Bulk EQ grow! Multiple updates a week
#26845845 - 07/26/20 10:05 AM (3 years, 6 months ago) |

What I’m using: •Two clear plastic containers- one filled 2/3 with water and the other container contains my substrates and shroomies •Smaller air pump-running 11 hours on/1 hour off •Small water heater-placed in container with water •LED light-on for about 10-12 hours a day •Mechanical timer •Humidity and temperature tracker •Bulk Casing mix •5grain spawn bags •Ecuador(EQ) syringe
My grow started roughly 6-7 weeks ago when I inoculated my spawn bags. 1 of my bags fully colonized at about 5-6 weeks and my other bag was only About half spawned at that time. I gave them a few more weeks to see if any additional growth would occur but nothing happened. So I decided to break open my spawn bags and begin the next process. About 7-8 days ago my grow officially started. I am already starting to see my favorite little white hairs poking through the substrate. Our current temperature is 78% at 99% humidity. I will be uploading progress pictures every other day or as growth explodes! This is my first time growing EQ and I am excited to see some massive towering shrooms shooting up from the surface. I have attached photos showing progress over a week at two day intervals

You really only need the tub, clean spawn, bulk substrate properly hydrated to field capacity and light to grow cubes. That's how most of the people around here do it and with fantastic results at that.

That’s great everyone is having such excellent results. And without a heat source! Very impressive. I however, need a source of heat that’s consistent. Which is why I have my setup the way I do! And the air pump means they always have fresh air!

What is the temperature inside your house? Cubes also don't need very much fresh air. The gap between the lid and the tub provides enough FAE.

Look at those little pins popping up!
Over the weekend I increased my temperature from 78 to right around 80 degrees. For some reason I was thinking I would have a solid white cake before I saw pinning. I am assuming my mushies must be happy if I’m seeing pinning. Hooray!

Found a few more of these sucker fish ready to be picked! These were the last of my shrooms to grow in the upper 70s. I decided to lower the ambient temperature to around 71 degrees. My substrate was at 85 degrees previously and now we are around 75 degrees. I’m hoping this lower temperature will encourage my shrooms to grow a little slower and a little larger!!!!
