Can gnats get through Micropore?

Logic tells me they're too big to get past 2 layers, but I seem to recall reading a post saying otherwise 🤔

I've been using fahtlocks for my summer grows, but I want to spawn some tubs without bags today.. I'm thinking of doing modded tubs with Micropore over the holes and wrapping the lid gap with plastic wrap.. think it would work?

I’d be interested in this answer too. I can’t imagine gnats getting past micropore tape.

Put some apple cider vinegar in a container and cover with mp tape you'll find out if they can get in it

Not a bad idea.. but I guess I'm more worried about "babies" :lol: little ones that are too small for me to easily see their bodies floating in vinegar, but still big enough to get in there, set up camp, and raise some hell

Pinning at edges only, could the reason be not enough water in cake? It was dormant for 3 and half weeks and probably only started pinning because of cold shock. Would it be better to harvest the pins and redunk?

Let it fruit, it didn't start fruiting because of a cold shock.

From my research it shows that side pins occur when the surface has a suboptimal climate for pinning, the sides have had a more favorable microclimate than the surface thus producing pins on the sides.

That's what I expect to be the case, and I assume it's more humid there but it's just a wild guess.

Any idea as to why it's only on edges (and I noticed side pins between cake and casing)? The only thing that comes to my mind would be humidity.

Why did my veils break so quickly and why didn't these get any bigger? Posted yesterday, one big one, lots of side action.

Today, came in all the veils had broken. I thought I had a few more days.

Anyways, first grow attempt - lots to learn. I have 85G wet. Biggest was 11.5G. Now they're in the dehydrator.

That is mostly genetics. Those would have likely continued to grow. My Fiji for example often pops it's veil as pins but they continue to grow to be pretty impressive. Some that do that will dump spore everywhere and some won't.

Short answer, genetics mostly.

When top fruiting should the substrate not get colonized as well? I have 3 jars where it’s not colonizing it at all…

Top fruiting should only be done with a fully or nearly fully colonized substrate. If it's not colonizing at all then theres nothing to top fruit from.

Aight what the fuck? So I had jars that I didn’t have shoeboxes for I threw coir on top so what you’re saying is it never would have colonized that bit like how it happens when you spawn to bulk? So it’s not drawing moisture from that stuff on top of it in the jar? I’m so confused about top fruiting now? Which makes sense cause it’s fruiting off the millet instead lmao.

Oh you're just asking about the coir?

Yeah the coir I placed on top wasn’t colonized at all once I put it on top. Like maybe a quarter inch or so. The one jar has small mushrooms already so I assume the other two will do the same.

Maybe I’m confusing you. The jar was fully colonized millet. I placed coir on top. The jar colonized maybe a quarter inch of the coir. It then proceeded to fruit from the millet after a week or so.

Kind depends on the state of your grain. If the grain is pinning and you add coir, you’ve just cased it and oftentimes mushrooms will just grow through it. Given enough time it will likely colonize it somewhat. My APE tubs would colonize maybe 20% if it or so, but mostly just grew through that top layer/casing
