Another question.
I had a good first flush of APE, but the second run seems to have stalled out. Hundreds of little tiny pins showing but no growth. It has been almost a month since the first flush was harvested. What happened?




Did you rehydrate it after the first flush?


I did. I used a long stainless steel tube with a small funnel in the top and watered all 4 corners until water came to the top of the sub. Then let it soak overnight and drained the excess off.
The myc seems to be going strong on the sides and bottom. Should I consider flipping it?


APEs are slow. Sounds like you rehydrated it correctly. Surface looks good to me, just a bit dry. As a olddad said, it looks thirsty and I agree. Try hydrating it again. Given the pins on the surface, I see no need to flip it. I give you credit though because APEs & Pans I still can’t cultivate.

I've never flipped a sub, it shouldn't really be necessary,  ever.

It bothers me when someone mentions their cat or dog. It’s a pet peeve of mine.


Don't worry my man it was just a joke.. i don't own a cat. I own two.


You missed the subtlety of the pet part of the pet peeve? My dogs thought it was hilarious.



I chuckled fwiw.

If I run into a stubborn sub that stalls out I like to add another top layer and fill in the sides with slightly above field capacity coir.

Honestly, this was my first try at APE. I've only been doing regular cubes for about two years so still a noob.
I ordered a LC syringe from a reputable site and did everything exactly the same (Bod's tek) as with regular cubes. LC to hydrated, PC'd oats, 5 weeks in the grain, then 3 qts grain to 7 qts of coir with a about 1/2 inch coir on top. Mashed it down like Bod does and let it sit. It was only two weeks when the first pins came up. It was actually a little faster than my experience with cubes.

I'm going to try re-hydrating again and if that doesn't work, I will try that. Thanks

I read 'Ieproos' (Elm Rose) every time I saw your name, but now I realize it's leproos (leper). No wonder I couldn't for the life of me figure out what an Ieproos would look like.

What is this monstrosity? It’s what you get when your shaky hand spazzes and spoojes LC all over the plate. I think this looks clean despite my attempts to go full fail. Can anyone confirm this is clean?

I don't think you can be sure with it all grown out like that. But a small transfer from just about anywhere should let you know what is up. In fact, take several transfers and watch for nice even growth.

Would each transfer go to their own plate or put 2-3 on a single plate?

I’ll answer not because I’m right but to find out if I’m thinking clearly and learning.

If I transfer 3 to one plate and they are all clean then no harm or foul. However if one isn’t clean then I need to do another transfer.

If I do multiple plates with single transfers then I can go to spawn on the clean ones.
