Got my tubs all set up. Lids loosely on. Should I be misting when I don't see surface droplets, or do I wait for pins to do that?

Ive already got some surface colonization going on.

The whole fae debate, should I leave the lids cracked, on but upside down? How bad is it to open them to get a clear look, I ask because I've got a lot of condensation on the walls/lids and it's hard to see

Once the surface is fully colonized, you start monitoring surface conditions. If the surface looks dry, give it a misting.

Assuming you run unmodded tubs, yes, you can leave it slightly cracked, or upside down. It doesn't hurt to check it once in while, just don't go crazy taking everything out and opening the tubs ten times a day.

If you drilled holes you can latch the lids tight and don't worry about it.

Cubes are pretty forgiving.

Thanks! just to clarify:

right now, since the surface is not fully colonized, there really is no need for me to be checking surface conditions, misting, correct? the fact that there is condensation in the tub is probably indicative that there is enough moisture?

and yes, unmodified tubs.

No, full colonization first, then surface conditions, then primordia. If you're misting now, you're just spraying down the mycelium that has already surfaced.

If there's condensation on the walls, that's a reasonably good indicator.

Hi,

I just tried to watch one of the videos on Munchauzen's youtube channel but the account is now deleted. No big deal youtube removes this type of content all the time. But I also noticed that his Reddit account has been wiped. I think he got busted. Spread the word. Do you think that he is gonna snitch? Maybe he already has?

I doubt it. Don't say stuff like that unless you really know.

Don't spread hypotheticals...
And if you're worried about something you have done, clean house (and devices).

If that actually happened, may the powers that be have mercy!

Thank you, this part was not clear to me. follow up question:

I put my last two tubs together last night, so there is no surface colonization yet, i assume i should NOT be misting them either, unless it looks real real dry.

now i just have to do the hard part, be patient, and wait for full surface colonization lol

Yeah, I also really like to pull out my mister, try not to do it. If your coir was field capacity it's going to take quite some time before it's dry.

Just remember once mycelium has surfaced, misting (unless super fine mist) will mat the myc.

What happens if the myc is matted? What is the consequence?

Dear Myc,

The mistings will continue until surface conditions improve!

Quick question do these WBS jars look like they need 120 minutes at 15 PSI im 750ft above sea level. I set everything up already its heating with the weight off put a little distilled white vinegar in the water and have more than enough water for 120 min. Its an eltric pressure canner so I set a timer for 120 minutes should I have done 90? I think this is safer read it works alright in old forms.

Each jar is 16oz of WBS 32oz jars. Should be a pound each so I can do 4lb a day if I really wanted.

Anyone think there's a potential issue im not seeing?

I dont see the upside to trying to save 30min of sterilization time. It's already in the PC and requires no further work. Never have and never will run for 90min bc it costs me nothing for the peace of mind. 🤷‍♂️

:fuckyeah: my pressure canner just beeped so I set the weight it shoots steam pockets until 2 minutes before it beeped its just blinking at e 0 because the estimated time till you set the weight went off. Actually it just changed reached the 15PSI 120 minutes left. Im just going to wait till tomorrow everything automatically done now.

Good day shroomery!

Does this jar look OK?  If yes (fingers crossed), it needs a little more time right?

Same jar from both sides. Spawned on 12-8, shaken on 12-18.
