First time using trays
    #23862770 - 11/24/16 07:21 AM (7 years, 2 months ago)

MS. Rye grains to pasteurized coir/verm/gypsum. Wanted to wait a week before checking them but couldn't help myself, so this is after 4 days. Do they look like they're doing okay?...
All of my knowledge and past success can be attributed to this site and I am extremely grateful, so I'm sorry in advance if these next couple questions have been answered and I just couldn't find them.
Did I just mess up by taking the lids off for a couple minutes only 4 days into my bulk substrate colonizing in the trays?
When I put the trays into the SGFC, what kind of space needs to be between them for the air flow to be sufficient? Will 3 trays this size be too tight?

I might not fruit because you only waited four days. You might just get fluffy blobs I'd mycelium. Next time let it colonize for at least 10 days. 14 days is good.  CO2 build up is  important while it is colonizing.

Trays are looking good for only being 4 days along.  They should be ready in about six days, so keep them covered up and leave them alone until then.  It's best to maintain co2 levels during colonization, so don't peak more than you have to, especially if you have to take the whole lid off to look.  My trays are big enough I can lift up a corner of the lid and shine a bright light in there to look around.  I usually don't peak until day ten because subs are not usually done colonizing before then anyways.  The inch or so you have between trays in the SGFC is fine.  I look forward to seeing some pin porn of those trays soon.  Good luck!

Thank you guys for the help. I put the trays in the fruiting chamber today, wondering if they colonized enough. If not, I have another colonized jar I can spread to 4 and try again with.

Peaking isn't a big problem given proper pasteurization. Pinning occurs with more sustained FAE, not just a few minutes. Pinning triggers in order of importance are: full colonization of the substrate; 100% humid microclimate at the surface of the substrate; as much fresh air exchange as possible without messing up the microclimate; and ~6500K light for ~12 hours.

Anyways, the trays are looking nice!

They look fine, though if I were you I'd do trays in a mono tub instead of a SGFC, but it should work just fine.  It's just that the trays block the up flow of air through the perlite.  Trays in a mono will get much better and more evenly distributed Fresh air.

For sure, doing mono tubs next, just wanted to use the SGFC I made at least one more time. Also had perlite I wanted to use up.

Here's how they're looking

Are these trays raised up from the surface of the perlite? Like on a rack or something. Elevated trays are the only way I've seen a sgfc grown boss tray accomplished

I don't have a rack but I have the perlite piled up in two mounds going the length of the tub. Is that enough? Here's a pic(the lids are only there to show the height of the mounds)

You're missing a ']' at the very end. Basically jar lids on the perlite right? Could work :shrug: but I'd use the rings, and many more of them to distribute the weight

Oh, thank you. No I put the lids there just to show the height of the mounds, couldn't make them out in a picture without them. But I'm going to look around my house for something better,  maybe go buy something. Thank you for that, thought about it at some point but never got anything.

I actually found an old box of Legos and made some snowshoe-like stands. They seem to be working pretty well... whatever works!
