1st grow ! Killer MAN !

Walmart has a timer (one on the left) ... super cheap ... $7.00, that goes down to 15 minute increments ...... might work well for your ultrasonic ........ try 15 minutes on 1 1/2 hours off .....
and / or use your air supply to help 'dry out' the chamber.
Your 1st grow looks great.

Thanks Uncle Rico. I have a few timers just like that, the light is hooked up to one 12 / 12... I just didn't know that running the ultra sonic 24/7 would be bad for them. Maybe I should put it on a timer.

if you don't mind me asking, how long did it take your bulk to fully colonize from the time of spawning? i have had mine for a week or so now and it is growing a very web like growth still(hasn't started rhizo yet). i am also using brazilians and i spawned to straight coir. did your bulk also start with very light growth and then started getting really rhizomorphic ?
(pardon my English i am in a rush)
cheers,

well from the time I put my grain in with the H poo N Coir it took about a week to fully colonize. The reason I did it the way I did was because I wanted to colonize my bulk in my incubator @ 85F. So yea I couldn't do that with it in a mono w/ out the trays. Also It went straight to BIG rizo, maybe because of the temps or what ever. Sorry if I'm rambling but I tested just 1 of them and they are way to strong...

Yea pretty much, there were just a few spots where you could see tiny parts of poo n coir. For the most part it was totally white... If you look @ the very first pic on this thread It looked like that just ALL white...

Thanks lostinautumn7 You've been great, I will for sure be posting my next journey into this killer hobby...
heres a few pics of the other tray starting to grow a little, and pics of the first tray... What should I do about the spots that I had picked from? Theres like big holes and you can see the substrate, is this bad?

Nothing to worry about. Most people patch it with some extra sterilized/pasteurized casing mix that they keep around, just to keep it even. That actually works really nice, but I am kind of lazy sometimes so I just leave the little craters. It shouldn't hurt anything that bad.....it may mean one or two less mushrooms, but if you do leave it its nothing to stress over IMO.
