Thin pins that don't grow
    #6763312 - 04/08/07 11:04 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

I've posted a few times about our cakes which won't produce full sized fruits, and I shall do so again.

Basically we have 9 PF cakes in a fruiting chamber, now with about 3" of (damp, I know) perlite for humidification in a clear plastic tub. Some of them have had great pinsets, but for some reason all the pins grow to about 2/3" or so and then stop. A lot of them haven't even turned dark on the caps or anything, they just refuse to grow. I've noticed that in time lapses of correctly growing cubensis, they grow width-wise quite a bit before growing vertically, but ours don't do that. They're all just the thin kind of pins, and actually most of them are so close together that I don't see how they would be able to expand to the proper width to continue growing. We've been trying everything to try and get them to grow, but it's just not happening and we can't figure it out. The hydrometer we have, although it isn't perfect, always reads like 100% so I don't really think humidity is the issue, and there aren't any contams. We fan it plenty, so don't tell me "needs FAE! Duh!" Does anyone know why pins would initiate and grow to a certain height and then just stop?

off the top of my inexperienced myc. head...my best guess is either genetics or contamination from within...hopefully someone can correct me or give you the answers which you seek...:rocket:

Water content of the cake. You need to dunk 24 hours before first flush, and again between flushes.
