72h since rolling in coir






Would you look at that vitalago kicking in after only 72h, Michael Jackson would be so proud :dancer:

Even if you've never seen a mushroom grow in your life you can tell from these pics that this organism looks to be thriving and seems to be on a purposeful mission. Cant really say that I often get that impression when I see cakes coated in dry verm inside a sgfc, I mean why would we ever assume that the organism would prefer to be coated in something dry?

Especially since abundant knot formation (ime) doesnt seem to form on weeks old growth but instead it always seems to form from the fresh newly formed myc within a week of generation. Dude, just imagine how even more beautiful those tubs would look if those were the same clone on all of em colonizing at the same rate, HEALTH is the most attractive thing to me in terms of cakes
:bashful:

In reply to your post, I can say that I’m a born-again convert to coir on cakes! Very impressed by the vigorous growth on these cakes, especially after (in Cake Wars I) watching my verm coated cakes sit for weeks looking like they were doing nothing. I also used a water tub in that round, but only at room temp in my roughly 21C grow area.

Thank you, friend! I learned something from you, and I’m thankful for that.

Rapid and beautiful growth there FB. It’s been a great learning experience this cake wars, so much to try and implement for the ongoing wars.
Pinning in the jars is seeming like a good idea too if you catch it just at the right time.

This was harvested yesterday too, quite a decent aesthetic.

Now, now, Cakewonder, I know you mean well, 100%, but let’s not use ratings as a bludgeon.

To me, learning to grow is an iterative thing:
learn-do-fail-learn more-do-fail a bit less, and so on.

Experiments have a very high failure rate because one is doing something in the best way one can figure out in the blind, and much is unknown.

True, one could just straight follow a tek 100% and get good results, but for some, FAFO is kind of an irresistible way of life.  Is for me, lots of times, anyhow. Just my 2 cents.

Peace to you, friend!

@Penman - re: much to learn and implement. I agree!

One thing is for certain: based on my observations this round, if I ever compete in a Cake Wars in the future, it’ll be with:
  • short 1/2 pint wide-mouth jars
  • home-ground brown rice flour
  • wet coir as a coating for the cakes
  • water tub fruiting chamber
  • and PESA/AMAZON as the variety. Yowza, it fruited super fast!

I am one of the most experienced PF TEK growers,
here on this board, so I hope youre not ignoring me,
based on some bullshit.

The PF TEK was after all designed to make it easy
formidable and light to grow mushrooms.

When people come on here screaming of massive yields,
no time consumed and even worse yields, or all of that
I always tell them the same:

1. This takes time.

2. If you cant stand waiting this isnt your hobby.

3. There are no "massive yields".
