Pretty happy with this so far, but what's up with the split stipes?
These are rusty whites. Thanks!

More pins. Heat is back on now!



Well there are a bunch of knots, so hopefully the warmer Temps will coax them into pins.

It looks like you're running unmodified? Maybe more FAE, as it's a main trigg'a.

I've been misting but there's water pooling on the surface if I mist more. I used a liner so all the moisture from the tub walls is going between the liner and the tub and not able to soak back into the substrate. I'm thinking about punching some holes in the bottom of the liner next time so the water can reabsorb...?

Yea the surface looks a little matted (from misting).

After harvest use a scalpel to cut X in the liner (or remove carefully)
Im Not a fan of dark liners. If I use one it's as clear as possible.

What should be my checklist for preventing trich during S2B? I just lost four shoeboxes to it even though I was certain that my colonized grains were fully done and clean. I had a 1:1 maybe 1:2 ratio of spawn grain to coco bliss pasteurized coco coir (so shouldn't have had any kind of pet shop style trich added and this is the same kind used in several TEK guides here)

The only thing I can think of is that maybe it was overhydrated, though I did think it was perfectly at field capacity. The boxes themselves looked to be quite humid with moisture along the sides and top pooling that would drop if I touched the lid. I also made to sanitize the room entirely before I even started work with Lysol and 70% alcohol spray (now I'm reading this isn't really necessary)

Why clear? First few tubs I did without liners but sooo many side pins that were a pain to harvest without damaging the substrate.... I thought I'd try a liner. Thanks for the replies!

Most of the time it's due to jars not being as clean

S2B? Spawn to bulk you mean? Almost certainly an issue with the grain spawn itself. You don't need sterility for spawning to bulk.

How did you do your jars? Spores to grains? If so that is most likely your issue and why its recommended to do agar first.

It's odd to only have 1 in first flush. The second might be better.

I always run unmodified 6qt sterilites. both the white lid and the grey lid type. I just leave them on a shelf, not inside any modded monos.

Just like this.

As long as you got your field capacity down when you spawned you should be good. There's a bunch of primordia in there so it's odd that you only have one shroom IMHO.

I personally would let it ride until that one is ready to print and clone.

BOD's Bucket TEK for Coir substrate - Circa 2017 so take that with a grain of salt. But I switched to this and have never had a problem with Trich that wasn't spawn related since.

It had been proven that you don't need to cook or have boiling water to hydrate, but it makes me feel better, and it would eliminate the Coir being your contamination vector. Do you have any pictures of your grain spawn?

What was your method of inoculation?

What was your grain prep?

What type of spawn lid (modified- filter?)

Did you shake and wait for recovery before spawning?

Yeah I only have them in the mono to store them because air here is a little dry and I wanted to control the environment a little bit more (humidity inside the mono is in the 90s)

Should I take them out of the mono to see if it helps?

Yo Ax, those white lids look like the same bulk 10pks from walmart? I assume you let them colonize while stacked like that? I wasn't sure if stack would flex the lid enough to screw with FAE either by reducing or increasing it. Youve noticed no issues though, I assume?

To be able to spot contamination in a place that is perfect environment (stagnant, moist) to harbor them.

Side pins are notorious from Maz but other should be able to be avoided by packing the shit out of the sub during spawning.

My coir is probably just barely under FC (squeeze the F#@! outta it)
I save a little bit of spawn to throw on top of surface. Pack really well especially the sides. Level... top layer is not as compacted... level... and spray this top layer till it's soaked but not pooling.

This Will give the mycelium a direction to grow towards.

Remember we are simulating nature. Water and fresh air are triggers.
So If there is any gaps or loosely compacted subs, this will create the ideal place to fruit.

Hello,

I most probably have a mix spawn + sub too wet, due to the spawn. The specie is Pan Cyan. The mix is roughly 50% spawn, 50% subs (~2/3 hpoo + 1/3 "hay").
The operation was done 9 days ago, absolutely no visible change.

Can I put it somewhere dryier/hotter to paliate this issue or am I doomed ?




I reupload my question since it was lost in the abyssal flow of messages, plus I add some stupid emoji to attract attention : :nothingtoadd:

What temp?

"Hay" ?

Can't say I've seen that as a normal sub. Straw yes.  But hay is alfalfa not grain stalks

I thought I did pack the shit outta it! I was afraid I was doing it to hard... I'm big lol
I will do it more next time with a linerless tub.

So after you mix the spawn and coir you pack it in real snug and then you sprinkle more spawn on top and then pseudo case it? Then soak the pseudocasing. This will make the mycelium grow towards the water? Am I following?

LMFAO HAY im done. Aye fungify what temp is it at and how lon did it take to colonize your quart jars? Also pan cyans apparently like less grain and more substrate so a 1 to 3 ratio is better next time.
