20qt unmodified tub B+ - Day 4 looks good?

3 qt's Spawn oats. 325g coir. I put this into fruiting conditions after spawning. I checked field capacity of my substrate before i spawned, it was perfect. I think the coir still looks nice and moist still but not sure. Any advice's are appreciated.

Sure, it looks healthy - But I might suggest that for future reference, you also add some vermiculite to the coir prior to mixing in the spawn. This is because the vermiculite serves to retain water for your mushrooms and thus helps to flesh them up. Nevertheless, I am confident that something will eventuate from your grow. Keep up the good work.

But its Looking good man! Maybe a little more FAE tho cuz it seems some mycelium is stretching out. You'll get fruits that's for sure!

Yeah that would be dry grams of coir. So the ratio should be at 1:3. The quart jars were just whole oats. No casing. I just slapped the jars to break up the spawn and dumped onto half the coir then the other half on top. Mixed it nicely and put into "fruiting conditions" right away. I've been using Bod's Tek.

Thanks, i hope it does. If not it will just be another learning experience. I have other projects to fall back on i think.

Top jars are g2g, 5 days in. Bottom jars are agar to grain at 16 days which seems slow.

Man, I've got to keep a jar back for G2G next time.
That's a good way to look at it, though. I still have pictures in my gallery of an early tray tek that didn't look half as good as what you have going on there.
Was thinking the same thing! Lol I had left one behind to do a G2G but life happened and wasnt able to do it in time. When I had time the bottom of the jar was filled with metabolites...so I figured better not transfer that shit haha. I spawned it to some CVG I had leftover. Well see how it turns out.

Day 6 hopefully i dont fuck this up. I want some top fruits, not side pins I made sure my sub is level this time, and that i gently pushed the sides down to help with side pinning. I'm at like 90% + colonization. Lid flipped lights on 12 on 12 off.

The only way to truly get more top pins and reduce side pins is to maintain proper surface conditions so they want to grow there https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/23999053

are you saying you did not wait for the substrate to colonize fully and put it straight to fruiting?

A lot of people here spawn straight to fruiting conditions, myself included. as long as you have clean spawn and have a thin casing layer you're pretty much good on contams.

True. I am not saying its wrong. I was always under the impression that a fully colonized sub with a casing layer would yield more.

i don't understand why it would, maybe a more even pinset but it's going to fruit whenever it feels like it regardless so might as well have it open to do so whenever. idk though, i'm still new myself

Well its day 14. Turns out i got something after all. Had some side pinning action. But definitely learned a lesson about surface conditions. I think Comebackkid's write up helped me a lot. Second unmodified tub I've tried. Thanks for the advice everyone. Got a couple 54 qt tubs going at the moment as well

Thanks, some of those guys are droppin are some spores. but a lot of them are not. I figured i could let them go for a bit longer? maybe 12-18 hours. I heard that spore drop can affect a 2nd flush and beyond.

They look ready now. They’re already opening pretty big. Don’t waste too much time after the veil exposes itself and starts ripping. They swell up real fast lol.
