is this ok to start fruiting?
    #7993522 - 02/07/08 07:48 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

ok this image is terrible quality cuz i had to take it with my phone (.3 megapixel lol) but this is a colombian strain that colonized pretty much 100% about 2-3 days ago but there is still little dots where i can see vermiculite through the mycelium that the mycelium just will not cover and ive let it stit for about 3 days now and it still hasnt taken over it so i just stuck it in the FC by itself for now but do u think this will be ok?

probably not. but we'll see. looks to be about 85% colonized and the assuming the center of your cake is colonized.

theres also a reason PF tek is done with 1/2 pint jars, not pints.

Hmm it definitely doesnt look like a 1/2 pint jar to me, but look to your left, look at my current mood setting, that could explain it

still it isnt 100% colonized, more than likely it will get contaminated. How long did you allow it to colonize for?

it has been colonizing for about 3 weeks at 84F....it had been like 2 and a half to 3 weeks somewhere around there and then it looked like that so i waited 3 more days and saw no change...my other 3 colombian strains look like that too, i have alcabenzi strain that started the day before the colombian that are full solid white on the outside but not quite fully colonized yet

Its clearly not 100% colonized. Doesnt even look close, once the outside of the cake is fully colonized, it generally needs another 3-4 days to allow the inside of the cake to colonize as well.

And the still doesnt look like a 1/2 pint to me

no, that would be a pint jar and that explains why your cake isnt fully colonized.

oh and sorry to doubt you since this is my first *hopefully* successful grow attempt but i asked the people at the store if they had "HALF PINT CANNING JARS" and they showed me theese and i figured they were about exactly half the size of a pint of beer i was sure this had to be a pint jar
