Okay so I have black gold vermiculite. I have some good organic brown rice flour. I have miracle gro perlite. I have 1/2 pint jars wide mouth. About three tubs. I have face masks a pressure cooker new vaporizer just for fruiting chamber. I'm going to connect it to my sgfc when I see my first milky white cake I shall birth it. I'm going to do the dunk and roll! And then maybe get another tote for a bulk grow since I know penis envy don't like brf cakes as much I'll just case it with something I'm not too sure yet but I also have an airpump with a tube just in case I need extra humidity I have a portable heater in my closet keeping it around 85 degrees. I pressure cooked my jars for 100minuteslet cool for a day and a half in the pressure cooker. I got everything ready and inoculated my jars as fast as I could for the least amount of contamination. I have 5 jars colonizing only one jar is showing no signs and I almost guarantee that's the penis envy. No I didn't label! I flame sterilized the needle and wiped it down with alcohol not to mention I sprayed Lysol wore gloves and a face mask. What do you guys think?

It looks like you are keeping the jars while they colonize in a closet and in a tub for temperature I assume? They will do better on a shelf with some natural light in the room (excuse me if this isn't the case or if temperature in the home is unmanageable). A day and a half is a bit long to wait, fresh is better, usually overnight and out of your cooker will be fine. Maybe give that miracle-gro perlite a good wash too, your fruits will end up getting into it. You want that tubs humidity low, under a rh of 70%, your target rh for colonizing jars should be 50-70%, with a temp range of 75-85 during colonizing, too warm and you'll risk contamination though. During fruiting your optimum temperatures are 74-78, but your temperatures will work down to 68. You'll want a 95% rh during fruiting, but don't worry about the sgfc rh too much, the casing layer on the outside from the dunk and roll will wick moisture away, which tells your cakes to start pinning, which is why we mist, then fan. I've always had good results with the pf tek and sgfc, by themselves they work quite well, I also used a vaporizer for rh and really didn't see much difference, the sgfc works well by itself. 60 minutes is about all you need for pf tek jars to be pc'd. Looking good, good luck!

Down there inside the tubs it's about 84 degrees. Humidity is about 60% My ac unit and my heater for my whole house is broke so only my room stays about 70.. I just not put a different heater in there I'm tweaking the nobs to dial in a good temp. Your probably right that the sgfc works good by itself I just bought all this stuff just to be sure. And I'm posting on here for good feedback like yours! I'll probably do two fruiting chambers just to see for myself the difference in results. Thank you for your input oh and it's winter too here in tx. My closet is the only thing with a consistent temp

I figured that would be the issue, keep it up, you're doing fine. I'd suggest turning a tub in the future into a still air box if you plan to continue.

Dude. You're gonna cook your jars at 84. 70 is perfect. You will get slower growth but at the Temps you're talking about bacteria will flourish and can cause mold to happen. I colonize in my bedroom at like 65 to 70 which is pretty standard advice here. We frown on TiTs and incubation in general. Also you don't need a humidifier in a proper chamber unless you use a greenhouse.

good advice.
Using an incubator is a generally bad idea cause of bacteria over running the substrate before the mycelium does.

Thanks guys okay I just wanted to be sure I wasn't doing it at too low of a temp but now it's like 75.
