[Question] is my cake fucked or should I keep it growing.
    #28007549 - 10/20/22 08:31 AM (2 years, 2 months ago)

Strain - Hawaiian PESH - S2B Oct, 5th

It’s been over 2 weeks and I was noticing super small and slow growth. I have recently removed the heating pad from underneath my tub. Could this be contamination or just weak mycelium. I think I added pictures of my tub. New to posting on shroomry.

I'm assuming you're talking about the photos in your gallery, to upload them here, click "PICS" at the top left of the screen, copy the url underneath each picture, then paste them into your comment, being careful to separate the url from any other text.
As for your photos, it looks OK, can't see any contam but 2 weeks is a long time. Perhaps a bacterial contamination but it's hard to tell. The heat pad may have also dried out your sub too much.
Perhaps wait for a more experienced cultivator.

looking at the 2 pics in your gallery i dont see anything worrisome at this point. need more deets tho. how did you make your spawn, and sub, what spawn to sub ratio did you use?

heating pads are for cramps, which mycelium is fortunate to never suffer

My substrate dose look pretty dry and it would make sense that the heat pad was taking all the moisture out. Would you recomend I start to hydrate it back by spraying sides a lot. And a fine mist over the top? I have a spray bottle that makes a very fine mist so it wouldn’t bruise or hurt the myc.

I have 3lbs spawn bag. Mixed with vermiculite, coco coir, and gypsum. If you look up boomer shroomer. They sell what I bought as far as monotub/substrate. The heating pad is also for germination of seeds but my house dose get cold this time of year so I thought I might need it

ah another boomer grow
:tubgirl:
its looking ok so far but if you injected grains with spores there is going to be some amount of contam, that could be slowing it down a bit. the cold could be playing a part as well. how low does it get in that room?

if it looks dry mist the surface. you dont need to mist the walls as they will not grow shrooms

Mist the surface, if it as absorbed in 24 hours mist again, repeat.
