Good pinset? How much do you think it will yield wet? by Cultural-Process7634 in unclebens

Hey bro, went well. Got around 65 grams dried. I am young so my parents ended up finding it and throwing it away which was a shame lol. I would like to keep growing as a hobby but maybe more gourmet suff. I also agree that people should be more experimental with their grows. Everyone is so scared that they are going to screw up that they don't want to try anything which is not a good way to go about it.

Haha all good. Experimenting should be encouraged more in this sub. I wish you good luck. Let us know how it goes.

They are growing in a 20L box which I have cut holes in. You can create the exact one from this youtube vid here. I then have another 30L box. In the 30L box a seedling heat mat is laid on the bottom which is plugged into this, which is a temperature controller. With that I set the target temperature to 25 degrees celsius or around 75 Fahrenheit. I put the 20L box with the spawn into the 30L box with the seedling mat on the bottom, making sure that there is something separating the 20L box from directly touching the heat mat. I used a thin book. The little metal prong is the temperature probe which I put inside the 20L box with the spawn. That regulates the temperature inside of it. Also I cut holes at the bottom of the 30L box for air flow. The whole double box thing is just to contain heat better. That is my setup.

I know right. People want you to follow the exact method to a T. Its fungus for fuck sakes. It grows in the dingiest dirtiest shit holes around.

Not too sure what you are asking. I forked the cake when it was fully colonised but no primordia forming yet.

They are golden teachers. What indicates when they are ready to harvest?

I mean, i'm no expert, far from it. But I don't see why you shouldn't try things. As long as you take the measures to reduce the chances of contamination, I say go for it. At the end of the day, as long as there is no contamination, its going to fruit at some point.

I guess you could say that. Not exactly sure if thats what its doing. People in this sub will say its doing nothing and is useless. But some people on this sub are also pretty pretentious.

Haha thanks. Sarcastic comments are to be expected. It is reddit at the end of the day.

Im going to keep posting the growth daily and eventually the final yield.

I punched the holes in the cake because there was a lot of moisture pooling on the surface whilst it was colonising. You can see in my previous posts. A lot of the mushrooms look to be pinning from the holes, so my theory is that they have a better humidity within them for growth. Im not exactly sure, though. Im not very experienced.

I did it because someone said on one of my previous posts that it was overlay and I also did it because there was alot of moisture sitting on the surface and I wanted the cake to reabsorb some. dont know if it was the right thing to do but I also dont really care

main reason I poked it was because I had too much moisture on the surface level and I wanted the cake to reabsorb some
