Completely agree , they grow strait up in total darkness , you could keep the lights off n flip it sideways and they bend when they hit a wall , turn a fan on they turn there caps towards the wind sit them in a water tub n light from underneath they won't go in the water.
This is the result of tropic responses it's not about light it's about the end game for the mushrooms which is spore dispersal, so of the wind is coming from one side they will put there cap towards it to carry spores, a wall in there way they will move there is just so much more to it but as hobbyist people have tried they're best to simplify everything and see what we don't need rather than what actually helps

So I have a bag that looks like it's steadily growing mycelium


So my question is, am i right to assume that even though the mycelium growth is rounded its not creamy rounded and therfore not bacterial because i can see an uneven edge of tendrils on the rounding?

Essentially I'm saying this isn't bacterial is it? :lol:

Looks good, but nothings ever black and white... I'd say,  So far so good.

Also another tip- especially with jars but bags work.
When you see grains pushed against the container (against the glass) you see the excess moisture. Even before the myc reaches that area.

When bacterial that little excess moisture is more translucent vs transparent, or even a little milky.

I didn't know that about the light under the tub will make them not grow towards the water. I was just asking about something like that a day or two ago because lots of mine were going towards the water and I couldn't figure out what to do other than sacrifice them...

I was suggesting light cuz I recently saw the thread where somebody posted and they had really any worm like fruits and somebody told him to put it next to the window sill and then give  some indirect sunlight and it would help a lot. And they immediately recovered like you said they started growing up and in the right direction but they also became fat and meaty..


I definitely wasn't trying to say light was the answer to all his issues. Just seems like light does help as opposed to not having it any at all. Even though they don't need it they do benefit.
I'm glad that you responded though because I did learn a lot of info about it from you.  so I appreciate that

So do I need to wrap this into towel now? Or is it good because it's insulated?




No need to wrap, just let it sit until cooled.  I do the same using an insulated container

Any reason for them growing so long and thin? Will they fatten up?




Pretty sure that's lack of FAE.


    :whathesaid:


Definitely make sure you're providing enough Fae and light for at least 12 hours a day.


Thanks. I poked another set of holes. It's been troublesome figuring out FAE on these bottles. I wanted to see condensation forming on the inside of the bag, but it barely does. So I didn't add any more airflow. The room is about 47% RH.

Edit: And there is a light on it generally while I'm awake.

Lots of side pens coming in on my second flush. Should I do anything about it? Remove the cake and put it in the tub? Or should I just let it ride? will they be fine?

I just did my bulk in my bucket last night. And it's turned out to be just a bit over fc. What's the best way to bring it down to FC? I know you can squeeze it out but I feel like that's going to take a long time if I'm squeezing handful by handful and filling up my shoe boxes. So can I just add a little bit extra dry verm in the mixture instead?

If a bunch of petris start growing mold after a month of sitting around then the ffu didn't filter out the smallest particles or just slow mold?

I don't understand how all the spores from a print can be "dead" or whatever, and it only grows mold?

Throw a handful of verm in it and mix it up.  Check FC.  Keep doing that until you reach proper FC

Can you pour the excess water out of the bucket while holding the sub with your hand?

Just a thought, I don't know how much over FC it is.

If you've got that much water in your bucket you've definitely screwed up LOL you shouldn't be able to pour any water out. Only squeeze a little bit. And FC means when you squeeze really hard just a couple drops comes out


So what I was saying was when I squeeze I get more of the and bunches of water droplets out of my Knuckles and the bottom of my hand as opposed to just a couple drops of the bottom of my hand.

If a prints not dried correctly then packaged this can happen

Natalensis tub - is this amount of fuzzy feet normal? It was my understanding it could be an indication of smothering, but also genetic. Fruits have all been skinnier like that, but still not spaghetti either. Boxes are dubbed and either offset a bit or have clothes pins increasing the gap. I guess I could go more air...
