Noob, needing some reassurance
    #26447911 - 01/23/20 10:00 AM (4 years, 6 days ago)

2nd grow after 1st failure. Fruiting these in a garage, that I must run a fan/heater in 24/7 . Containers are open, in a sealed grow bag with 5 micron filter. Surface completely dry when I get home from 9 hour day. I mist before and after work. They look ok? Can see tiniest hint of blue on first pic. Center 9:00

Running a heat/ fan can dry things out quickly and cause problems... but with that being said It looks really wet in there. I would increase fae, maybe poke a few holes in the bag or open it a few times a day. Over misting can cause the mycelium to matt up and get thick like that.

Evaporation between misting’s is a good thing, it promotes a healthy pin set.
I have the same problem with Woodstove heat. Have to mist more often then I’d like.

The fan is probably drying them out. I use an oil filled space heater that has a digital thermostat built in which helps me save money and it also means the room won't become too hot or cold.

You’ll probably still get some fruits. How’s longs it been since spawn?

What’s the make and model of your heater?

I need to keep my attic a little warmer and electricity is costly.

This is the one I bought last year. Highly recommended. See if you can find one on Amazon that suits your country's electricity network.

Another option is to use a cheaper one but you plug it into a digital thermostat that you buy online or from a hardware shop or something.

That looks pretty unhappy to me, I’m thinking bacterial spawn. That rubbery look to the mycelium is not desirable at all.

It might still fruit. Don’t pitch it yet, wait to see if it puts out a flush first.

Just very frustrating.  How much time, care, and money, I've  put into this, because I believe  I'm supposed to do this at this moment in my life....but failure after failure, with hundreds of hours, studying and combing through all if this information. Just dont get it.

My first grow looked almost just like that and still ended up filling the box with mushrooms.

Putting a top layer of sub on helps a lot. Gives you a much wider range to learn surface conditions without hurting the mycelium.
