I've been posting some pics over the last couple of days of some pins on my cakes. I've got five cakes (all B+) in my shotgun FC right now. Some of these pins are really fat. Almost look like little baby vienna sausages. At first I was a little concerned when the first fatty popped out, thinking it might use more of the cake up. But then, the rest that started popping out where almost just as big if not bigger. So, hopefully this means I'm gonna have some good mushrooms! And hopefully several flushes. This morning I tried to count the pins and three of the five cakes had at least 40 pins (1 had 50), another had over 30, and the last one had about 25. I'm not sure if this is really that good. I've seen some that looked a whole lot better than mine. Oh well, I am pleased nonetheless! Let me know what you think.....

Thanks bro..i'm so excited! Being a newb and waiting on your jars to start colonizing, then hoping you're gonna get some pins, and then when it all starts to fall into place...it's a good feeling. Gonna be an even better feeling this weekend!!!

damn thats a good pin set. How long did it take for them to pin??
I had 1 cake in my FC that didnt seem to be doing anything, so i have taken it out and dunked it, along with 2 other cakes that are ready.
Back into the fruiting chamber 2morrow.
And just as a precaution, im gonna sterilise my perlite in the oven 2day and leave it a day in the fc too get the humidity up.

Veda...I put the cakes in my FC on Sun 9/16. The first pins started forming the following Saturday on 9/22. All cakes stayed in the jars for the full week after full colonization. I was't getting enough FAE for the first couple of days in the FC and that kinda slowed them down. Was getting puffy balls of mycelium. Started fanning more and then they took off. I took some more pics this morning and will put them up in a bit! I hope my casings that i've got going do as well as my first cakes have!!!

Thats some pretty cakes you got there!!!
very fat asses! very nice!
I have a B+ syringe I may make liquid cultures from, and grow on horsemanure in the same fashion i've done both oak ridge, and F+
Keep up the good work man!
excellent first grow!
you going to be interested in going to bulk sooN? or is this enough to suit you?
If you go bulk, you can continue using brf pftek cakes as your spawn medium, just go buy a 6 dollar cheese grater, grate the pftek cake, then mix into manure... that simple, never be intimidated by bulk growing, unless you just don't need that kind of weight.
