PF TEK SGFC not fruiting
    #27124239 - 01/03/21 04:02 PM (3 years, 25 days ago)

Hi team,

I set up a SGFC with my cakes about 2 months ago, and have been misting them since. However, I have yet to produce any fruit.
I think this may be partially due to a few factors.
-Cakes were not initially fully colonized (probably around 90-95% colonization)
-Perlite in SGFC was only at around 2" initially.
-The room the SGFC was in was relatively dark.
-I live in an apartment block, which is reasonably hot around 25 C
-The apartment I am in has passive ventilation which keeps the air relatively dry.

After three weeks I
-Added more perlite upto the 5"
-Redunked the cakes
-Resoaked the perlite.

Then about a week ago I moved the SGFC to another room with more light, and I have seen a tiny bit of distortion in the upper crust of the cake but still no pinning.

I have misted fairly aggressively over the past two months to compensate for the dryness of the apartment, probably around 3 times a day and with a substantial amount of water, not directly onto the cakes just so they have a fine layer and also on the perlite.

Cakes are colonised with P. Sub.

Probably not fully consolidated/colonized like you said.

Its a good idea to birth the jars too late then too early

You probably need more ambient humidity to fruit in that kind of environment, when you mist, that helps the surface humidity

Sunlight from a window is all you really need for fruiting, you can do it in the dark but sunlight is good

You may also want to look into the unique growing condition of P. Sub.
It could be different growing styles from cubes

Grow kits kinda suck if you are just starting out

Mushroomvideos.com has good info for making jars
