No Pinning after 25 days
    #23789144 - 10/31/16 04:26 PM (7 years, 3 months ago)

I followed PF tek for incubating the mycelium in jars.  Only strange thing was it took about 2.5 to 3 months to fully colonize the jars and they never developed pins inside the jars during that time. Temperature for incubation was only around 73-75 so could be reason for such of a delay. I then built a SFGC to spec. Humidity has usually been at 90-95% and temperature around 70ish. Before putting them in the chamber I soaked for about 15 hours and then rolled in verm. During these 25 days I have had two get contamed around the same time, 5 days ago.  Only noticed because I was starting to see fungus gnats. I have been able to mist and fan 3-5 times a day. Cakes still look fairly healthy but wondering if anyone has some advice.  Thank you

Cakes look okay. If they took 3 months to colonize, my guess is the substrate was mixed too wet.
