what the problem is?
    #474738 - 11/30/01 11:55 AM (21 years, 9 months ago)

this is my second time time producing the magical shroom, and all has seemed to be going well up until now. i used the mmgg (vermiculite) to produce about 9 jars of mycelium. when i considered the cakes to be fully colonized i birthed them and put them into a terrarium. i have been spraying 4-5 times daily, but only one of the cakes has started to produce actual shrooms. the others are covered white but have only produced tiny white cone shaped things(about 1/8th inch tall) that look like they might be little shrooms. the problem is that they have been in the terrarium for about 3 weeks now. one of the cakes, (which looks just like the others: covered in white, no contamination, has not even started to make the little white cone things.) another one of the cakes is covered in super-fluffy white stuff with wierd growths all over it that seem to have tiny pores in them. last time i grew i dont remember anything like this. can anyone help me out?

nah im just misting, they are sitting on a wire screen on the bottom of the terrarium. why do you suggest that i stop misting? do you think that i have to much humidity? too little? what type of humidification systems do you suggest? i am a poor fellow, with not much room to work with.
thanks

bag of perlite is like 3 to 5 dollars. misting is just dropping water on your cakes = not too good. try to keep the temp around 70-75 also and theyll grow if you keep humidity high and constant. i cant stress it enough; perlite will work.
