Slow Spawn colonization
    #8003060 - 02/09/08 10:58 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

I'm experiencing very low spawn rate with one of my 6inch 17inch 25inch tubs. The substrate too spawn ratio was 4gallons of sub to 3/4 gallon spawn. There is no smell, except for that good mush smell. The top seems to be totally colonized except some parts are more white than others. It's def over 90% colonized and may be 100 except for those 6-7 one inch circles which seem to be less white. It was spawned about 1 week 1/2 ago. Any one got any ideas.

I usually recommend a 1:3 ratio, and you used nearly 1:5, so it sounds like it's right on track and not slow at all.
