this will be the 3rd time ive had to state this today.                               

condensation is not an indication of humidity. condensation happens because of a temperature differential, between the inside and outside of your fc. moisture will condense out of the air on the colder surfaces of your fruiting chambers walls.                     

if you have no condensation. it just means the temp inside and outside your fc is pretty much equal.

No you cant have too much humidity.

I agree






i guess i didnt think about it, but they did have pretty skiiny stems..

i took pics of the bubbler im using, this is on 24 hrs / day, and i have holes near the bottom of the FC so it hovers around 95% rh and i think the FAE should be about as good as it gets.

the bubbler should be pumping in fresh air constantly, with posiitive air pressure? maybe? i dont fan by hand though.. i just kinda leave it be, and open about 4 times a day to peek
Would this plump em up if i were to fan by hand??

How the fcuk does a bubbler provide fae? its a myth! They do not work, everyone who does not believe it look at his pictures and you have it answered, where is RR when you need him aaarggghhh noobs, if you searched you would know that a bubbler does fuck all and is not a alternative.

It is nowhere as good as it can get fan it

Mexi's tend to be prolific but kinda scrawny.  But exchanging the built up Co2 can't hurt.  Pumping air in without taking the old air out isn't enough most of the times.  just fan once a day.  That should help things out without over doing it.

the first flush weighed out to 29g dry. not bad. really skiiny stems, so about 20 is caps :thumbup:
i will post the pics when i find my damn card reader.


after i cleared the rest of the first flush, i dunked the whole substrate, after removing the loose casing, left under slow running water for about 2 hours, drained, and reapplyed the casing. and put back into the FC conditions

I will be sure to fan by hand a couple times a day this time to see if it helps.

3 times a hour is a good amount for fanning, but do what ever you want.

So..... Psilocybe cubensis Growth Parameters

Mycelial Types: Rhizomorphic to linear; whitish in overall color but often bruising bluish where injured.
Standard Spawn Medium: Rye grain. See Chapter III.
Fruiting Substrate: Rye grain; wheat straw; leached horse or cow manure and/or horse manure/straw compost balanced to a 71-74% moisture content.
Method of Preparation: See Chapters III, V, and VI. Pasteurization achieved through exposure to live steam for 2 hours at 140°F / 60°C. throughout the substrate. Straw or compost should be filled to a depth of 6-12 inches. Straw should be spawned at a rate of 2 cups/sq. ft.

Spawn Run:
Relative Humidity: 90%.
Substrate Temperature: 84 - 86°F / 28.8 - 30°C. Thermal death limits have been established at 106°F / 41.1°C.
Duration: 10-14 days.
CO2: 5000 - 10,000 ppm.
Fresh Air Exchanges: 0 per hour.

Type of Casing: After fully run, cover with the standard casing whose preparations described in Chapter VIII. Layer to a depth of 1-2 inches. The casing should be balanced to an initial pH of 6.8 - 7.2.

Relative Humidity: 90 %.
Substrate Temperature: 84 - 86°F / 28.8 - 30°C.

Air Temperature: 74 - 78°F / 23.3 - 25.5°C.
Duration: 6-10 days.
CO2: less than 5000 ppm.
Fresh Air Exchanges: 1 -3 per hour.(For practical purposes, fanning a terrarium 2-3 times a day is sufficient) (practical does not mean the best)

Flushing Pattern: Every 5-8 days.
Harvest Stage: When the cap becomes convex and soon after the partial veil ruptures.
Light: Indirect natural or same as above.

I've read the book.  at least the parts that were useful in the home cultivation field and 72 times a day is not practical for the home cultivator which is what we're talking about here.  hence the thought of hiring someone.  Now the question: Do you fan 72 times a day just because the TMC says so?

No lol but at least 25 times for sure.....but I also use a fan now on a timer (thanks to tripsis).......I'm building two greenhouses that are self sufficient in RH and FAE so I wont even be doing that anymore, just adding trays and harvesting :wink: 

I know its not practical but honestly the fruit will thank you in the end.

after you have done 50 grows or so you will see what I mean
