Is my mono stalling?
    #27045847 - 11/18/20 04:19 PM (3 years, 2 months ago)



This pic was taken yesterday, day 8 since spawning. It got to about 90ish % colonization but growth suddenly stopped or at least decreased a lot; the spots of coir peaking through aren't filling in.

The lid doesn't sit snugly on top of the tub so it's getting a bigger air gap than just the four latch gaps, should I mist it to compensate for the additional FAE? There's no beads of moisture on the surface, just some on the walls close to the myc.

Is it fucked?

Looks strange in a few ways but mainly looks dry as shit. If you take a nice focus pic from about after removing the lid i could tell better.

That spot in the top right looks gray in this pic but looks like white myc when I get up close with the flash

That pics a little better but still sucks. I think your camera was focused on the water droplets on the right side of the pick. Best i can say is give it a nice mist and put the lid back on.

Sorry about that. I would take another but I figure the only option is to just mist and pray regardless. Just misted the shit out of it, hoping for the best. Guess I learned that leaving the sub alone during colonization won’t work in my conditions. Lesson learned. Hopefully I can still get shrooms out of it. Thanks so much for the help

P.s. not to be annoying but in your opinion is there hope for it at this stage?

I don’t see any reason you should be close to giving up hope. 8 days is right on par for 90% colonization. Just keep your moisture right and wait it out


--------------------
I've been trying to justify you

In the end I will just defy you

You're not being annoying. You should see some of the shit we deal with around here. I think you'll probably be fine. Don't stress. I'd try to get her sealed up a little more and let her do her thing for a few days. Subs can sometimes look a little dry until they reach full colonization. They have a way of pushing moisture to the surface once the need it. But that tub (from what i could tell from the pic) seemed like it was actually a little dry.

Update:

The sub was still pretty dry despite my misting and knots were only showing up on small portions of the substrate so I ended up throwing down a 1/8” top layer of coir on it and keeping the lid on normally but unlatched for most of the day. Shit ton of side pins so far but three days ago the first surface pin popped up, two days ago the second pin showed, yesterday there were 7 pins and today a couple more.

Not the epic pinset I was imagining but as of right now it looks like I’ll be getting at least a couple mushrooms, and I learned how important surface conditions are, so I’m grateful for that. Thanks to you guys for all the help, probably would’ve let the sub turn into a crusty dried out brick if it wasn’t for this thread :facepalm:
