I think I might have to give LM a go on my next project. Cultures guys? I have some stuff to trade. Or any advice on where to get a decent culture semi cheap?

I have an update on the grow as a whole, the first set of bags to get inoculated about a month ago are rocking, they got a good jump on everything with the heavier spawning, 1 quart.

The rest are following along pretty well, everything else was spawned with about 1/2 a quart. Some great pinsets and some funkier ones with the bags on the racks, I dont what it is, the way the bags cant stand all the way up I have started pulling the plastic back and away and it seems to help.

Here are some spawn jars I decided to fruit because I let them sit too long, they are coming along, slowly however.

What I have noticed so far is light and heat affects a lot, with the temps dropping I am noticing a big drop in growth from everything, I have been trying to keep it warm due to Gr0wer mentioning quicker growth with higher temps. Also the bags closer to lights have far better pinsets, you can see how crazy I have been going on the lights since noticing how big of a difference light intensity makes.

If you get close enough to mine you can see a shit ton of the yellow dust looking stuff, it's hard to get good pictures through the bags though. But they are colorful, I originally read from Gr0wer how lighting affects tje color and boy he is right, I can tell very visibly that the bags closer to lighting are far more vibrant in color.

Bro! those first pics look legit as fuck! Only issue i see is the bags are not self inflating. Are you handling the bags a lot? What is the filter patch size? Those bags should be like a full balloon IME.
And you need to move that light up to the top, that's whats making your antlers grow directional. The most space efficient way would be to move your light from left to right every few weeks giving you zig zag antlers maximizing space inside your bags.

I will do that with the lights I have noticed with the bags that have some good sized antlers in them the bags balooned out almost over night when they did. The filter patches are the 5 micron ones, yeah I don;t know but it seems to be the bags on the racks which haven't really ever been handled at all? I was thinking about moving everything around a bit.

I used .5 micron. That might be the difference in holding the inflation. Do you have any added RH in the room to reduce evaporation?

I think your right about the filter patch. I'm planning on moving all of these bags to my shop once I get the temperature in there stable, I have long tables and shop lights, like I was telling you the other day I just scored a ton of rigid foam insulation and I want to put that up in there or build something similar to what you did for your incubation chamber around my tables or racks, where I can add as much heat as I want and raise the RH, right now they are sitting in bone dry RH.
By the way, Happy Thanksgiving Gr0wer, and to everybody! Any good mushroom dishes at the table this afternoon?

Its really wispy mycelium, only happens when i spawn to wood shavings, but on cardboard or paper it colonises it like there is no tomorrow.

The wood shavings are likely too raw, it's mostly running on spawn. Paper pellets are amazing.
