Ime Enigma shouldn't be that slow. Colonizing time for grains is about the same as any cube, only the fruiting part takes longer. I usually see first pins  on day 17 from spawn and I usually harvest between 50 - 60 days from spawn, depending on how it goes. It's ready when it stops growing and becomes softer to the touch. It will likely also have turned very blue at this stage. I never bother with 2nd flushes with Enigma.

Good to hear it doesn't colonize slow on grains.
Around Day 17 from spawn is when i usually harvest for some cubes lol. 60 days is a long time! I'm still gonna grow it though, i've always wanted to. I never do second flushes even with regular cubes. Can I just twist and pull the enigma blobs out when harvesting since I won't be doing a second flush and don't care if i mess up the sub? Or can that mess up the fruits? Someone on here said we need to use a knife and slice it off, but I'm guessing they said that because they're aiming for a second flush?

Just mixed some shoebox using bucket tek and according to bod's s³.

Only thing im not sure about is if i should mist a bit before putting a lid/bag on the shoebox, bod doesn't mention misting when first making the shoebox, only after a week or so. Also im worried about putting bags with holes because of loss of moisture so im not sure if i should put a lid at the start to help keep moisture.

Thanks everyone:)

That's from Scemilope

Think it took awhile not as long as enigma tho.

He did case one tub and I think it was the quicker iirc

Shake then send once signs of recovery (the quicker the higher ratio, slower=lower)

I'm just looking for it to start recovery not an actual recovery

Sup yall.

As usual, thank you for the help in advance

During a spawn run, I usually cook grains at 15psi for 3 hours in bags.

My propane tank ran out mid way through and while switching tanks out, the psi dropped to about 11-12 for about 10-15 minutes.

Do I need to start over?? Or can I just add on additional 10-15 minutes on the back end?

The quicker it is, the more coir you CAN use.

I'd keep the amount of spawn the same as usual per what ever size tub you normally use.

But the more coir the longer it will take to colonize... hence you want a speedy culture.


Some are quicker than others.

Should be fine...if worried add another half hour.... if you've got the water for it.( Once you're  at full psi)

With grains, err on the side of extra time.
If the pressure had dropped below 10 PSI for an extended period, you might need to start over.

With agar or liquid cultures, the risk is lower, and a brief PSI drop is less likely to cause contamination.

This should be clearer. The color is more blue than green.
