Why growing sideways?
    #5483105 - 04/05/06 02:15 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

My cat recently dunked/cold shocked her cakes and rolled them in verm. but she's still having some problems, and can't figure out the cause.  Since dunking about three pins have shown up, one of which has grown into a nice looking little shroomie that is already 4 or 5 inches long (My cat was very excited  :grin:)

The problem is that this one shroom is growing practically straight out from the side of the cake, it's not curving upward at all.  If it gets much bigger it will practically be laying in the perlite.  What might be causing it to grow like this, and might it have anything to do with why they aren't getting very many pins nearly a week and a half after the dunk?

probably your light source is brighter on the side?
maybe its staying close to the perlite where the RH is higher?

as long as your cat get's its cat nip you shouldn't be worried :wink:

so suppose my cat puts a big bright light source directly above the cakes? would the mushrooms grow more upright?

umm... not neccerely... perlite reflects light but generally the light source should come from above if you want'em growing upwards...
you could also try to pain the sides of the fruiting chamber black

either way it doesn't really matter as long as you're getting healthy growth... esthetics are for pussies :tongue:

enjoy!
