Couple shoeboxes about a week in

This is what I keep them in, fits two colonizing or one with mature fruits with the shoebox lid off. It's like a 27qt air tight like the ones in bod's tek

Just thought I would throw in a couple of recent grows. First is a tub with 7 PF cakes inoculated with B+ MS and 50/50 with CVG. Probably won't make another one of these as I'm not really satisfied with the results. Pretty big fruits but pinset was meh.

A little primordia porn on a tub with 1quart spawn. Definitely gonna be bottom watering this thing.

My experience so far with shoeboxes is the fruits don't care how big the substrate is they just grow. On the other side of that fruiting chamber there is another 6qt tub GT on its second flush that grew a 40.5g wet fruit I was pretty excited about that.

Shoe boxes are awesome! You can grow some big shrooms.

Do any of yall just straight up take the lid off while you're home and pay attention to it once the pinset comes in? I'm wondering if the extra FAE and misting would help put out bigger shrooms

I do sometimes. Most of the time I dub tub once the pins grow a bit. Less maintenance for me. If I ain't got shit to do, I take the lid off. Still trying to learn surface conditions, so I chalk it up to practice.

Right on bro I dubtub too. I'm gonna give the lid off while home a shot on a box or two. I have a few shoeboxes from 10-14 days old with the lids on and I haven't had to mist a single one yet.

It's called hydro stone. It's a larger chunkier version of vermiculite. Got it at a hydroponic store.
