I'm going to try and fruit some more in the next month or so. I'll be sure to take some more spore prints when I do. =)

ha well... humidity between 70 - 85 because my ultrasonic broke so i've been hand misting which is why some of them have bumpy caps. Temp between 10 - 12c

Same as me then, except I'm running 14-15°C, not misting. Time scale for full size?

^^^ Looks like a great start to a nice reishi grow! I bet you could get some big conks if you just turned the bag on it's side, leaving the plastic there to help hold in moisture.

Hmmm... pretty smart idea. I was going to just open up the top and put it in a mono or outside if temps allowed it, but that sounds easier.

Yeah if you've got ANY humidity in your area at all, once they're past the pin stage they don't need near as much, and lying on their sides allows the CO2 to fall out and provide them with more oxygen so you can get conks. Mist as often as you can and the water that sticks to the inside of the bag and pools at the bottom helps keep humidity high enough, right there in the bag. It even worked fine for me in my basement in the winter, where I've got NO humidity. Reishi really only needs high humidity to form a good pinset and start the fruits, which you've already accomplished there.

I was under the impression they needed relatively high temperatures to conk out? But you did in your basement in winter? Humidity is around 80-90% this time a year but temps are around 10 C or 50 F, dropping to almost freezing overnight. Bit too cold, no? Think they'll do fine in a monotub on their sides with top holes open? I don't have a greenhouse or fancy set-up. (And I'd rather not spores get all over my room )

Nope, they need high FAE to conk out, not humidity. But yeah you're definitely right about the temps - 50F I don't think they'll do too well at, maybe at the TOP range but if it's dropping below that I wouldn't risk it.
Yeah I think they'd do fine in a monotub on it's side.

But I did mine with the top off completely, so I'm not sure whether holes open will be enough, but give it a shot!
The spores are DEFINITELY something to watch out for, as you can see here:

It all depends on when you harvest them. If you wait for the conks to get full size, you're gonna have a shitload of spores. But if you harvest right as soon as you see any spores, you're fine.
