed and sprayed and washed some more and y a i got it from thehawkeyes so i know they was clean. and no my perlite is damp at best not soaked i never spray right at the and if i do i hold it high to mist them. they look kinda gray cause its growing over the virm and the verm is dark. aslo do you mean add more holes cause i dont know why you would with a air pump.

Why did you go with that fc? If you make a sgfc to spec it will work perfectly.

I was referring to the lower set of pictures with the jars with the corn in them. They look pretty wet, and don't seem to be colonizing everything.

First, you should have posted this in the cultivation forum.
Second, you've made a lot of mistakes. Probably from reading old outdated posts. Check the date of the post and don't use anything older than 5 years.
Ditch the humidifier. Ditch the air pump, and ditch your current fruiting chamber. You need to make a sgfc made exactly per the instructions. Use the search engine to find it.
You shouldn't be making clones unless you have a sab aka still air box. Those jars look too wet and the yellow liquid is metabolites from bacteria. Not good. And the "cob web" looks like a pin mold. Toss it out.
Go watch the "let's grow mushrooms" videos on YouTube to learn the proper pf tek. Then when you want to move on to bulk. Search for Frank's how to get shit done. Good luck!

No, your jars are definitely too wet. You don't want to see any visible moisture inside your jars.

1234go wants to fuck you. Also a proper sgfc will work no problem. If you build one to spec and shit is still not working then at least you know its not your fc.

sorry searching i am new also dont have a humidifier didnt see a need and i have a sab for sure thats how i made clones and they not fuck up by getting mold or anything. those last jars was from spores from a friend i know they are dirty i was just trying to see if they was clean. i get they are not. i look at it this way its a chance for me to see what it doesnt need to look like haha i have a ir pump to fit my needs cause i do work a lot so i have it so i know they wont die. ill think about a new fc when i know for 100% sure this one wont work. cause i still have hope like someone said before me " mushrooms are going to do what the fuck every they feel like it." so i still have hope cause they havent even been in there a hole week yet.

404 ya maybe the 1/2 pint but even the pints and pints and a half jars? like they are growing just fine and i dont see any visible moisture inside your jars not counting the 1/2 pints. when i dried my cracked corn i made sure to drain them very well so that wouldnt have also put some verm in it to take a lot of it out. and spirit thanks i wont listen to him when i know fore sure my fc sucks ill change but i speant a lot of time building it and reading and doing everything to make what i need for my needs.

Trust me when I first started I made a pmp type setup and it worked but not near as well as a properly built sgcf.

i get this. like again the sgfc did not fit my needs between work and personal shit i need something to fit my needs. i did also say this is my first time and that im giving mine a chance before i just dump it. only thing i would be changing are holes and taking out the air pump. like couldnt i just make more holes or something instead of just starting all over? this has to be way way add more holes or something but thats the only thing to come to mind. dont get mad cause i have questions i may be in the wrong forum but i have every right to question what people are telling me. this is what this place is for and im taking full advantage of it.

A shotgun chamber isnt difficult to make. If you try to cut corners or fudge shit its not going to work. Your chambers whats preventing them from fruiting right now. Thats your problem. So if it doesnt suit "your needs" to fix it, youre gonna have a bad time.

Not to contradict all of the above posters that suggested you use a properly built sgfc, because it will certainly be the best, but with your set up you might expect to at least produce some mushrooms. You did well to get through the inoculation of your half pint jars (assuming it was BRF recipe?) without contamination. The cakes in the chamber look nice and healthy and they will likely produce something. Your cracked corn jars look fucked, as everyone else has already said. Even though you have kept them separate, you should consider getting rid of them asap. Now you know what bad jars look like. And while you say they are not too wet, they are too wet. Good luck with your grow! Nothing like testing the fruits of your own labor the first time

i used cc for those also and the ones in the fruiting chamber looked like my pint and pint and a half jars they didnt look like those 1/2 pint jars at all i know those are bad and taking them out right now. i get i need to get a new fc but ill fix this one until it works if i have to but i feel like a couple more holes small ones should work if not keep trying i dont care if i fail im having fun learning. haha but was just looking at pinning mushrooms and i do have a lot all over so i aint worried at all haha have faith and take care of them with love and itll work out. oh those good pics of my jars like the one with the 4 jars in a line those look good right not to much water? cause those are going to bulk and cakes the pint and a half are going to be cakes haha and pints to bulk. these pic was before i shacked them after they didnt look so wet.

We are here to help even if some people say it in a mean way. In the mush cult forum it would be worse, believe me.
But seriously almost all of us have made those mistakes before and we're trying to help you. You can learn the hard way, but you don't have to. It can be really easy if you just follow the directions. You might be able to turn your tub into a monotub but even then the holes are not exactly right.
The main problem with your fruiting chamber is you're not going to get enough airflow especially with it wedged up against a wall like that. You say you wanted something to fit your needs. A sgfc is set it and forget it. The tub you have now would require constant fanning to get the right airflow.

once I boiled some lawn clippings in a used sock then dumped a sporeprint in a water filled vial mixed with my thumb as a lid then I let it colonize in tupperware in my closet and threw it in a hole in my backyard.
If only I had pictures.
