Opening it will not cause problems, and it's recently been found that fruiting conditions from spawn produces faster colonization, and better harvests... if your spawn was clean, it's too late to contaminate, if it was dirty, no amount of stress or caution is going to save it

Every time I open these things, they're dry with no beads on the sub. I've asked this before but is this normal to be misting them so often? I mist like 4 times a day to no avail.

That's exactly how my first grow was when I spawned brf cakes to shoeboxes. Had to mist all 7 of them 2-3 times a day to maintain beads of moisture. For some reason now that I use grain, even with the same coir recipe, I get tons of surface moisture and don't have to mist at all. Not sure if your using grain or not or if it's just a coincidence, but that's just what I've noticed. Could also possibly be that your sub isn't hydrated to field capacity: https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/25087128#25087128

Nice! Is that KSSS from MS or clone? I'm thinking of running that next (MS). Those funky mutants are supposed to be super potent right?

I've got to get my hands on some KSSS. Way back they were one my first grows,but I never got any real "muties".

nate, I think there's a bunch of confusion. Some are KS and some are KSSS and they get mislabeled all the time. I honestly have no idea which is which, but all I've ever grown was these muties.

Ended up at 125% BE... Measured 35 when using the smaller scale, I think this larger scale is getting worn out. Some PE genes showing with some telltale blues!

So I bottom watered, poured a good bit in too, and it sucked it all up. I guess it really was drying too quickly, today it showed a lot more growth than over the last few days

Nice!! It'll be awesome if they all kick out a sexy second flush simultaneously too.
