thanks for clicking, you're the best 
OK, I did the mix the night before last i believe, so the 9th.
This is it now. the red circles are mycelium coming up through a thin top layer of coir verm. was that ok? didn't get told to do that, or read it anywhere, just did it.
before too much spraying
 ************************************** after too much spraying

i believe i sprayed the surface a bit too much, it's been airing out / evaporating for about 2 hours. gonna check on it and close the lid if it doesn't look to wet again. ... checked it, looked dried out to about where it was before. sprayed it a bit then closed the lid up tight.
so the presence of CO2 causes what again? i remember CO2 presence is important for encouraging pinning?
and then evaporation kicks fruiting off? i'm trying to remember.

Higher co2 levels help colonization. Evaporation, misting and fae cause pinning. Just keep doing what ur doing. Mist when it looks dry. Let evap. Mist again. But if u just spawned it u dont even need to mist it. U can just let it sit till it colonizes. Opening the lid and misting is fruiting conditions. But since ur already doing that just keep it up now. Wont hurt anything

Looks good man just leave it be till it fully colonizes and then start misting and letting it evap before misting again, patience is key here my friend.

here it is. coming along i think. how many mushrooms will come from this in a best case scenario? it's just a half pint jar of black husk rice and some stuff called kamut.

just a half pint jar of spawn and 1.5 pints of substrate. it's only 1.5 inches deep.
wet oz or dry?
i love how fast fungus grows! My FC chamber looks way more filled out now. smells strongly of mushrooms too. i'm so excited!

OK, so that's dry. not much. huh? 10gs is a big dose for me. done that before. going to do less this time around and i have to share. to be quite frank with you, that's not enough dry weight for me. i need to build a stock. lol this is actually my very first run. didn't think much of it until the jar started taking off. This FC is like 7qts or something tiny like that. my bigger one is 76. looking forward to that. nervous about sending that project flying though. Got the good agar plates ready to go. -pure. They are chillen in my fridge.
so what's up with the art of creating the best strongest shroom from your first prints? i feel like there are steps to that i can't even imagine. what are the basic steps to breed at strong good growing shroom? is that what i'd even be doing? maybe my language is off and misplaced, but is that the basic idea. how do you even do that? i'm interested in taking this further than just bulk grows.
