Need some feedback
    #28369980 - 06/22/23 10:51 AM (1 year, 6 months ago)

First time hobby grower here, loving all the science behind cultivating. These are my first shoe boxes, and these pictures were taken on day 7 after s2b. Just curious how these are turning out, did I utterly fail or are they turning out ok.

It's a bit puffy, kinda like a cotton ball. I'll leave it be.

No, no, no. Give us some detail of your process so far and how the tubs are getting passive air and such please. You may well get some fruits at least.

I followed neglect tek, rye grain was spawned with LC. Cvg is my sub, s2b into 6 qt shoeboxes and left in a room that gets plenty of light. To my understanding the shoeboxes would provide enough fae. I had no signs of contam throughout the process, but than again I am very new to this.

Have a read of the clean spawn checklist in my siggy. Beginners often find it hard to identify bacterial spawn; its a good place to start, because success starts from clean spawn, once you get that down, everything else falls in line.

Im assuming you didnt Test your LC on agar

Just to clear this up for the OP, EVERY culture needs to be proven 100% clean before it gets sent to grain or fuckery like this will often happen.  It doesn't matter if you got it from a 'trusted' vendor, some shithead on etsy or if you made them - they all need to be confirmed clean before going to grain.  You can get fruits from bacterial spawn, but it always produces less than it normally would.  If it's bad enough, it will weaken the mycelium to the point that molds and other contams will take over and fruit.

I appreciate all the responses. I'm going to go ahead and assume contam than. I indeed did not check my LC on agar. I'll just LITFA.
