I use the soal of my shoe/boot/fucking flip flop to smack my jars on to break them up.

Warning notice. I do this while the footwear is secured nice and well secure on my foot. I don’t just beat my jars with a dirty ass cowboy boot while ther setting on the table.

Trich, turns blue, refuses to fruit, whatever the hell this is




I know people will refute it but I think its the coir. Theres saplings growing out of half the tubs I do, and despite every tek on here suggesting to use 5x the mass of water to coir to hydrate it, or to use 4-4.5 qts water to 1 brick and 2 quarts verm, this coir will only hold about 1/2 that, with or without verm, before being way over field capacity.

Im kind of grasping at straws looking for anything different I can be doing. My agar is always good and when its not its very obvious. So i dont think its my sterile technique.


At first glance that one looks bacterial and the yellow blobs/yellow droplets are metabolites. It's not completely cheese lasagna (I'm trademarking that phrase by the way, if anyone wants to challenge me show prior art) like some of my boxes, but it's pretty close.

That bright yellow on the left could be some mold though.

Either way, bacteria or mold or both, it's fighting something.

It's unlikely to be the coir, but it's easy to rule it out, just sterilize it. Mushboy has done a tek on that, search for it. It's pretty simple, just prepare the coir as normal, put it in oven bags and PC it for like 2.5-3h. Poke a hole in the bags/cover with MP tape, cause my bags almost blew up last time, they stretched out like balloons lol.

I still got mold from sterilized coir, just saying so don't get your hopes up too much.

QQ regarding harvesting APE

I've read that fruits are ready when the stem feels squishy like a marshmallow. When I squeezed one of my fruits this morning, the stem right below the cap has a nice squish to it, however, lower down the stem closer to the substrate is still pretty stiff and not marshmallow feeling. Am I waiting for the entire stem to have that marshmallow feel?

lol if you’re curious why, the SFD is somewhat hydrophobic already and won’t really get wet. Foiling it, I’ve been told, can actually lead to damaging it in the long run. The foil traps moisture, makes contact with the SFD, and can sorta force water into it, compromising the filter. That’s what I’ve been told.

im sure everyone harvests PE a bit differently but whenever i’ve grown it i just wait for the whole stipe to be kinda soft. they don’t really drop spores so there’s not really any harm in letting them go a bit “too” long imo

How lucky are you with bacterial spawn? I'd shoebox and light some incense.

Those are bubbles in the glass, they're most likely there by design.
I do believe that your spawn IS bacterial though mate.
