I’m lucky to live in sub tropical area no issues with temps and humidity being too low.

Here’s my current water tub. I’ve tried rolling in vermiculite and now coco and much prefer the results with coco.

Right fucking now

I started this one yesterday. I'm using painters tape for first 48 hours to give it a good seal. Also using verm as casing because it is all I had. Let me know what you think with this double container setup.

You need fresh air exchange, you want them to be offset just slightly.  Using 2 containers where the cakes are in the middle means more air... I'd imagine you could take the tape, put like 4 pieces on the lip of the container, then put the other container on top, and assuming the tape makes the lips a bit more offset, that should provide enough fae.  Alternatively, just turning one slightly and taping it together with a pinky size gap on the corners, would likely work too.

No FAE won't work great though.

The next move is Shoebox Tek. After that you move onto grains, agar, monotubs.  Agar is easy, just do it.

In the first post instructions it says for first 48 hours to keep the lid on tight. Since I'm using jars instead of cakes I needed a bit more head room and went double, using tape to keep it tight and restricted. Am I misunderstanding the instructions?

Also I filled more than 1" of water since my rack is sitting up 3", I filled 2.5" with water, taking up a little less airspace.

When all cakes have been coated in coir place them in any Water Tub that works for you, as long as it's a 6 sided container with a lid that closes fully. Place a cookie rack or glass jars inside the tub for your cakes sit on and add 1Inch of water. Place the lid back on fully to restrict FAE as much as possible and within hours the fully saturated environment will already have triggered regeneration in all colonies. For as long as >99% humidity is maintained the colony will keep regenerating new myc from all over the surface regardless of whether it has a coir layer to grab on to or not. Here are a few pics to show the transformation after ~48h in a closed Water Tub:

Nah, if that's the instructions that's right, and I'm wrong.  Sad story for me, but so it goes.  Usually my assumption is that if someone is doing something the first time they're doing it wrong, and if it looks weird that's usually doubly true.  Yet you were just innovating with what ya had and doing things right, so keep up the good work.

Yeah, I forgot about that, until pins fae isn't really a big deal.  Yet since we generally spawn to fruiting and I have a terrible memory, I just figured restricting fae was a mistake.  It does seem perhaps unnecessary still, but I'd rather follow most experienced folks advice than gamble with my assumptions.  Sorry about that.

Lol I trust you so much, I almost took that tape off and cracked a corner. 😆

Haha, I deserve no such trust, I'm glad you took the time to push back with why you were doing it, it was the right move.
Honestly, I think even when I ran the water tub tek, I had it cracked because I probably read the thing, forgot about that instruction, and just did what seemed right.  My short term memory is about as reliable as a flight from spirit airlines.

This where I am at with the water tub tek. I let it sit for 72 hours (24 more than directions call for) because I didn't see the mycelium explosion across the surface. Decided to introduce FAE yesterday and already have a pin or knob forming on one as of today.

Anyone else who has done this tek before, what do you recommend? Closing it back up tight or stick with FAE?

I did this tek because I'm only planning a single PF tek grow before moving to bulk. For FAE I am using bod's flipped lid tek on a 32qt version of his exact recommended tub.

My most active cake is looking good; I think it started pinning in the jar. There is noticeable fuzziness that might be from overmisting or maybe too little FAE with the flipped lid. I started at once per day for 2-3 days but it looked dry as heck after just a couple hours so I upped it to four. Perhaps I will now drop to 3 with less squirts. The tiny bubbles recommended by pictures only form on mycelium, not on the verm casing, so I have been unsure of how much is too much, since very little area has been overtaken by mycelium.


At first the foil squares weren't there, but my first big pin grew straight down towards the water, so I did this to prevent swimmers.

42g wet on those. The cake was only in there for like 4 days. It feels oddly early to dunk again but there's no notable pins remaining

This is a different cake where the shrooms seem not as healthy as above. The cap split and the stalk looks like it has dried up in some manner. I began to limit direct misting onto mushrooms after this, if that could be a cause (if it's even my fault in the first place, don't know yet)

Stupid question here.

Anybody know of a reason of using a water bubbler in the tub?
The type used in aquariums.
