Shoebox check up!!
    #25587637 - 11/02/18 07:10 PM (6 years, 2 months ago)

Hey guys

New to bulk.. I have a shoebox of wbs and coir/Verm. How’s she looking?.. 6 or so days in fruiting.

The surface looks dry to me and I want to mist  but I see pins coming in and have read conflicting info on misting with small pins present. Can anyone give me some clarification?

I know it’s really hard to tell surface conditions from pictures but it’s better than no visual.

Thank you in advance.

I wouldn't worry about it until the second flush.  If you decide to mist just do two sprays or something one time only, you don't wanna get the surface too wet. Mushrooms are good at creating their own microclimate without much help. The conditions aren't perfect but that's okay! It is honestly looking quite good.

I mist the hell out of it when it's fruiting.  Mushrooms are mostly water.

I dunno, I don't really see how them being mostly water means that misting a lot is a good idea; I basically only mist to promote pinning.

The mycelium absorbs it.

Misting is fine sure.  But you don't want to mist to the point that you constantly have standing water.  That leads to bacteria.

Absolutely.  There should be no liquid on there for awhile before you mist again.
