quick casing question

#537399 - 01/31/02 11:44 PM (23 years, 5 months ago)

hi to all.

i have a tray of amazonian cubensis that is showing very little growth, except for the mycelial fuzz growing on the baby shrooms that have poked up through the casing layer (shrooms were already present, tho tiny, when i birthed the jars)...
its been six days since i sliced the cakes in half, lined the bed of 50/50+ in the tray, and crumbled some to fill in the gaps... i let the tray sit in the aquarium for 24 hours before casing.. then it was about a half inch, but ever so lightly packed down.. since, its been at 75F and 85% hum.

what should i be expecting here? the babies are fuzzy and dont seem to be growing much... i would really appreciate any advice.

thanks, ..iago

well first off. That casing should be stored in the low to mid 80's right now. Thie first step of the casing tek involves regrowth of new mycelium into thw top casing layer.
When the top layer gets pretty well covered with mycelium xoming up then you can think about a 10 degree temp drop to 75 degrees and then watching for some shroom growth.
