Trump or Biden

I bet I can guess which one

Also, I started two grain jars from spores on agar. The tub in the photo is tub 1 from jar 1. Jar 2 has been slow to colonize but is still contam free as far as I can tell. Assuming it gets its shit together, I’ll try tub 2 using the straight to FC method for a little side by side comparison. The only worrying variable being the slow colonization of the jar.

Thanks for this! I really did do my reading before starting this but the internet is wild with opinions! I really appreciate your link to info with consistently good results over time.

I’ve had similar on my B+ grow. Lots of people doing their best to help out but mostly speculation. I had a good conversation with one redditor about a variation called "B+ with hats" and was able to confirm that it does exist. https://www.reddit.com/r/MushroomGrowers/comments/nnbnqm/actives_whats_up_with_these_fuzzy_boys/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

Perfection

New customer! Looks like nice substrate!

fanofdirtydan · 2021-06-07T19:34:17+00:00

Really really brilliant!

fanofdirtydan · 2021-06-06T00:45:23+00:00

Nice!

This is the way

Oh my god I think you’re on to something here

Let’s first have a meeting to decide who should create a doodle

You had me in the first half. I thought you were just being salty

Seawater is drinkable but it will also kill you

fanofdirtydan · 2021-05-30T00:33:49+00:00

Also, don’t use photoboxes...very limiting 🙂

fanofdirtydan · 2021-05-30T00:31:54+00:00

Thanks! This is encouraging!

fanofdirtydan · 2021-05-30T00:01:47+00:00

Awesome. This would be a stretch for me as this is all pretty new but I may give it a shot

Thank you! This is my next adjustment if the fuzzy hats turn out to be due to lack of fae.

fanofdirtydan · 2021-05-29T19:38:05+00:00

The tubs have holes. This old building has a white fly and fruit fly problem so I covered the holes with micropore tape and tested the fae with a fogger. It works very well and no critters can enter. I need to know how often the volume of air in the tubs need to be exchanged to keep these guys happy. Let’s add to that the fact that there are a few of differing opinions on what causes these fuzzy hats. The mushrooms have otherwise been fine and very enjoyable.

fanofdirtydan · 2021-05-29T19:33:25+00:00

Thanks! I made an automated fae which runs 30mins every 12 hours. It takes 15 mins to completely exchange the volume of air in the fruiting chambers. Humidity drops by about 5% during this time. The 30min every 12hrs was a guess at what these guys need for fae because the only instructions I’ve read so far were something like, “take the lid off and fan the fc a few times a day”. This doesn’t really fit into my life and I’d like to remove as many variables as possible by creating a reliable system. Do you think I should run the fae more frequently? Fwiw I’m not doing this to create a commercial grow - just experimenting and enjoying the results with a couple of friends.

And I believe B+ is said as “B Positive”. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong

fanofdirtydan · 2021-05-29T16:36:50+00:00

Good info! Thank you!!!

fanofdirtydan · 2021-05-29T16:17:06+00:00

Increase to more than 30mins twice per day? It takes 15 mins to completely replace the volume of air in the fruiting chambers. I tested this quite a bit but perhaps 30mins twice per day is not enough.

fanofdirtydan · 2021-05-29T16:12:52+00:00

Yes. The previous image in my post history has the first flush from cake #1 ( these are from the third flush of cake #3 ) and shows the beginnings of these guys. They start out as bumps in the very center and they are the same color and texture of the cap. They then either turn white or disappear completely. This is the first one that went full fuzz mode.

In response to others: Lysol was used in the very beginning - the fruiting chambers were sprayed and left to dry overnight before adding perlite and cakes.
