13 days-bare colonization-why?!?
    #27026341 - 11/07/20 08:44 AM (3 years, 3 months ago)

Hello,

I have a major newbie question. See, I spawned to bulk 13 days ago and currently see barely any colonization on top. I am worried something is wrong. Let me explain the process.
I used WBR, sterilized. The jars were fully colonized when I added them to the CVG substrate. No signs of contam and all jars smelled mushroomy. I prepped my CVG to field capacity beforehand, so it was ready by the time I scooped out the bulk of the jars. I placed a trash bag in the shoebox, placed a quart jar of the colonized WBR into the shoe box, mixed that in with some CVG, then added about 1.5-2" of CVG as a top cover. I misted, placed the lid on, and waited. Now here we are, close to 2 weeks later, and the tops of the tubs are not what I'd expect to see. I will include some pics so others may be able to better assist. Thanks to all your help, in advance.

Well 1.5-2 inch top layer is outrageously thick but still something is definitely wrong if you get to 2 weeks and don't see pins when growing cubes imo. You have some pins so let it ride.

There is a baby pin in the upper right corner, but since the top of the CVG layer isn't fully colonized, I am unsure if I should leave the lid on until more pins pop up and the top layer has more colonization, or rather go ahead and put into fruiting conditions. What do you think?
