reishi problem
    #5807182 - 06/30/06 04:05 PM (17 years, 6 months ago)

I've got several mycobags of reishi colonized oak sawdust/woodchips.

Originally planned on fruiting from the bag, but there was no action for a month after colonization.

So I drilled holes near the bottom of a tub, stuffed them with polyfil - cut tops of mycobags off and sat them in the tub - wrapped lid to tub with saran wrap.

So... I have the CO2 lowered, but the humidity is still at 99, I'm thinking this is the problem. But, If I hadn't used the saran wrap I would be worried that they would dry out too quickly.

Is there a max humidity in which reishi will grow? Other than that, any advice on my situation would be appreciated.

Are you trying to grow antlers or just get them to fruit?

Try lowering the CO2, keep the humidity high. Good luck.

They fruit well right from the bag. Just cut a 1 cm hole or two in the side of the bag near the middle of the substrate. What you did should work ok, just keep air exchange high. Staler air tends to produce antlers, moving and humid air favors conks.
