First shroom grow w/ pics, will this work?
    #5276430 - 02/08/06 07:26 AM (17 years, 11 months ago)

OK i think i have all the supplies to get ready to do this. what i need to know is if i have the right supplies and if it will all work together. so i have some perlite for the bottom of the casing and some substrate that really never fully colonized for some reason (no idea). so Ive got a bag of that, sterile which ill post a pic of, and some potting soil for the top? its "specially formulated to encourage blooming". i also have a 40 watt florescent and a timer to come on for one hour every day. is that right? im not sure this. will work. anyways all supplies have been chillin for about 3 months and i want to see if ill get anything out of this. heres the pic of the "cake"

Going on color alone ( mycelium should be white , not brown) , and the fact you said it didn't fully colonize , and that its been sitting around for 3 months , It doesn't look good . Is that bag air tight ?

WELL.. there is a lot you have wrong here.

PERLITE ~ used as a water retainer for humdification. this should be nowhere near the inside of your casing. you place perlite under the pan or cakes to wick moisture into the air and creat humidity.

POTTING SOIL ~ is not what everyone uses. most of us use coco coir or vermiculite because it containes no nutrients and hold water like a pro. holding water is one of the main purposes of a casing.

LIGHT ~ a regular 12/12 light cycle is what most of us use. although test have proven that cubensis mushrooms will fruit with only a milisecond of light per day.

SPAWN~ If you never got this cake to fully colonize in the first place what makes you think it will work now??? Young mycellium is better to use than older weaker mycellium. 3 months is pretty aged, most cakes or spawn are less than 1 month old.

tweek you methods a little and try AGAIN.

I'd have to agree with everyone else, that substrate doesnt look colonized at all it looks like a brown mess

well ive heard that they can survive for months in a dark place (which is were theyve been. maybe ill have a shroom. its sterile with a breather thing.


also how about grinding up timothy hay and mixing it with the soil. would that work or not for retaining moisture?

if your lucky enough to get a mushrooms from that...(which BTW i guess your talking about invitro), it would be the last thing you'd want to eat! In fact...it could be the last thing you ever eat.

Take my advise my friend...always good trust me.
Gid rid of it, and start a second go round for your own safty, and who ever resides in the same house.

Is this from a kit?

our FAQ section should become your best friend. Here, we'll look at some things you did wrong and need to read about.

1.) Your substrate needs to be fully colonized to spawn or case
2.) Perlite is for humidity uses, it has no purpose in a casing
3.) Listen to the other memembers (most of the time) their advice should be invaluable to you since many of us have been through this already.

You just need to spend an hr or so a day for about a week just reading. Hit up our faq section, in there you find numerous resources and teks to get you on your way. Good luck man, if i were you, id just toss that tray and focus on the next project.

Well, If I had taken it that far, I would probably let it sit around to see what it did. But keep in mind that since your spawn wasn't colonized (it looked mostly not colonized) contams are likely. I'd chuck it at the first signs of comtamination.

Out of curiosity, you said this was a kit?

Also, it'd be good to determine why your spawn didn't colonize. What were the incubation temps? What did you keep it in?

ok i thought this was the way to do it. first perilite on the bottom, that crap was spread out over the wetted perilite and then i put a 50/50 soil and perlite on top. am i way off. i have read the faq but that was probably 6 months ago, and ive forgotten most of it but is there anything else i can do to make it work. ive got humitity and temp covered so we will just have to see.

thats the thing the temps were probably too cold for it too colonize. how worm should it be right now in that pan..?

In all honesty man i dont think there's anything anyone can say to you to save this grow.

You mixed up perlite with vermiciulite. It's a common mistake, but perlite doesnt retain moisture that well which is what verms main job is.

Also since you used uncolonized substrate you're going to need for it to colonize in the tray now before it can fruit. Since you removed it from its sterile enviornment, and it hasnt really grown much in 3 months, id bet that you wont see anything but trich grow on your casings.

Just start over man, it will be a lot easier and less time consuming then trying to save that casing.

READ THIS ~ http://www.shroomery.org/index.php/par/23805
AND THIS ~ http://www.shroomery.org/index.php/par/7971

~mushrooms need specific temps hopefully this will help in the future~
incubation of jars
82-86 degrees farenheit
humidity ~ is provided by the moisture in the jar/bag

spawn run
temp 82-86 degrees farenheit
humidity @ 90-100

fruiting
temp 74-78 degrees farenheit
humidity around 91%

Not to be rude, but the longer you keep that thing around, the more likely you will infect your own house with trich or worse.

if your going to do this you have to wait for colonization first.about 50% i would say, so wait a week and then light and fresh air exchange.

Please for my sanity if anything looks like it's molding please throw it out asap. we had a good dude up here a while back and he got sick with mycotoxicosis from breathing in mold. not to mention your house can so easily start breeding mold without your knowledge, so just be safe.

These naysayers have experience. These naysayers know that will not work. That looks like a big bag of guts! It's filled with all sorts of shit you don't want to be f$cking with! You should not have even opened that in your house! Now, if you somehow miraculously grew a mushroom off that, it could be suicidal to eat it!! You won't be impressing anyone, here or showing anyone up if you even did get a mushroom outta that.
It's all good advice here for your safety! Trash it man... GL

Well those guts are actually sterile grain thats never been open, only aired out with the breath pad thing they had on it.

Well got a pic of something. what do you guys think? its as close as I could get.

Dude, you need to fucking start LISTENING to people here!

Just because you bought it "sterile" doen't mean that it remained sterile after being injected with spore solution and then having sat around for 3 months with rotting mycelium in it! And if your sterile techniques are anything like your listening skills then I'd bet the $20 you spent on that garbage that you contam'd it.

To properly grow mushrooms you're gonna have to put in a little more than $20 anyways. If that's all you want to spend then maybe you should stick to buying shrooms from DrugDealer-Joe in your hometown.

take ALL of our advise and TOSS THAT! If the bag of brown crap that you cased wasn't already filled with mold, then I can still guarantee that your casing will mold! And like someone else said, if you do get a mushroom off of that it would probably be fucking toxic...

Spend a little time reading the FAQ and the grow guides, EDUCATE yourself on the dangers of mold, and then try a new project. I suggest the PF tek for you.

ok then the next time i go for it, when inoculating the sterile bag with the sterile needle, what did i do wrong. i was very clean, it was a while ago and i just put it in my closet (darkness) and nothing. anyone want to take some guesses. it was pretty warm during that time so it should have flourished? so.. will this work again with a bag like that (cause i dont have any of the supplies to make teks.

Hey man if you get sick from that thing...I'm gonna call it a thing because i thought i might have seen a nose and some eyes in that pic of yours, then you better not go crying to someone and tell them "wa wa wa The people at the shroomery told me to do this... and i got sick... and now I'm dying" You need to listen to these people they know they've all been there. I might be new to the whole mycology thing myself but ill tell you I'm on this site at least 2hrs every night for the last 3 mos. going through every post and tek I can find. The only way your gonna get better is to listen and learn from the people who have been doing this for a very long time.
and ill even give you 3 reasons why you need to listen to these people.
OK here are some direct quotes from your first post
1) " what i need to know is if i have the right supplies and if it will all work together."
2) "so i have some perlite for the bottom of the casing and some substrate that really never fully colonized for some reason (no idea)."
3) "is that right? I'm not sure this."

Those are three very good reasons why you should listen. No one is trying to steer you in the wrong direction or encourage you to fail they all wanna help you and see that you do it the right way.

All in all just be safe man and think about what you might be doing to yourself and the rest of your household.

Happy Shrooming

no one here thinks theres even the slightest chance that your grow will succeed with what you have, and the majority of people here have ALOT of experience with groing shrooms, and know what will and won't work. Growing shrooms is a lot more complicated than growing a cannabis plant. Also, no matter how sterile you think you may have been, theres always a chance things will still get contaminated and ruined. You need to accept that when trying to grow these, sometimes you will mess it up simply because its by no means an easy thing to do.

good luck

I bet you could grow a better cannabis plant than me, and if I was asking you for advice on that then I would probably listen. And if I asked you for advice and then didn't listen to what you told me you'd probably call me a retard too.


As for what went wrong...? It's hard to tell without more info. Did that bag have white myc growth at some point in time? If so then that means it stalled for some reason. Maybe the temps were too cold/hot, maybe there wasn't enough moisture in the bag. Also, you didn't make it yourself, so you don't know if the company you bought it from fucked it up or something.

After 3 months you should expect stalled myc to die. It CAN live for months in cool temps if the conditions are right, but that doesn't mean it WILL. And if it stalled then the conditions probably weren't very good.

take some of that bad ass weed you grow, sell a 1/2 or a oz,  and get the PROPER supplies..    20 bucks in this hobby barely buys a syringe of spores,  so you not out much TOSSING this grow.

Sad thing is, you have been told....  at a time you will either give up, or listen and try to grow the CORRECT way..  which will be fucked because for months you have been breading all sorts of nasties in your place....  and still are.  it will take you weeks if not months to make a place sterile enough to even consider another grow .

well this is just in the name of science. whats the bother of just seeing what happens. if all kinds of shit grows on that ill pitch it quick but i have a pic below and i want some of you experts to tell me if that is mold, or might i have shroomage, its spreading every night and poping up in new places too. all white with this little fuzz. temps are at 75 and no light yet. should i spray water to keep it moist.
Edit: i can even get a closer shot of the close up..
