first time cultivation questions
    #7540300 - 10/20/07 06:14 PM (16 years, 5 months ago)

This is my first time try to grow shrooms. My brother just had a successful first cultivation and I enjoyed the fruits "pun intended" of his labor very much. I seemed fairly simple so i'm giving it a go. I have a couple of questions that he has not been able to answer for me so i'm hoping someone here can help. The humidity in my FC is at 94%. Is that good for cakes? I have tried several different things to get the humidity up but it won't budge. I used the dunk and roll technique that I saw on the pf tek videos. I put my first 5 or 6 cakes in 6 days ago. How long before i start to see pins? If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.

anywhere from 90 updward is fine, your pretty much almost ideal for humidity but i wouldnt worry about a small 1%, 95%-99% is optimal, but above 90 will be just fine


Pinning can ocour anytime between 3-4 days to a few weeks, depending on conditions, if u gave your jars extray incubation days after apearing fulling colinised (usually 5 days) then i would be expecting to see pins soon.

Keep of the FAE and give plenty of light each day, 12/12 cycle

Misting after each FAE can help maintain humidity, once pins form you can stop misting.

Cool! Thanks. I had a feeling that i'm just being impatient. I can't wait to eat the mushrooms I grew with my own two hands. I have 9, 1/2 pint B cakes and 9 Ban Hua Thanon cakes. With adequate conditions what kind of yield should I see?
