Should I keep casing these? 18 days since spawn, 7 days since I applied the second casing layer. I've been patching almost everyday but the myc just keeps tearing through it by the next day or two in the spots I didn't patch.

I think those are ready to be fruited. I may be wrong, but my understanding is that they're going to start knotting up under the casing layer and pins will pop through at this point.

Here's all my PE shoeboxes doin their thang. About half of them will be getting patched today and the rest will need it in a few days I believe. Overall I'm enjoying PE, it fits my style pretty well: a little bit more hands on than standard cubes and it justifies me checking on my tubs a couple times a day

Ernie, good on you for coming back and apologizing. That takes a set of nuts that not many people have, myself included. I can understand your concern with these tubs and wanting to get them right after such a long process getting them to where you are. Unfortunately though, for me and you alike, this hobby isn't for the impatient! In my life I'm used to having everything when I need it but always being behind schedule so I can relate to the frustration.
I've got a tendency to poke and prod when it isn't necessary so I'd like to apologize for fanning the flames and dishing out any cheap shots I made. Water under the bridge and the hatchet is buried. I hope your tubs are doing great, but let's keep this thread on topic from now on cheers!

I’d patch those solid spots, yeah.. very thinly. If you don’t, it’s not gonna be a big deal but if you have casing to do it, I would. They look good! Should start pinning any day now.

In Teds OP he says "I put on a generous 0.5" of casing and wait for myc poke thru 20-30% then I pretty much re-case the whole tub/tray again and introduce FAE."
Does this mean that once the mycelium has come through 20-30% you apply an additional .5" of casing?

That’s how he does it after the first .5” layer.. I wait til the first layer is fully colonized but I think the result is the same since the whole thing becomes colonized eventually. I feel like the second .5” colonizes more evenly if it all starts from a fully colonized first layer but maybe he has a reasoning for his way that I’m unaware of, but I don’t think it matters too much either way since it all gets fully colonized.

Youll see the myc start to tighten up when its about to fruit. See how its still all fluffy and growing still?

Awesome, thanks! I just patched the 20-30% that came through my initial .5" casing so I'll wait for it to colonize again and case with an additional .5"
Thanks again for all the help

Thanks for the prompt replies! Wasn't confident I'd recognize how it'd look when it tightened up but you're right it is still very fluffy.
And bigfoot, looks like we're on pretty similar timelines, looking forward to seeing how your tubs turn out!

OMG! Between Liz and BigFoot... I should’ve just kept my mouth shut and let you guys ask the questions for me because it seems like you’re concerns are exactly and I mean exactly what I was trying to ask. I wasn’t sure what it was going to look like when it was tightened up and I wasn’t sure when to stop casing because in my mind I thought the mycelium would just keep growing through and I would end up casing all the way to the top opening of the freaking tub!! Lol. If I keep casing and patching and it keeps growing through, when will it stop growing through??? Haha. Luckily I have my answer now and I think I’ve got this. As far as me apologizing...it was needed. I don’t know about it taking big nuts I just know when I’m wrong I feel the need to make things right when somethings undeserved I try to straighten shit out. Nobody deserves anything I said. People are doing their best to explain to me and I just wasn’t understanding and I got frustrated.
I’ve noticed something in my years of being on this planet. The only time I act inappropriately is when I’m consumed with fear and it’s usually self-centered fear. I’m afraid I’m not going to get something I want or I’m gonna lose something I already have and believe me it can be applied to every aspect of life.
The opposite of fear is faith and my faith doesn’t work too well when I’m consumed with fear and then it snow balls and then I start making poor decisions elsewhere. They may be small but they’re not my normal behavior. Thanx for the apology BF. I thought you said you didn’t have the balls to do that.… Looks like you do to me and believe me it’s appreciated. I’m not immune from getting caught up in drama myself.
Hopefully after all this casing gets done and we don’t run out of room at the top of our tubs we can post pictures of our fruits. If I had known penis envy was gonna be this much of a penis I woulve stuck to golden teachers and Burma’s! Peace Brutha!
Thanks anyway Ted. My question get answered anyways when Bigfoot posted his pictures. LOL. And yes, maybe next time. I’d love a rain check on my next crisis. Knowing me I’ll have one! So I’m holding you to it!

Thanx bro. I edited that previous post while you were responding to it. I wasn’t aware or you could do that. I tend to make a lot of typos. In fact that’s what my rant was! One big TypeO! I wish. It would’ve been far less damaging. Lol. Thanks again for your help Ted

Well I get up this morning to case the right side of my tub and I have fruit growing that I didn’t even see forming in there already almost the size of a dime! Now what? Appropriately named for the penis I have premature ejaculation on sprouting here! Omg. I guess it could be worse than I could have no fruits. But I did not want this to happen. This just means I’m going to have random fruits coming up for the next week unless I can shut it down? Is that possible?

See’m in there poking their premature fruited heads!?!? Uggg! Have you ever had that happen? Have a tub start fruiting before you wanted it to? I guess there is no way to stop it once they start coming?

Lol that’s a side blob in the second picture!
Those seem to happen a lot no matter how the rest of it turns out. For me at least.

Thanx for the response. I’ve got nothing to compare it because I’ve never grown PE but it just looks like the cap of f a mushroom...well duh that usually is the first thing to show itself Ernie! Lol. Anyway there are also some coming up in the middle of the tub I should’ve circled them I think they’re in the last picture. But you are correct the majority of the fruits prematurely showing up on the sides but what’s strange about the side pins is that there isn’t a gap between the substrate in the liner. It’s not like normal side pins that have that perfect micro climate in the gap. These fuckers appear to be coming from underneath the mycelium and pushing their way through it rather than growing on the surface of it. Well at least the ones in the middle. Like maybe it was knotting when I cased it and they pushed up through the layer of myc.that grew. And of course this may not be what is going on, I’m just saying that’s what it looks like. Because the myc looks tight around the cap like it came through it and not grew off of it. If that makes any sense? In a perfect world I would go to school for mycology so I can learn under the guide of a professor and have dozens of tubs in front of me with all different types of growing scenarios!… In a perfect world. Right now I will have to stick to explaining via text with hard to see pictures and and hope for the continued patience of guys like you with your TC status. Around every corner there’s something to learn in this world of Mycology. Even if this was a full-time job I think every day for the rest of your life you would be learning something about mushrooms. They seem to have a mind of their own. Especially our beloved PC’s
