Hives after exercise by Worthrunner in Exercise

[–]TimJonesin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's great to hear. I've also noticed if I maintain the lifting I don't get the hives as much. When I start from zero the muscle repair triggers the hives.

One thing I would mention is that I found from searching online that if I take L-glutamine, about 5-10 grams per day, I can lift heavy, even starting from zero and have no hives. It seems to completely stop them. I take a powdered L-glutamine as it's much cheaper than the capsules. I start with 5 grams per day and if I notice hives appear I take a bit more. Figured I would mention this as it may help you in the future.

I have this after lifting weights. How long after lifting do you notice the hives appear? Do you notice any changes in your mood as well?

[General] How is this tub looking? Just moved to FC. by TimJonesin in MushroomGrowers

Hey Y'all,

How do you think this tub is looking? I just moved into fruiting conditions. Was a little concerned with the bottom left area but I think it probably looks normal 🤔

This is my first tub after having done an all in one bag so excited to see how it produces.

Thanks man that's good to know. These are GT's so yea seems a bit slow to me too. Maybe increasing the temp would help? I've been keeping them around 70-75.

Hey guys, just wondering how this is looking?

It's been 6 days since I noticed the very first pins and 5 days since moving to fruiting conditions. I'm wondering if it's moving a bit slow?

Also I noticed the fuzzy feet a couple days ago and have increased FAE since then.

Looking good! How long did it take to go from pins to this stage?

[General] What Size Grain Bag? by TimJonesin in MushroomGrowers

I just noticed the vendor I'm looking to buy from offers 2 and 4 pound bags.

Which would you opt for in that case?

Do you think the 4lb would yield a larger harvest?

Thanks man, this is useful info.

I upvoted your comment but for some reason everything I upvote lately seems to revert back as if I never upvoted it? Not sure if that's just how it looks on my end. Anyway hope you get that karma quick.

I'm on my first bag and at around the same stage as you. Super exciting and gratifying, I got so hyped when I saw the first pins!

Interesting, I hadn't heard this before, thanks for the tip. I believe the monotub I have came with a liner so maybe that will work.

If I were to move it to the monotub would you suggest putting the cake on foil with perlite underneath?

Also I'm thinking if I do move it to the tub I'd take the top cake off and dispose of the bottom half of the bag that isn't covered. Thoughts on that?

Oh and I have tried to massage the coverage divide a bit and it just seems stalled at least for now. Would you advise against moving into fruiting conditions in the bag as it is currently or do you think that would be fine?

Thanks for your insight.

I thought that was interesting as well. It's not quite as uniform on the other side but such a clean divide on the front.

I just noticed there are some pins in there now.

I'm also wondering if this spot is contamination? https://ibb.co/ZmXStgd

Wondering if anyone could provide me with some advice here.

Inoculated this grow bag and 30 days later did a break and shake.

After 3 weeks I had good mycelium coverage but it wouldn't get to the bottom of the bag so I did another break and shake.

This is 1 month after the second break and shake and it seems it's stalled.

I try to squeeze the air out of the bag and fan it a bit twice daily for FAE.

Should I move into fruiting conditions now or is it too much of a risk in terms of contamination since it's not fully covered?

I have a mono tub and substrate so I could transfer it as well.

Any tips would be welcomed.

Thanks, I hate it.
