NEED ADVICE, First time Grower
    #25046079 - 03/07/18 02:25 PM (5 years, 11 months ago)

Been misting and fanning to fruit my colonized substrate, and the top is turning blue and no pins. Need help figuring out what to do or how to fix the issue.

Misting and fanning how often? You might need to cut back on misting and up the FAE.

How do the sides look? Does the bag feel light when you lift it?

They are really white, some parts not white anymore because of the water from misting. And the bag has some weight, doesn't feel dried out

Maybe you have been spraying too much, looks like you did even with just 2-3 misting. I used to spray 4-6 and never got it look like that, how long has those bags been spawned for?

Conditions in that bag are poor. Not nearly enough air and the colony isn't producing enough heat (probably because it's suffocating) to create any condensation leading to the surface drying out. I would build a SGFC and the cut the tops off the bags, case the block and put it in the chamber.

Thanks for the input. I am using a grow kit from shroom supply, seemed pretty straight forward. But hands on experience is how to learn. I am growing them on the second floor of a house, need some warm weather so i can start doing them in the basement.

May i ask a question, please?
If you had a dubtub going showing pins. How often would you give it FAE? remove lid or just slide to side?

I never ran a dub tub. I would just dial it in so the sub wasn't drying out and see how the fruits respond :shrug:

Same thing is happening to me with the roller coaster in trying to get the right amount of moisture. It is a learning curve for sure

UPDATE: Made a few changes and i got great success. I made some FAE holes around the base of the bag, but i made to many and they dried out to fast. So i tapped some holes, and it made it perfect. I misted 4-7 times, trying to get all the top of the substrate evenly wet. I give it a very light fanning less than 1 minute. Before i would aggressively fan, and that wasnt working as well. This is worked for me, might not for everyone. i have 2 strains, golden teacher and chile. Thanks for the help everyone
