My Mini Casing (with mycoporn)***UPDATED***

Well, I know I'm a noob, and I probably shouldn't experiment this much, but its how you learn. I had a fully colonized brf cake(GT strain), and I cut some of the bottom off, broke it up, and cased it in a jar-lid. I mainly did this just to make sure my Martha was set up perfect for my larger casings. Anyways, a week later, and here it is. Now, I'm wondering, are these fruits going to be small, concidering the casing size? Do you think I'll get enough out of them to trip? Edit: that pic is from yesterday. 2 days ago there were 8 pins, yesterday about 16, and today there are 32 pins, all on that little sucker.

Enough to trip? If you're a noob you should feel lucky you even got pins... worry about the growing process first and the fun later...

you might get one trip off it, and there going to be small for sure, but hell its worth it if you were just messing around anyway, also id eat them fresh, little ones to me just suck dried, they shrink so much they dont even seem worth taking, of course they are but i just perfer them wet when so small. good luck with the rest of your casings and have fun with those little shrooms.

Im gonna make mini casings out of 18 oz. Solo cups and some zip-lock brand mini-tupperware I have. Then just put a plastic bag over it and spray the plastic surfaces on the inside (Bag/tup/cup) and it will generate its own humidity and u only have to exchange air when u pick them. There's a tek on it.

***Update****
well, they grew, I harvested, I ate. They were small, but I ate them all fresh. Pretty damn good trip, concidering I didnt think i'de get much off of them. I was defenitly happy with the outcome.
I just wish my other 2 casings will hurry the fuck up. I dont know why they are taking so long.

I've tried this method once but I wasn't happy with the lack of air exchange so I added to it a bit. For lack of a digital camera, I'll try to illustrate this to you with a little help from MS Paint.
Basically it simply involves inserting 2 straws into either side of your plastic bag top and securing them with a small amount of duct tape. (as illustrated below)
This way, you can press the straws inward on the bag and force out the CO2 that builds upside. (as shown below)
Then in the same manner, you can pull the straws away from each other forcing fresh air back into your mini-chamber. (as shown below)
*note: you may need to cover the end of one of the straws and use it as a 'choke' to create enough suction to fill the back again. It takes a little practice but it's not hard*
Once you have finished 'fanning' your chamber just put a little piece of tape over the hole at the end of each straw. The next time I wanted to circulate the aire I just used scissors to snip off the end of the straw, then added another piece of tape after I was finished. Worked well for me so I thought I'd share it with anyone who might want to try it.

As you saw, you would get plenty to trip off of. gt is very strong and one of the strongest bluing shrooms. They pic up like crazy as you found out and will abort 95% but the ones that live will be huge. Save all, keep the aborts. they are still good to eat.
-------------------- Stop experimenting half way through your first grow. Grow it to maturity, watch it, learn from it. Do this a few times then experiment with different ideas and figure out what works best for you.
