Matting Mycelium reducing pinset
    #26692396 - 05/24/20 10:52 AM (3 years, 8 months ago)

This is a mazatapec, known for its super aggressive and robust mycelium, I run into this problem often though where the Mycelium gets so dense on the surface sometimes half inch to an inch thick, it ruins conditions and blocks pins from forming properly. Instead of having an even, humid surface with coir still showing like some strains, this one likes to create thick matts in areas that collect and pool water, and make pinning conditions unfavorable and hard to manage.

Instead of having a proper leveled humid surface you get thick Mycelium patches stretching towards the sky

I'm thinking a thicker casing layer will fix this?

If it keeps doing that with coir maybe try a peat casing instead

When are you putting it into fruiting conditions? Increase your PAE.

I don’t think it blocks pins if conditions stay decent, but it for sure  has crazy myc.

Definitely fruiting at spawn will help with a good top layer and then either adding more or 5050 casing once it’s half way colonized.

There’s somebody on here with a maz culture that does that but like twice as tall, and then the pins just magically emerge from it.

Like they’re hiding in grass.

That looks really cool, however I understand that isn’t the purpose of growing. What are your FAE conditions like?
