Update on first grow.
    #23959252 - 12/26/16 08:47 PM (7 years, 1 month ago)

Here are some pictures of my first grow so far. The one in the jar was from the 23rd and the other pictures are it today 4 days later. Hows it look? They have a bluish color on the stem, is this bruising? They are Golden Teachers. How much bigger will it get?

Yeah just bruising on the stem, they look fine other than that, they will get considerably larger by the time you should harvest them.

Looking good! It's awesome that you got some pins in the jar - that means you know your culture is relatively healthy and capable of making mushrooms! But those ones that start in the jar aren't what you're after. They could grow a bit more (or not), but don't focus on them too much. What you want to focus on now is making sure that they have the proper amount of humidity and airflow so that they can grow big, strong, mature mushrooms.

They look a bit dry - what kind of fruiting chamber are you using? The SGFC (shotgun fruiting chamber) is the most popular and easiest to maintain, but many options can work. I'd strongly recommend building a SGFC to spec since this is your first grow.

If you've already got a solid fruiting chamber, you're right on track with the clean spawn and dunk-n-roll. From there on out it's just misting, fanning, patience, and good ol' Cosmo.

Ideally you would want to have the tub in the middle of the room so air currents can come through the holes on all sides, but it shouldn't make too much of a difference.
Just run a small fan in the room pointed away from the tub, this should give your cakes much needed FAE.
Make sure to continually mist when the surface of the cakes are drying out
Good luck

I was thinking of putting a small fan in the room for that reason but wasn't sure, now I will thanks.
