1st timer, please help
    #28396297 - 07/15/23 10:34 AM (1 year, 6 months ago)

Started this 1st time run in a shoe box, using the uncle ben tek, wanting any help from or tips from all of you amazing people, i tried to dub tub and put into fruiting conditions a week ago, not seeing any pinning, temps are 73 to 74 on outside of the shoeboxes, not sure if i should close up the lids and let the mycelium grow more into the substrate, or if i should keep the dub tub effect going, also not sure if substrate is too dry? Being in summer not sure what I'm doing wrong for no pins, i have 2 shoe boxes same strain of JMF so i put one with the lid back on and the other shoe box with the dub tub and a light above it, please help 🙏 desperately wanting a win here

I also did the 650g coco coir, 8 cups of vermiculite,  gypsum for the bulk substrate sorry for not mentioning that

No sweat homie, no time wasted. Your tub looks good, just a bit dry. How long has it been since spawn? My quick recommendation would be to prep your substrate with more water next time & to leave the lids on your pins need room to grow. With shoebox tek, our subs get all of the FAE they need from spawn-harvest passively through the gap between the lid & the tub. So when we dub, we're really just giving the fruits more room to grow if needed.

For this tub, I'd give it a light mist & leave the lids secured until you see fruits. Welcome to the shroomery :cheers:

Thank you buddy
for being supportive and awesome ty , so your suggestion is to put the lid back on ,light mist and wait to pin, correct ,no light for now, the lid is grey, dub tub was clear so i though light would help pin?, ty so much for your help  🙏
Also it HAS been one week since putting into fruiting conditions  or flipping the lid to answer your ?

Noticed when i put water on the sides w a syringe, the bottom is full of mycelium white as can be, top is dry, should i flip it?, and let that side fruit?, or just mist, inject with distilled water and put lid on it?    Also on the other tub i noticed 2 days after dub tub this showed up

The one on the right, dub tub when necessary if the fruits start to push the grey lid up

Thank you so much, also is it normal for the bottom to be full of mycelium and the top not?, i put water on the sides as others mentioned it looked dry, water being on the bottom where the mycelium is, is that ok?, i turned off the light and did the lids as you guys mentioned,  when should i check it again or do i let it go until a week then check for pins, ty SO much for any and all your help
