Getting ready to mix CVG+oyster shell for the very first time. Can I boil my well water or is it better to boil distilled water? Also, can I mix it all in a giant metal boiling pot? Thanks


Get a brand new 5 gallon bucket or better yet a 5 gallon drink cooler and dedicate that to your coir. You do not want to hydrate your coir in any container that had anything organic in it. People have had coir mold because they hydrated it in the same buckets they did their grain.

Well water will be fine.  Ditch the oyster shells.

Is it dumb to mix a jar of colonized PE grain and a jar of cubes?

I have a lot of pins and my substrate isn't fully colonized. Which I understand is a sign of contam. Everything does look/smell good tho.

Is it possible that the PE and cubes are just colonizing/fruiting at different rates and that's why there's pins before colonizing? Or is it likely just contam?

Pinning before colonization is a sign of contamination.
Mixing cube spawn together usually causes both to under perform.

How’s this rodeo look for a first time clown? About 10 days into Bods no mod tub. SV10. I think my sub is getting too dry. I live in a very dry climate and the tubs feel lighter. A touch of shrinkage along the short sides of the tub between the sun and tub. Thoughts? How am I doing? My wife ain’t thrilled….:smile:

Then I have a 3 day old tub of APE. I didn’t case it and had exposed grains but recently read a few posts that casing is a MUST with PE varieties. Then some said it’s not. And some said it’s too late to add a casing now. WTF. I’m letting it ride unless the consensus is to fuck with it. I’d prefer not to have blobs.

That last one is looking slow, if you started them at the same time.  Otherwise it all looks pretty good.  I can't see water droplets on the surface myc though, so a little misting may be in order.  It's normal for the sub to pull away from the walls. You will probably get some fruits popping up around the sides.

I would personally try adding the psuedo-casing now.  You won't avoid blobs if you do nothing.  I think it will all colonize if you firmly pack a psuedo-casing on there now.  That's my opinion.

Yes, the APE tub was sent about 8 days later hence the slow go. I’m seriously considering adding a casing, maybe tonight. Will mist all tubs as well.

Thank you very much for the input.

If you eat a bunch of fresh mushroom they will all turn blue the moment you bite them, but you will still trip balls, I promise you.

That looks like cobweb mold to me. Mold doesn't need an environment that's too moist, it just needs mold spores.

Mold spores comes in? Shit i work sterile i belive maybe it was a mistake the low Sub Bulk Ratio? And it has nothing to do with not enaugh air exchange ore something?

How can i prevent it next time?

Is my Substrate for the trash?


QUOTE This mold is part of a group of opportunistic fungi that thrive in environments rich in organic material and moisture—conditions typical of mushroom growing setups.


"Organic Material"

My Coir has Organic material in it maybe ist the wrong coir? I bought it cheap not high quality stuff is that the main problem here? Then I buy tomorrow a Canna Quality Coco Brick?
