casing questions B+

whiteknightification · 08-18-09, 18:53

Hi I was wondering if anyone had pictures from the starting of the fuiting stage till pinning. I cased my B+ colonized rye seed with 10 parts verm 10 parts peat and 1 part gypsum. It is currently day 3 for first pic and day 1 for second pic in the fruiting chamber. I have both trays at 99% humidity and between 76-77f and prior to that they were incubated in darkness at 86f with an aquarium dayglow light 12 on 12 off. I was told by day 6 it should pin.

I don't have any pics, but from what it looks like, it looks good. keep up the FAE. and it's not always by day 6, especially when you do a ms, then it can be hard to tell, but defiantly by day 14.

Thank you very much jedi

I recently had flush one on a bulk B+ grow. The link will take you to that grow log, one tray's B+ the other Orissa India. Good pics from start to finish. I had pins in 6 days from multispore which i thought was super fast. My FC is running at about 72F, I found fruiting a bit better in the low to mid 70's range as opposed to the higher 70's for cubies.

Your RH is too high, so I would advise getting a good bit more air exchange. The second tray looks really wet. You want your RH around 90% or so for casings.

Good luck, hoping for pins for you.

I just did a nine qt tub of b+ with no casing layer and it turned out great I'm on an I phone right now but if you want to pm me I'll gladly send you my pics from my fourth flush which I harvested some ten inch 23g monsters b+ in my experince is quite contam resistant and for me b/c I'm growing in a medical marijuana grow room the temp is kinda high and alot of times casing in the heat it greened really quick so I just stopped casing all together and still came out with around two ounces so far and still on my fifth flush as we speak no green.

I'm a little confused by your post. It sounds like you've just cased but you are wondering when the trays will pin? From the pics it looks like the casing layers were unevenly colonized and may have a bit of overlay going on. I'm wondering if you may have cased and then put them in the fruiting chamber...

To improve your casing experience I'd suggest:

1. fully colonize the substrate in your incubation chamber
2. fully colonize the casing layer (approx 5 days) in the incubation chamber
3. during this phase patch the casing layer by moving it around so that the myc breaks through evenly all over, and
4. only then to move the trays to the fruiting chamber.

The drop in temp and increase in O2 will signal to the myc that it is time to enter the fruit stage and stop the vegatative stage. This will help prevent overlay.
