They are starting to pin now and I took the lid off the Fc for about 30 min and my throat sure became irritated..Maybe Im just sensitive to them.I sure wished i could move them outside.Its still 32f at night and around 43f in the day.
Ill take some pics when the pins get a little bigger:thumbup:

They'll be fine outside.  If it's going to be below freezing, put them right against the house and/or cover with a tarp.  32F at night and 40's during the day is better than indoors where it's hot.  Oysters in room temperature develop paper thin caps and are pretty worthless for eating.

Give lots of air exchange, bright light, and cool temps for best results.

Thanks RR.Its now outside.If you have time I have one more question.
i have a PmP with hydroton.Which I know you don't recommend,When you say give plenty of air exchanges does that mean fanning 4 to 6 times a day or should I just leave the lid off which You said can be done in the BRF tek video or should I leave the lid cracked a little?With the lid off the humidity is only 52%.
I do have 2 1/4 inch holes in the lid.
I have some grains going now.The next oyster thing Im doing is grain to straw baskets..They are staying outside.lol

If it's humid outside, they'll do fine in open air.  Oysters are extremely CO2 intolerant.  Leave the lid off, at least, unless frost is expected.

These things just wont fruit..They have like lite grey blobs that look like primordia, and even a couple of what looks like could be start of mushrooms off of that but thats all they have done in 3 days...
One would think that they would have grown in 3 days.
I don't know if I should just toss them or what?
My camera sucks so This is the best pic I could get.sorry

These have been in fruiting conditions for 14 days..Thats why I'm thinking that somethings not working..Weak strain or something.
It has tell tomorrow to do something different and if not I'm tossing everything including the rye jars I have going and buying a oyster strain thats more viable Unless someone wants to donate one(Hint,Hint).It will be the last time I clone from a super market.
Thanks for all the help and advise on this.:mushroom2:

14 days... that is quite a while, you should have fruits by now. I guess its pretty hit or miss with grocery store oysters.

Not that I'm aware of.
Its weird.Some of the cakes have really dark pins and some have light pins.
The LC came out of the same jar.
I did use a syringe that had cube spores in it at one time but it was in the steamer with the jars So I'm sure no spores survived plus I washed it out prior to steaming.
Im sure that they will turn darker as they get bigger.I hope..
Is that what they are suppose to look like?Really dark?

Usually they start off really dark when they are pins and the color gets lighter as they get bigger. IME the darkness of the cap is directly effected by how much light they are getting.

Ever since I moved them outside.They are just getting daylight..
Edit:Ive now added a small 18" florescent light that is in 6500k range since it is on a covered balcony,to give it a little more brighter light.
Heres a pic

    #9841259 - 02/21/09 08:55 PM (15 years, 3 days ago)

OK I ended up moving two of them inside yesterday morning as they weren't doing anything outside after pinning.As soon as I moved them inside they started growing and within 2 days they grew from the last pic I posted, to this.

But tonight those two started smelling like grape fruit or some weird fruity something..So Ive decided to toss them.I'm also throwing out the rest of the cakes as they aren't doing much beyond pinning and thats it.
They have been in fruiting for 18 days.I'm into this grow 48 days now and Ive had enough of it...I don't know if its the strain or the fruiting conditions..Ive given someone else a culture of this and he is going to put it to agar.Hopefully he has better luck with it..
    I'm moving on to a different strain and I'm not going to grow until I have a mini greenhouse set up.
Thank you guys for all the advice on this grow

Well at least you got some experience from all of this! Try out some Agrocybe aegerita... they have yet to do me wrong and they aren't as CO2 intolerant.

Next time, don't make a silly LC.  You never know what's growing in it besides the mushroom mycelium.  Oysters should fully colonize a cake in ten days, and then I always see pins within 48 hours of birthing the cakes.  They're the fastest species on brf cakes I've ever seen.  I use them in schools for demonstration purposes because it all happens so fast the kids don't lose interest.
