wheres the shrooms?
    #7541283 - 10/21/07 12:30 AM (16 years, 3 months ago)

goodmorning,

i have three cakes which look just about perfect
and they've been in a fruiting chamber (a plastic box)
at 21°C to 23°C at a humidity of 99% - 100% laying on their
jar caps on humidified perlite.

i vent the box 3 times a day and it has a small window on
the top so it gets some light.

now, it's been more than 2 weeks and what i've got is 1
perfectly formed shroom and thats it. i mean this shroom
healthy, but apart from that i don't even have pins or aborts
of any kind.

any ideas?

The cake being dry is a possibility. Did you dunk n roll? You could try after the first uni-mushroom flush to dunk it.

Huuuuurrrrrr!

no i didn't dunk and roll coz when i took the cakes out of the jars they looked pretty hydrated and i didn't wanna risk drowning them or something.

also, because of the high humidity i'm getting with the perlite i figured that misting would be overkill.. but i now get the feeling that might be the problem..

will post pics briefly.

cheers.

Go ahead and dunk n roll, it may just give it what it needs to pin.

You should always dunk before birthing, even if your cakes look ok. Its not going to do them anyharm. After colinising they have used alot of water.

I had a few cakes that i dunked a 2nd time before they pinnned.

You will want to Fan your FC much more than that, i do it alot, about every hour when im in. Gets fanned out atleast 4 times between getting out and going to work, and same when get home from work.

Maybe try putting a fluerescent bulb above the chamber too.

dunking and rolling now will just set them back another 5 days to recolonize the roll.

either way, it simply takes time,

sometimes it takes 3 days to pin sometimes it takes 20 days.
