No droplets neither condensation on side and top of monotub. Should I keep misting despite mushrooms have shown?
It's a serious issue to have very high temps? (27-28°C day and 22 - 25°C night)
How do you manage to slow temps?
My mushrooms are thinner and smaller because of high temps?

Here's some pictures of my little project:mushroom2:

I have cubes in a small bag. What is the preferred method: close the bag and make cut on the side, or top fruit by making holes in the upper part? (or something else?)

Gourmet question... I have a jar of lions mane that was inoculated with clean agar chunks 12/15. I have mostly only grown cubes and this is looking super bacterial to me. Maybe im grasping but I have to ask, does lions mane looks different than cubes? Ive read lions mane will push out little fruit bodies once fully colonized and I think I'm seeing a bunch of baby fruit bodies pressed up against the glass and on top of the grain. Anyway, is this jar steaming hot trash or should I try spawning in a bag of wood chips?

Yes, LM spawn looks different. I don't have enough knowledge to state it is to toss or not. It looks like it is pinning to me anyways. Better to ask in the gourmet section actually. There is also a hericium thread: https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/27286241

Why woodchips btw? Anyways, hope to see more questions and answers in the gourmet section. Cheers.

That jar doesn’t look good. Too wet. The thick white patches are indeed fruit beginning to form. Lion’s Mane mycelium is usually very fast, very fine & whispy looking, and sometimes difficult to see. That jar has probably been fully colonized for some time now. The good news is Lion’s Mane is fast and hardy. I’ve gotten fruit from bad jars. Spawn it and see. If nothing else, it’s a learning experience. I’ve never fruited LM on woodchips, but it should work. Most use sawdust, and that would likely be my preferred substrate for an ugly jar if I were spawning it. I think it would take longer to fully colonized the chips, working inside the wood. When you’re dealing with contamination you want the mushroom to be able to outrun the competition. Again, only one way to find out, though. Let us know how it goes.

I have a mushroom to clone, and it's covered with spores. I want to clean the outside a bit before I do the cloning. How to best clean it?

Too much free air exchange.
No fanning or misting should be neccesary.

Isn't the SFD there for FAE?  or do you keep the lids a 1/4 loose after inoculation?

You excise a piece from the middle of the stipe and clean it up on agar.

Clean it up with H2O2. After you've done that, take inner tissue. You basically destroyed everything on the outside of the mushroom that might drop into your sterile tissue.

Those lids are not canning safe according to the website. Says non-canning for usage.

If they are made with plastic, you need pp5 ones. Ball seems to have discontinued their old ones, they were white tops. I bought some knockoffs recently. I remove any silicone ring, and yeah, just turn the lids a tiny bit after shaking them.

In addition to these last two comments, doing that will leave it extremely unlikely that you germinate spores. Clones takes off immediately, spores take a while to germinate. Take a transfer from the outside edge of your clone plate and I'm positive you'll have a true clone and not MS.

Yes, they are not safe for canning food.  That's because they do not hold a seal like the two piece metal lids do.  They are perfectly fine for cult and grain since they do not need to hold a perfect seal for a long period of time.

PP5 = good to go :thumbup:

No it is. This hobby, without crafting solutions to weird problems, is not the hobby I signed up for.

Any tips for getting out of a laziness slump? It's been 5 days of telling myself I'm going to transfer off a bacterial plate and I cant even do that. I spawned a couple shoeboxes on the 4th and then I've sat on my ass doing nothing since. Havent even put away laundry thats been sitting in a basket for the last week. Yuck...all of it. Hopefully tomorrow when I dont work will be the day.
