Natalensis is going to end us all!!! Help!
    #28870854 - 07/19/24 03:35 AM (5 months, 26 days ago)

Hi all, first post here.
I've got a Natalensis growkit, started with mycelium syringe.
All went well, fully colonized in no time. I also PC'd two bags of rye berries and gave those a little squirt as well, they are now also ready for transfer to bulk.

Anyways I have this serious issue, the growkit is exploding!! There's no stopping it.

Initially there was no casing/surfacing layer on the gro kit, and the mycelium was starting to overgrow the edges of the plastic case. No pinning was happening and so, based on someones pictures on here, where the same block of mycelium was cased on only one half of the surface with great success, I decided to add a nice layer of Coco coir on my kit.
Two days later the 5mm layer was completely gobbled up with snow white mycelium.
So I added more, this time 1,5cm and well compacted. Were three days later now and it's pretty much disappearing, and the edges are like a centimeter taller even!!!

I'm afraid I can't contain this, we'll all be absorbed in a week.

All kidding aside, what to do? I've done the whole fruiting conditions stuff correctly initially, and the plastic container is, typically for a growkit, in a clipped close bag with a filter patch and some water on the bottom. Why is it growing so vigorously? How to get it to pin?

Because Nats have a tendency to form blobs . You may have to pick that dense overlay (which is potent)... also how much fresh air are they receiving?

Once fully colonized they dont need to remain in sterile conditions.

For Any other questions Here
