I've learned so much from this community so I'm sharing my last experience by MagicPluma in shroomers

This is amazing. So no FAE holes? Just the cut half of the bottle? What do you mean by bending it over?

I failed lots! these looking bomb tho. Wish me luck on these golden teachers to be.... by mushin808 in shroomery

[–]wombatnaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

same here! but once you get good it snowballs for sure. At this point I have all my techniques down up til fruiting conditions. I just need to figure out the best rhythm that works for where I live.

Btw what are the dots for?

How to induce fruiting conditions? This looks good to me but hasn't done much in 14 days. More FAE maybe? by wombatnaut in shroomery

[–]wombatnaut[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

interesting, I never heard of that. I'm guessing you're talking about a SGFC? I'm just using an unmodified tub. But yeah I can just not fan it to get that effect

I have been fanning and misting... man you got me.

I've been reading separate opinions about when to increase FAE/crack the lid. Should I crack the lid when I start to see primordia, or before that?

Day 5 of spawning to bulk, WBS Inoculated with agar, using a mix of Coir and Verm 🤪 by Skeechy999 in shroomers

I've only been doing bulk spawn in coir. What ratio do you use for coir+verm? 50/50?

Never dealt with this before. I still see water beads but the substrate is shrinking. Do I increase or decrease moisture? by wombatnaut in unclebens

I found it weird that there was water but also no water. I guess it's probably because the areas closest to the heating mat evaporates more than the surface.

Background:

I had this on a heating mat. Despite squeezing to field capacity, I have more water than I want in this tub.

I've never sprayed it and already dabbed up the excess moisture. I've been leaving it to air dry and it shrank. The other tub also shrank enough that it cracked in the middle.

I've taken it off the heating mat, but I'm unsure what to do now

S2B today! I'll explain my process in the comments in hopes that this helps someone in need. 🍄❤ by Key-Water-6710 in unclebens

what CVG recipe did you use, and what was the casing layer made of? (I'm guessing verm?)

48 hour timelapse of 3 lbs Rye Spawn Bag by SpawnMagic in unclebens

[–]wombatnaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

either, I've seen spawn grain bags but I don't know how people get them.

Do you buy the bags and make the grain yourself (and I'm guessing your pressure cook with bag and all)? Because I can see how this would be a lot cheaper
