first grow
    #5303932 - 02/15/06 05:43 PM (17 years, 11 months ago)

hello all, i started my grow on jan/30  inoculated 4 jars with b+ strain. since then all has been well. today is feb 15. cakes look good so far and are on perlite now for about 6 days. still no pins though.
i am noticing lumps of mycelia forming now, but not sure if this is primordia or just vegitative growth. i wasn't sure so i lowered the temp to 76f and about 90% rh.  and placed in flourecent light.

i am wondering if everything sounds good up to this point and if so, how much longer till pins pop up?


on another note, i took some advice from deseree and made a c/poo and straw compost, and crumbled one of my cakes and layered it in back on the 9th of feb.  it is catching like wild fire in the terrarrium. the mycelia is spread completely thru the compost and is starting to cover the surface now.
my question is should i apply some casing or just leave it be?

the compost itself is nice and moist and there is plenty of humidity in the terrarium. the temp is staying at about 74f without any supplimental heat.

when do you guys predict pins on this?

i will keep all of you updated as to my prgress.

as i said this is my 1st grow and i am just worried about doing everything alright.
any comments are always welcome and appreciated.
thanx in advance

lost

I say 5 more days till you see pins on your cake. lol, sounds good to me. Try to keep the humidity at least 90% for the cakes. At least.

If you can, mist the walls or something when you fan to bring the humidity up more. 95-98% would be ideal.
