I suggest a smaller tub if you have one :awesomenod:

Unfortunately, I don't have a smaller tub.

I have 9 other jars, a few are almost ready to go in.

Is there anything I can do in the mean time to make this better? Maybe stack some water cups in there or something?

Sure or like a big bowl, but if more cakes are on the way you could also just mist more often until they arrive in their new home.

If you have some plastic bags availble this method works well. How large is that fruiting chamber? Using Ziplocs (Ziplocks) as Fruiting Chambers (FC

@ Jefferykite

Get yourself a jar or container that is larger than your cake. Wrap that with butcher or waxed paper, leaving one end open and tape it so it keeps it shape. Wrap it so you can slide it off, which you should do. Place this over the whole cake. What this does is give it it's own microenvironment and it makes them pin like mad usually.

I went and looked at your pic. You may have to rig up a shelf instead of stacking on cups. Which is bad because the mushrooms growing will topple your cake into the drink.

Ok, please don't laugh

What about this?

I did come back and take off the cap and cut some holes in the top of the other half cup

innovative, i’m diggin it - assume you have a couple of holes poked in the bottles for ventilation? I’ve never tried it that way, but it oughta work for a while. The pins often poke out horizontally & diagonally…and come from anywhere. Best of luck on your grow!

Sounds like my spores. Maybe I got a lot of non-fruiting mycelium. I'm thinking I'll have to clone a fruit when I can get one again for fruits to utilize. And then at the same time I'll have to dedicate jars to getting more fruitful spores by taking prints over 7 generations from anything that I can get from straight spores, maybe only getting sub-optimal flushes until I get closer to those 7 generations. Then maybe I will have prints that can be master prints that I won't struggle as much with. No idea if this is how it's done but sounds promising.
