First time grower, mycelium developing at very different rates
    #24240141 - 04/13/17 11:19 AM (7 years, 9 months ago)

Hey all.

As per the title, I have 6 jars of cubensis-inoculated substrate, and they're all growing at very different rates. It's been a little more than two weeks, and one jar is completely consumed, another is half, another is about a third, and the other three are still just small points of mycelium.

I know that growth rates vary, but I'm concerned with what I should do when it's time for the more mature ones to start pinning. Do I create two maturation chambers--one for the ones that will be done first, and another that will be ready for the other three? Or should I wait until the others are ready, which seems like they'll be a couple weeks behind the others?

Thanks.

Well you could wait for them all to be fully colonized then do them all at once

Or put them in as they're ready.

Those are kind of the two options

Yea, I suppose I knew the options already. I guess I was looking for some thoughts on which might be better.

Essentially, is it "bad" to let fully developed mycelium sit too long before letting it grow?

Best thing to to would be birth each cake as they are ready, individually. 

Don't forget to allow at least a 2 week consolidation of the mycelium on the substrate before birthing them, though.

Different growth rates are the bane of using multispore inoculations.

Cakes actually enjoy consolidation so leaving them is beneficial

Thanks for the replies, folks.

These are all the same species of cubensis, so the growth rate difference is a bit puzzling, admittedly. I'm thinking maybe I injected more or less of the sample in different jars.

I try to keep the temperature at around 77 Fahrenheit, up to 80, but that goes down when I'm not home. I don't like to leave the heat lamp on when I'm at work.
