3rd time not a charm.

Well this is flush 3 (if you could realy call them flushs) and it looks like another bunch of aborts. Yeah, I know you can eat em and all that but last time all I got was 1 fucking gram. I have a uncontaminated rye cake sitting on a lid in a aquarium with perlite. Humidity: high 90's, Temperature: steady 75f, plenty of air flow ( from high power aquarium pump and 2 bottom vent holes), plenty of light. What the hell else is there? Are there some cakes that are just permanently fucked up? All I have gotten is aborts. 1 normall mushroom grew out of my perlite (about the size of a matchstick). Shit I got shrooms coming out of perlite and I cant get one normal one out of this damn cake. Well if you have any more of a clue than I do as to what could be wrong let me know. If not well I guess this is just venting.

ummmmm... i've never worked with ecuadores before but... what if you take some mycelium from which grew the regular shrooms (in perlite, right?), make some nice dense syringes and innoculate more substrate? you got nothing to lose. it worked for my wookie friend once but he's case was worst - the cakes wouldnt even fruit. except for a little rhizomorphic growth on the wet papertowel under it... another thing you should have in mind is that cakes just are not the biggest yielding... maybe you'll wanna consider casing your mycelium...

I might as well dunk em It couldnt hurt. I already did once but I had to put em in cold storage shortly after as nots were forming. I had already lost 2 casings to contams and I didnt want to risk this one. Ive been doing a lot of grain to grain transfers so I will have plenty of colonized jars in a while. Ive been doing this since september I think, so I dont want to wait even longer for these jars to take. As for that one little shroom when I picked it I couldnt even find the peice of grain it grew from it must have been just a tiny little peice that fell under the perlite. It was so small I think Im better off with the grain to grain. Ive got a nice pressure cooker and a glovebox so I think most of them will avoid contams. I got enough aborts to trip off of tomorrow so I shouldnt complain, Im better off that some people.

You could try cold shocking,(A little late i know) but other than that you could always dunk. Equadors should'nt require either methods though its "supposed" to be a easy fruting strain. you can also crush a calcium pill and mix it with the casing this alows bigger fuller mushy growth.
