First time grow - looking for pointers * 1
    #26706772 - 05/30/20 09:36 AM (3 years, 8 months ago)

Hello,
First time growing. Started with a grow bag and moved into a tub once pins started coming up.  Just curious what folks might have to say in terms of how things are looking.  I've been reading that the "fuzzies" on the stipes are just more mycelium and it's due to too high RH.  Is this the case?  If so, is it a problem?

There's another bag that has not started pinning yet, but will be moved into the same tub once the pinning starts.  Will that create problems (ie. two different blocks growing at different rates in the same tub, etc.)?

Fuzzy feet can be caused by a lack of Fresh Air Exchange. But it is also genetic. I have two tubs running at the exact time one has feet and the other doesn't.

Also no you can fruit two blocks in the same tub. I would get some perilite if you fruiting them in tubs like that. But they look good.

The darker flecks on the stipes and matted look of the cake makes me feel like there's bacteria present... seems you're likely over misting as well: sometimes fruit will develop fuzzy feet in an attempt to evaporate excess moisture faster (increased surface area=increased evaporation) also likely need more light as they're  stretching... I'd close it, put a light on top and leave it alone

The 2 cakes in the same tub will hold humidity better: if its fully colonized, I'd go ahead and birth it to the tub

Thanks all for the advice.  Should I be worried about the presence of bacteria, if that's the case?  Is there anything I can do to help kill/fight off bacteria?

So, it seems like those darker flecks are spreading.  Some of the fruit bodies were harvested as they were pushing up against the lid and/or getting ready to open their caps.  The "stumps" of the harvested bodies are covered in snowy/fuzzy mycelium.

Also some perlite was added.  Are these toast at this point, or can they still be salvaged?

They sit under a window with about 12 hours of sunlight a day (4 or 5 of that pretty direct).  Initially they were a bit more off to the side so the light was less direct, but after Caps McGee's suggestion, they were moved to get more direct light.

Is the cake contaminated, or might it be possible to get another couple of flushes with rehydration?
