Is this Mycelium or not?
    #23974156 - 01/01/17 08:39 PM (7 years, 29 days ago)

Just started growing for the first time. I'm growing Psilocybe Cubensis Corumba and I used a medium grade vermiculite and brown rice flour for my substrate. I kinda messed up with choosing the right vermiculite, now I understand next time I should use course grade vermiculite.

Anyways this is day four and I'm curious if what I'm seeing in this picture is mycelium growth or not. I understand it usually takes up to a week for mycelium to be visible but I was just wondering if mine started early and if you guys can confirm this is mycelium.

Looks good man.
Verm is verm is verm btw
Fine coarse medium grade is just a bunch of hocus pocus.

Alright thanks man.

I have another question as well, my jars are sitting on top of the fridge and there is a cabinet about 1inch over the jars, and I'm curious if that will not give them good FAE.

They don't need FAE right now. All they need are small holes for GE gas exchange.
Build up of gases can cause mycelium to stall but as long as the gas can escape the jars you are fine.

That looks good man. The verm you have is fine for that purpose.

For colonization, you dont need to worry about FAE. Thats only for fruiting. The GE (Gas Exchange) shouldnt be an issue for you as its pretty miniscule for a jar.
