APE v1.0 slow as shit
    #27125531 - 01/04/21 08:12 AM (3 years, 24 days ago)

Hey all. Trying my hand at APE. This is 5 days of growth after a transfer.



Sorry if the pic isn't great, my camera is fubar.

I transferred 5 days ago and it's barely crawled onto the agar surface from the transferred piece. Temp is low 60s at night for 10 hours or so and low 70s during the day for the other 14 hours. Ziploc twist top containers.

Is APE really this slow? I feel like at this rate I'll have a grow going in 6 months if I'm lucky.

Thanks

Seems about right for most cubes.

APE can be slower to colonize than other cubes. There is anecdotal evidence that the slower to colonize the more potent the shroom.

Well dang. I'll admit it has been a while since I've grown any cubes. Been growing king oyster. After 12 days that stuff is starting to crawl up the sides :grin:

You could try keeping the temperature more steady at about 75. I have seen with my own eyes much faster growth on agar just by using higher temps.
