Does my tub look OK?
    #26417241 - 01/05/20 09:41 AM (4 years, 24 days ago)

I just spawned it to coir/verm on the 1st, it looks almost ready to fruit.  I'm concerned it could be a contam because the myc doesn't look as white as I remember it but upon closer inspection it seems darker because of the moisture on the surface.  Should I try to fruit it now or wait a little longer?

Fruit it. Definitely time.

You don’t need to do spawn run anymore lots of people go straight into fruiting now with no difference.

Looks good though what kind?

My maz always runs super fast and thick like that it’s nice.

These are Hawaiians from a honey LC. I haven't tried agar yet but I'm definitely considering it.

Do it man it’s so easy. I just started a month ago and it’s my favorite part now.

I wasn’t sure so I just ordered 40 plates and a little bag of premixed lme agar to try it out.

Fuckin  hedberg man I wish he hadn’t died his stuff was great.

Yeah a buddy of mine is gonna help me build a flowhood then I'll give it a go. 

Hedberg is easily in my top 5.  That dude was so charmingly goofy and really had a presence.  I was too young to really drive to comedy shows when he was big; I would've loved to see him live.

Tub looks good to fruit. I still incubate until full colonization also.

Me too man I was too young until a couple years before he died and I lived right by la so I used to go to comedy shows a lot. Bummed I missed out.

A still air box works great I was gonna do a hood at first too but the box ended up being so effective I just don’t see the point unless you have extra money and room. It’s literally like 10 bucks for a huge work space.

You could use the hood money and buy a few thousand plates with agar to fill them lol.

It’s addicting though I got my little test sleeve and then immediately after I started ordered a case of plates. It’s just so cool to be able to clone and pick genetics and stuff.

Not to mention having super clean spawn.

If you end up going for it I’d recommend getting a plate of each variety you’ve got going right away and then taking a couple transfers of each. That way you can throw them in a drawer and you have a bunch of myc grown out for whatever you randomly feel like growing. Just dig out those transfer plates and throw them in a jar and you’re set.

Doesn't that just make it take longer though?  It feels like just adding another empty layer for it to colonize before it fruits.

It won't add much time if any at all. Often the casing is not fully colonized because the substrate will automatically fruit when it's ready.

I use a quart or so as casing at spawning but I also have my tubs in fruiting conditions from spawning so I don't have to remove and add tape when colonized.

Looking good.  :popcorn:

My current experiment: with casing and without, both were added to sub at the same time
I don’t know why it works, it just does

Casing or top layer??

I think the reason it helps so much is all the normally  exposed fluffy myc is protected by the wet coir so it can suck all the water out and send it to the knots, which for me are usually the only thing poking through.

An actual casing is something with no nutrients, most people use a peat moss/verm mix.

For any cubes besides PE they might as well be the same thing though.


Did something happen to that back left corner in your pic?

It’s like the myc grew a half circle around it for some reason and then everywhere else is solid pins.

Coir is “non nutritious” I think I also read RR say that Verm is a great substrate as well
And yes I’m still plagued by that whisker mold :justdontknow:

I used casing on previous grows, this is the first time I'm omitting it.  I might go back to it depending on how this one turns out.  Thanks for the suggestions.

If it was spawned on the 1st it might just need more time, but loosening the polyfil won't hurt as long as the sub doesn't dry out

Unless it’s PE or another slow one I’d add more air but keep a close eye on it. I’ve ruined quite a few beautiful myc covered surfaces like that with too much air drying them out.

There are a few knots hiding in there though.

They do have the dry rings around them so I'll probably just leave it as is and give it more time.  This is the first time I've grown in like 10 years so I forget the timing.

Some of those knots look bigger should be anytime now.

Looks like there might be one hiding under the stretched out myc just to the left of the one in the middle too.

Or it’s a grain.

Either way have fun playing wheres Waldo with your tub the next day or two!

I only grew in the beginning.  A few times.  Then I was mostly active in the Pub and social forums.  I left the Shroomery in 2013 for a few reasons and recently rejoined back in December to start my hobby up again and say what's up to the old crew.

I've noticed the walls of the tub are beginning to dry and only the center mycelium seems to have some dew on it.  Should I still just leave it?  It's still fruiting though.  Not many pins on that side either.

Then again it's just the first flush.  My instinct tells me to let it keep doing its thing then give it a dunk after first flush rather than after 2.

Thoughts?

Dunking isn’t necessary, according to lots of ppl here, including some TCs and Tribe members. I’m still trying this out myself, but the idea is that heavy misting accomplishes the same thing.

Someone weighed a sub before and after a dunk and there wasn’t much difference.

Sorry dude, I tried to find the thread in question for you, but can’t. I think it was the general discussion thread, in which case the info is lost forever lmao

No worries, I was considering giving it a small misting, but I should wait until the flush is harvested though right?  If I recall pins don't like direct water contact?

I used to dunk but started getting really waterlogged flushes.

Now I’ll put like an inch or two of water in the tub and let it sit for around an hour then drain it and soak the surface with the mister.

Seems to be better so far but haven’t tried it enough to know for sure.


Misting pins is ok as long as you’re gentle with it.

Also turns out to be outdated info lol. (I recently came back from a long myco break as well)
You can mist directly too - they’ll be fine. But you might wanna wait for the droplets to evaporate a bit more, just for surface conditions.

I just picked up a fine mist spray bottle from the personal care section of Walmart.  It put the perfect coating on the surface. Something told me the regular cleaning spray bottles would be overkill.

Nice man how much was the spray bottle? I’ve been thinking about getting a different one mine won’t stay on super fine for more than a couple sprays.

You got crazy knots now. I keep thinking there should be way more pins, but it looks like there are and half of them are hidden under that super thick myc layer.

Should be pretty awesome in a couple days here, almost time for the pins to double in size overnight.

Oh that's awesome, can't wait.  I paid a couple bucks for the spray bottle. It was in the like body care section in a basket type shelf.  Took a bit to find even with the app but it's a perfect mist.

This is day 17 since spawning.  I let it colonize for a few days then introduced fruiting conditions a few days later because it colonized so fast.

Perfect! Just give it a little misting when it starts looking dry.

Still pinning, finally some of those knots in the middle are pins now too. I loosened up the top polyfill because I think it was too tight. I think it's helping.

They should just be getting warmed up. What are these again?

They do look kind of oddly shaped so far.

The veil usually tears from the caps opening up and stretching it away from the stem.

It doesn't appear as though they're about to tear. Although sometimes short shrooms are a thing. One of those things you just don't know until you know.

Are you planning on cloning? Still time to buy agar supplies.

Nah, not yet.  I wanna get this tub under my belt, maybe a shoebox or two, just to get back into the swing of the fruiting process, then I'll get into agar work.

So I've done some more digging and read a lot of info and discovered my 5000k light probably wasn't doing the right job.  I was also using the AC in my window on fan mode to provide circulation but that was lowering my temps too low.  I was still under the impression 70ºF was perfect but now I realize that's not the case.  My room usually sits around 75-77 with the heat in the house on (we have an old boiler/radiator system). 

So I went out and bought a 6500k light and a small fan and readjusted my polyfill.  I have a good feeling now, they already look better and it's pinning in spots that previously looked dry.  I'll post a pic tomorrow with an update.

Being colder won’t hurt, just maybe take a an extra day or two. I notice a big slow down in grain jar colonization speeds so I keep those mid 70s and usually keep my shoeboxes the same until I see pins. At least with what I’ve seen, once the pin set is in it doesn’t slow down noticeably and you get some nice solid fruits.

they will get bigger quickly, in 2 days they wont be pins anymore. I've had great success with unmodified tubs. No need to fan, just let it do its thing.

edit: looks like they might be stretching for air, maybe increase FAE a little bit.

I’m not seeing stretching but more air won’t hurt. A couple do have the dark lines which is supposed to be from too much water.

Looks good though man good job!

Could be some monsters in there, couple of those pins are pretty chunky.

Yeah this one's probably gonna hafta go tomorrow, as well as a few others. I think think I've solved my FAE issue now though so subsequent pins should be okay. I'll keep an eye on it.  Thanks for the encouragement; you've been very helpful!

Oh good ok lol.

I wouldn’t pick them yet they have at least a few more days.

You could always wait until one drops spores, that way you can print it and also you’ll know what they look like fully grown so you’ll have a better idea when to harvest the rest.

I had to pick some but that's not even the full flush. I used an exacto to remove some from a cluster but some I just had to do the pull n twist.  Minimal disturbance of the substrate tho. But holy shit was that the deepest blue I've ever seen on a cube after cutting the ones with an exacto.  Such a beautiful color.

Today's harvest.  Man this thing is still really taking off. I thought something was wrong based on how small the fruits were but they're all pretty uniform and meaty.

Second flush coming through. Finishing drying the rest of the first and I'll have a final weight.

Final first flush dry weight (minus 0.21 for the bag).  Thank you guys for your advice, I'll update with final tub totals when it's done.

I did notice that one corner of the sub is really starting to pull away from the liner.  I just poured some water into that corner for it to reabsorb.  That, and spot misting as necessary seem to be the accepted means of rehydration these days, correct?  Dunking is like, soooo 2007?

Yeah when the first fruit popped up and opened its cap so early I thought I did something wrong but they're all actually pretty solid and uniform so no complaints here.

Bet you’ll get some bigger ones second or third flush.

I’ve almost always gotten at least a couple that were 2-3x bigger than the biggest first flush ones.

That’s a good haul man I love how dried shrooms look in a jar.

You tested them yet?

Nah I'm gonna wait until the tub is done and I have some time off planned. I haven't had mushrooms in almost a decade so I don't wanna just dive right in.

I've had lsd fairly recently but in my personal experience with lsd you're the driver, with mushrooms you're the passenger.

Nice job!  Love the avatar!  Miss Mitch.. love his comedy.. I wrote a mitch type joke:
Staples is a horrible name for a company that sells paper clips..
I had a box of paper clips for like 2 months and thought I had staples


At least I think I came up with it.. hoping it’s not one of his jokes that I heard him say a long time ago and made its way back into my head.  :lol:  pretty sure it’s mine

I have, but the surface still seems really dry. Should I just hydrate from the sides/bottom like that or should I mist too?  Since it's already fruiting does it still need surface evaporation or is that just to initiate the process?

That's a wrap! I'd have another half a quart jar but I gave some away to friends and ate some myself. Final dry weight right around 6oz!

Next I'm gonna try agar!  Thanks for all of the support and encouragement ❤️
