Last night inoculated two jars with my roommate’s penis envy subtype lc. I followed his directions in terms of prepping the brown rice he also insisted I use gypsum so I did.



Now I also had some orchid soil mix which I bought thinking I could use it as a replacement for coir (there is coir in it)

Now I decided why not try inoculating that jar with the same lc. Just as a wild experiment. Here is the result a day later.



Now I realize it could just be the contrast between the paler rice and darker orchid mix or I could be on to something but let’s find out lol.

So my tub is pinning I’ve switched to fruiting conditions according to me roommate's advise.

Just removed the lid closed the blue latches down and replaced the lid.

I noticed that one of the smaller walls of the tub was dryer than the others. I noticed a pin located near that side had a crack down its stem so I misted very very lightly from like 5 feet above.

Also just now while I’m making this post the wall has became so dry I can see clearly into the tub





Compared to other side





What I can say is that the cake was covered with needle tip size beeds of water.


Also I’m now noticing a lot of the pins are growing sideways

Sorry the photos got all out of order with text

Current tek is to initiate fruiting conditions as soon as you set up your tub.

Regardless, congrats on getting some fruits!
