Thanks man, I really appreciate the words of encouragement from a Shroomery legend.



This is my other tub that's doing much better. I started six all together and that one is the only one that has fruited semi-properly so far. Lost one to trich basically immediately.

Considering I have no idea what I'm doing I'm just happy to have gotten any results at all and looking forward to enjoying some mushies with my friends!

i cant tell if its hulled or not.

personally i like milo/sorghum. wish i could buy just sorghum bird seed but no one sells that. its always cut with millet and sfs.

some cheap grocery store brands of wbs can like 10/45/45 % sfs milo millet.

i like those brands
:imspecial:



Lowe's brand is the most milo-y I've seen

@mushboy

Would you say I could apply that process to Panaeolus species as well?  Or do I need to consider humidity then? I asked a "complicated" humidity question the other day and no one could really answer it.

It was along the lines of if providing humidity for a Panaeolus species could hinder evaporation some and make pinning more difficult.

People say when you see hyphal knots don't do anything, but if the casing is starting to dry after a few days do you need to use humidity then?

Will 1 mist from super high up destroy hyphal knots?

This is for Panaeolus species, I've seen you post in some older threads when you were in the Panaeolus phase and I value your input into this concept.

What is causing this?





Partial colonization of the pseudo-casing layer and now side pins. I feel like the obvious answer is improper surface conditions. Im regretting drilling the extra FAE hole on my EZ dial tubs.

I gave the surface a decent misting and adjusted the humidifier in the room. Just looking for advice on how to avoid this in the future. I've read the surface conditions thread linked in the HHG but I'm a little dense so maybe it's not sticking.




Sorry I'm not really going to answer your question here.  just some quick advice.

if you are regretting an extra hole you made. Just put some tape over it. Problem solved.:hatsoff:

I could've sworn I asked this before but apparently not: Is there a reason cooking your stuff in a rice cooker wouldn't work or in fact be ideal? Acquaintance has this massive rice cooker and the triple threat of intact grain, thorough hydration and even chew seems near identical.

To sterilize your grains you need to attain a certain pressure and temperature for a certain amount of time.

Most rice cookers don't hit 15psi whereas you can tape a couple quarters to a Presto canner jiggler and hit 17-18 psi easily and avoid risking unclean spawn.

Apparently you can sterilize at lower pressures but the time required is not ideal, also I'd assume most rice cookers wouldn't have a pressure gauge.... You can read reports of people using rice cookers or instant pots at 13psi but lots of time they get contamination

1. Should I just remove the lid, cause the large ones are starting to press against it? Or try some dub-tub/bag shenanigans?

2. When should I harvest? The big ones already broke their veil, but there are a lot of small ones that still need to grow.

You can harvest them in phases if you want.  It can be slightly fiddly to do without murdering too many of the littles, but it's very do-able.  Maybe just lop off the ones that are pushing?

If you're into printing the caps you can just cut those off the stipes and leave the stipes in situ until your next harvesting.

Any time, when the mycelium is established and growing, and you've got colonized patches and uncolonized patches.  Give it a few days' peace after inoculation, and a few days to recover after a shake, but then whenever it's patchy - shake.

After it looks fully colonized, I shake it again.  A few days later, once it's recovered, I spawn.  By that time it should be getting pretty difficult to break up.

They're following a tek appropriate for what they're growing, as you have been advised to do for months.

Quote:

You're trying to apply general advice for pan cyans as though it's a rule.  And growing a completely different species using soil instead of peat as your casing.

And I'm going to use ignore, so I'm not tempted to answer your obtuse questions at 6 am and annoy everyone that had the good sense to already do so.

I wish you luck, but more than that, I wish you followed a tek.
