Dry ?

Somethings looking off. I leave the lid on a while and leave humidity high and co2 high while developing pinset then increase fae after pinset, but that's just me, more than one way to do it.

Sub was field capacity ? That seems important. Maybe a contam or something ? Or maybe sub was dry ?

Looks like not-so-great spawn caused that more so than conditions

Still came out ok.:super:

As in genetics? The spawn was 100% colonized for 2-3 weeks before it was spawned to bulk and was worried that would cause issues.

That could definitely be the cause right there. Not genetics but the jar being consolidated that long. Typically, cubensis spawn should be spawned at 100%

I never really noticed old jars cause me problems when spawned :shrug: but definitely could be, especially if it was bacterial and it spread of something idk

I mist when needed for surface conditions if needed, usually after I start seeing pins emerge or to keep good surface conditions if needed, then inmodt once I start getting fruits to give extra water

Imo it is possible but I'm only saying that based on my experience with those tubs I intentionally did a bit dry and they fucking sucked.

You can send me a video if you like I can definitely tell you if that's about how I do mine or not, or try out what some other people say :shrug:

You'll figure it out and get it down



Alright sweet, Ill prob just try out adding a little more water to my recipe. Ill start out with 4.5 quarts probably and then send u over the vid before i use it for anything.

Should i spawn my jars as soon as the top, bottom, and all the visible sides are colonized, or should i give it a few days to ensure the middle is colonized as well?

As soon as you can see all the spots on the outside of the jar are colonized you're good

Once I see that I usually prep my sub and spawn it the next day unless I'm being lazy

:fishing:

For the record,I don't fish

As much as I value that thread, one very important thing that was not mentioned is that in order to achieve a nice surface like that in a natural way all has to be right. If you botched something up along the way (like bacterial spawn, too dry of a sub, too much air exposure, etc.) then good luck achieving a good surface.

When the sub is not healthy myc reacts to whatever is sharing the resources with it, it weakens its network and even its ability to move water as efficiently, so that's why imo unhealthy myc usually lacks the ability to keep proper surface conditions by itself and won't form those nice beads of moisture on the surface as easily.

It leads noobs to think that they should always strive to keep the surface like that even if they have some bacterial ass shoebox/tub that simply won't make that possible. Then keep misting but they can't quite get the surface looking like that, so they mist some more.
Then they freak out because the surface is starting to look wet but no nice beads of moisture to be seen, so they keep misting and upping the FAE in the hopes of improving the situation, which ends up making it worse and leads to all those ruined and matted surfaces we often see here.

All those beads form naturally when the sub is healthy and it's the cultivator's job to keep it that way till pins, be it by misting when needed or no misting at all if your climate and grow style will allow a set and forget approach.

But yeah, I agree with everything you said really.

No it's definitely good of you to say it for sure. Definitely lots of problems with people still not misting correctly and good of you to correct and provide another important aspect if it that I didn't :shrug:

Good man :super:

I dont know yet for the real sterilite shoeboxe, but with those i was using, the sub was drying each day only about 1 - 1 1/2 inch all the contour of the shoeboxe, i didnt have that problem with the rest of the sub.

Like that



So i only misted those area, not misting center, all first flush long, and that went good.
