It's been a while since I've grown these. I've got a tub going now that's got a ton of knots. What is everyone using for casing? I believe coir worked the last time I grew these?



Verm works nicely, peat seems a tiny bit better but I've never tried casing these with coir so I can't speak for that but I know some people have amazing results even without a casing.

But yeah I and many others use verm straight outta the bag with great results:muppet:

I got them to fruit but barely... So this is what I've got - a random mess:lol: another one is opening the cap by now though and imma be honest, that's the best cluster I've had:uhoh: the dark ones are ready for harvest but the rest there needs plenty of time still:lol:



And I'm not certain about xalpa... I just remember the name being thrown around but I could be wrong.





Interesting how different growers are seeing different forms of tres soles. Two had mentioned caps not opening. Must be environmental?



My caps have all flattened out (I do like the bell caps too before they flatten). Mss all fruits similar so far, a few screwy stipes but otherwise little variation.




I tried to pop this cake out to help that fruit but no luck. Probably fruit will get nasty. Idk I'm just going to let her be. I'd be more concerned with this jar if I didn't have a successful jar also fruiting!



:flowers:

I did a 50/50 on mine for the first flush but recased with coarse verm straight from the bag, and pins set up just fine on that.

In my observations, (hvc anyway, and tried with zap tex) semp seem to love the little microzones made by the verms chunks.

So coarse verm allows for bigger "nooks and crannies"/ tucked in spots- these form primordia like crazy.

For zap Texolo, and other semp going forward, I tried putting a light but compressed layer of finer verm to cover any exposed coir, and then put some coarse on top. Pretty good.

A sentinel fruit, checking out the landscape before the others arrive. It’s about 15 cm. There’s some green that sprung up so quickly, it must have been in the spawn. I’m going to watch it since it’s pinning so generously.

The pins busted out before I hand a chance to case it. There’s some coir pseudo casing that I thought would colonize. I have three other trays not yet fruiting. I cased them  before full colonization.

The spawn was inoculated Nov 2025. I was going for myceliated grain but I got bored looking at the jars. The bulk is pure coir.

Yes it looked dry at photo time. I’ve upped the spray game. It’s in a water tub.

They are looking a little wispy to me. Do you have any pics of your grain jars? I mean you did make it 2.5 months with only 1 tub getting the green so I can't see it being too nasty.
I had one culture took 3 months to put out a super small flush of about 7 shrooms, then it popped a good flush every month for the next 7 months. Maybe you got the same one and have another 2-3 weeks to wait. Do you see any solid looking bumps, like a bigger knot anywhere on the surface? Is your surface drying to where you need to mist? Maybe more FAE?

Anyone try a beef punishment on semps before?



No pics of the grain jars unfortunately, but i didnt detect anything out of the ordinary.

What temperature are they sitting at?



I don’t have an exact measurement, but it should be between 65-70f.



So the remaining tubs never progressed past this point, and they all died the green death. I'm starting to think the genetics were bunk, but I'm trying again with a new culture. Either way, they're slooowwww. Definitely not of the variety that some people have found that progress at a decent pace.
