PR problems
    #7397251 - 09/11/07 04:43 PM (16 years, 4 months ago)

Ok for the record I have done several bulk grows with probably 8-10 different strains and have always had phenomenal results. I tried to give PR's a run this time and so far have been dissapointed with the results.

For substrate I used a mixture of chopped straw and worm castings and used 6 quarts of spawn on it. It tore right through and colonized everything in like 4 days, then I cased with straight verm. I know about the potential overlay problem with PR so I kept a close eye on things and patch cased very carefully.

I've been keeping the temp around 74-75 degrees have been fanning 5/6 times a day, humidity is fine, and have been givin it 12 on 12 off with fluoro light.

Its been about 12 days and I'm getting SOME pins but not anything close to like I usually do, they are very sporadic and so far they don't seem to be the thick meaty shrooms I've always gotten with 6-8" of substrate. Anyway I know PR's can be kinda finiky so I was just wondering if RR or any of those other PR pros had any suggestions for me, does the temp need bumped up at all or anything? I'm just really confused and not sure what (if anything) I'm doing wrong... I guess it could just be a bad substrain but we'll see.

It depends , My Pr are great fruiters and produced great flushes. I suppose its a question of genetics . Try different spores next time.
