Not nearly as cheap, but I just got this one for $40 and it has clear trays and temp control seems to work. The gaps are a bit big though, was thinking about getting some sort of screen or cutting parchment paper so stuff doesn't fall through.

This is why I try to ignore it in any way possible. Some friends are wildly enthousiastic about this shit, but it just scares me. Especially the idea that this crap is instructed by corporations and learns from the average internet user. Advanced versions of it were used against the people of Gaza and pointed out important military targets: schools, hospitals, playing children, elderly people in wheelchairs, pregnant women and just men in general. Look, I've found another one! ...and it's gone. We should be learning, finally, from our behavior. Not some cold machine that even lacks the endocrine plumbing required for empathy.

If possible post a pic because no one can really determine what's goin on in ur tub  right now

Once u have a pinset u don't really want to mist too much


The whole mist kills pins and causes aborts is a myth unless they are staying wet for too long and you don't have correct fae in your tub

That being said I'm not telling u to mist and once u have a pinset if u need to add any water it's probably best to bottom water it vs misting at that point

But you should post a pic so people can see what your tub looks like

When making transfers from one plate to  another is it necessary to push the transferred wedge into the surface of the agar on the new dish?

Or is it okay to just lightly place it without pressing it in at all?

If it doesn't matter. does it make any difference?

They sell the Nesco at Fleet Farm for $80 or something.

But I've seen the exact same model at Goodwill for $10.




I get all my stuff like that from eBay usually new and cheap cheaper than you can find it other places.

Swift and smooth, just get it to stick. The less fussing about the better, I'd think.

It doesn't matter , just a quick smooth transition.
If you're using plates and find the wedge sliding around on you pour a bit deeper so the lid holds the wedge in place

I am dealing with the same exact situation.

I ended up buying a small indoor greenhouse, humidifier, and controller. I set it up 5 days ago and have noticed increased mycelium growth, but still no pins. I had a hard time keeping it properly hydrated prior to this. The substrate still looks a little dry, but the humidity is between 85-90% in the greenhouse.

Its been exactly 3 weeks since S2B, and 2 weeks since FC.

Ok cool. Just making sure.  I made a bunch of transfers the other day and two of them seem to be taking right to the surface like you normally see. But a bunch of the other ones are kind of just Little fuzz balls at the moment not really attaching to the surface.

I just wanted to make sure that wasn't cuz of something I did wrong. And  is this just what they normally look like at this early stage?  The first two are the ones taking to the surface right away. The rest are the fuzz balls

In general, for Penis Envy should you most more during fruiting (once mushrooms and pins have already formed and started growing), less, or stay the same?

Its my first time growing this strain, and I just watched this video that said the shrooms suck up the water from the substrate so it is good to mist more, or even shoot water down the side of the tub or inject the substrate with water.

when you already have a pinset/fruits formed bottom watering is a better idea at that point if its needed

Just wanted to jump on and run this past you folks.

Agar plate from no pour Tek. Just lme and agar no food colouring added.

Is the red marking on the upper outer rim an indication of contam?

Something about this isn't sitting right. Any idea of what the contaminate is in here? Plate looked good and this was colonizing well even after the first shake. 24 hours after the second shake it got all sweaty and some grain turned black.
