Is my shoebox alright?
    #26905944 - 08/29/20 12:20 PM (3 years, 5 months ago)

I spawned this 11 days ago and its got a lot of beading on the surface. Is it looking okay?
Sorry for this shitty pic.

It's my first grow so I'd really appreciate any opinion. Thanks.

Don't see any issues. Cut the liner down so it doesn't create a micro climate.

You have to give us a better picture than that.

You’ve got knots starting so it seems to be on schedule.

Here's a picture of it 4 days ago before there was so much condensation. I'm paranoid about opening it to take a picture because it seems to be doing fine.

That's good to hear because I wasn't sure if they were actually knots.

There’s no danger opening it at this point. If you’re using coir with no manure or straw and the spawn is fully colonized you can do whatever.

Here's what it looks like under the lid. My camera isn't great so it's still not an ideal picture.

The liner and black tape is overkill but the tubs are looking alright. Can't tell if those extra fuzzy patches are regular myc growth or a sign of something else, but they're probably fine

I think it's clear that they're myc when I look at them up-close. It's just the bad picture  quality not showing it.

Looks alright, maybe a little more air.

If you’ve got the liner taped to the top with that white tape you should undo it or the sub will peel off as it starts to shrink.

Also having the liner pulled over the top edge restricts air which is useful sometimes if it’s drying out or needs to stay in colonization mode.

Okay. I've removed the tape and cut the liner down.

I still have some micropore tape around the edge of the flipped lid to regulate fae. It seems there would be a large gap if I didn't do that. Do you think I should remove the tape?

as far as I can see it looks ok, next time try and get the surface more level.

I think removing the tape and just leaving the lid flipped will be fine. Looks good other than that. :thumbup:

Yep, I will definitely do that. I accidentally knocked it in the beginning which made it unlevel.

I've got quite a lot of pins now. Which ones should I clone from? I was thinking  one from the big one and one from the cluster.

You'll want to wait and see how they grow before you make a decision.
