Do these cakes look weird
    #26404667 - 12/28/19 12:58 PM (4 years, 1 month ago)

What have I done? 🤪
To much humidity?
Are furry legs an issue?
Consumable?

I read that there needs to be 90% humidity. Is that bullshit?

It just kind of depends on a lot of different factors. The microclimate at the surface of your substrate is more important than the RH in the whole tub. If you have more air you'll need to keep things wetter. If you have less air, not as much. The main pinning trigger is evaporation of water at the surface of the substrate so basically your trying to keep it moist enough and have enough FAE on the surface so that your getting evaporation off of the surface as consistently as possible. Without things Beeing soaked or drying out. I think the dark pin caps are a sign of to much moisture. Looks kind of weird but idk if theyre actually bad to eat like that. I'd wait for someone who knows more about that type of thing.

Thanks man, first bit of non overly critical advice. Constructive criticism is useful.

The spores should be okay though right, would though be poor?



They have pinned.
I have more jars going.

If the mushrooms are bad the spores may possibly have bacteria or something in them-they could pick up stuff like that just from the air though-but you can clean anything like that up on agar.

There is nothing wrong with your cakes or the shrooms growing out of them.
People (that don't know shit) are much too quick to say "throw your shit out" to someone when patience is the name of this game.

I hate to say it but not one response to your question has been worth a shit.

You don't give much detail about your chamber but almost everyone tries to get too much FAE which keeps humidity too low. 

Furry legs don't matter, clean your substrate off and eat that shit.
Yes, definitely consumable...don't you dare throw those out and keep the cakes going.

Here's a link to an awesome thread, no holes in the tub, no fanning/misting. That shit is outdated info.

So in theory I can transfer cakes to coir, and this process can be repeated with other boxes once the shoebox has yielded.

The TEK explains that you can shred cakes and mix it into coco coir but I'm not sure you should do it with your cakes now since they've started fruiting. I'm not saying not to, I just don't know how that would work. 

If I understand the second part of your question, you let the shoeboxes run until they're done.  There is no transplanting into another box because once the myc is worn out, it's done and time to throw it out.  If you leave them to see what happens (and contams don't wreck it first) you're later flushes will have less numbers but much bigger fruits which is cool to see

This is my mad cap set up I’m sure.

I try and automate everything as I’m so forgetful due to ADHD traits.
🤷🏻‍♂️



The above is an under the stairs tent that I built



This is a humidifier I set up



The above is a FAE fan pulling out CO2



Above is the fruiting chamber inside with humidifier pipe



Lastly these are the timers to automate.

OMG dude, I understand the desire to automate shit but automation isn't for shrooms.  The only thing you want is a light on a timer. Get rid of the humidifier, fan, and all those holes are waaaay too much.

I've been there but believe me when I say less is more

Great thanks for that info.

In the pics I’ve added I have some jars that are growing.

From looking at the thread, you only leave the lid ajar, no holes, just a bit of daily spraying, I must be a frustrated systems nerd.

🤦🏻‍♂️

Well the best way to learn is through mistakes.

They are yielding at least.

I’ve been microdosing so like a donut, I’ve been thinking that the bigger dose I had a few days ago was due to me fucking up the grow. When in fact, it’s tolerance.

Below is a gif of me, concluding from reflecting on my Mycology progress

I can cover up those holes with gaffer And cello tape quite easily. I suppose I can use the show box tek with loads of little boxes, left over from takeaways. I’m tempted use black liner on the bottom, to stop bottom pinning. Would that be of use do you think?
