OK,

So i painted all that green shit with brine, which seemed to mostly knock its dick in the dirt.
Once it looked dead, i rinsed it off as best i could, soaked the whole basket under the tap, let it drain until it stopped dripping, and stuck it outside on the porch under an old broken tote.
I take the tote off and fan the thing whenever i happen to walk by., which is maybe 4-5 times/day.
Whenever it looks like it's drying out, i soak it under the tap again, which is once every couple days.
It has been 6 days.  What can i do to make this thing at least give me 1 mushroom so i can claim a moral victory here.

Can pleurotus overlay? lol

If you maintain humidity, and give it good airflow, the only other variable to adjust would be temperature.

so my "soak the whole damn basket" technique might not cut it humidity-wise then...
the whole shit is outside now and its warming up and drying out all next week around here.  I'm not sure how to keep the humidity up inside my crap rig while i'm at work.  Maybe stick a big tupperware full of wet perlite in there or something. or maybe stick the basket in an inch of water and let the wood soak it up over time.

Do you have a hygrometer? You can get them pretty cheap. They at least help get a ballpark of where your humidity is at. My first thought was a tray with perlite underneath the whole thing, if you have something big enough.

You could put holes just beneath the perlite's surface on the tray... That would give a bit of airflow through it, and increase FAE and humidity.

I have succefully been getting oyster fruits off pasturized cardboard with 0 contaminants on the cardboard substrates.  All I do is fill a 5 gallon bucket with water, cardboard, and half a cup bleach.  Soak for 2 hours then drain and press out the excess water & pack with grainspawn into produce bags from the grocery store and zip tie them or tie them off and poke a bunch of small holes all over the bag. I dont even rip the cardboard very small, the mycellium permeates it reguardless.  All open air, no flow hood or sterile tech.  They colonize quick but the yeilds arent good and I usually dont get a second flush.

If you're doing no sterile work, then you must be ordering all your liquid cultures to start, correct?

No i do my cultures under sterile work, but after the grain is colonized i just layer maybe half a quart or less sometimes and pack the produce bags tight

Hooray!  I finally have pins!  It only took 5 months, :burke:

I was hoping it would want to fruit through the gaps in the basket, but i only see pins coming straight up through the coir, so i think i'm gonna turn the whole basket on its side.
