first bulk update

sluis88 · 10-28-09, 01:13

when do you guys think I should start to induce pinning? this is the casing layer. h poo underneath is completely colonized. they are phone pics so i am sorry in advance...but in pic 3 you can see the water droplets sitting on the casing layer. There is water droplets sitting on the top of both casing layers, what should I do about it? Is this bad?

You are ready to fruit. I see tons of hyphal knotting. Water droplets are normal--no worries there. Pooling water (which can lead to bacterial contamination) should be gently soaked up with a paper towel. Good vibes!

Yeah...lots of hyphal nodes, I bet you´ll can see pin in 1-2 days ^^
And what is these strain? =]

Good ole Golden Teachers!

Ill keep everyone updated

should be good to be placed in the light. the spots that are not colonized should colonize in another day or so.

I am trying a blue light wave grow lamp. Hopefully this will make them take off.

BuckarooBanzai · 10-28-09, 16:09

They don't need much light - extra won't help.

I would save that grow light for growing photosynthetic things.

MLBjammer · 10-28-09, 17:13

^^^^What he said, for sure! Don't waste a lot of energy for the shrooms. They don't need much, just whatever's available in a room.

sluis88 · 10-28-09, 17:24

Thanks for the advice.

sluis88 · 10-29-09, 15:20

So SWIM dropped the temp from 88 F to about 78 F. Been turning on light about 2 hrs a day. And connected air pumps for air exchange. Anything else I should do? Still no pins currently

BuckarooBanzai · 10-29-09, 16:29

Check on 'em every day to make sure they aren't drying out. You should see condensation on the walls of the tub every time you open them.

Other than that, be patient...

I have noticed the humidity dropping slightly. If it drys out more what should I do to keep the humidity up?

MLBjammer · 11-03-09, 16:02

You could carefully spray the walls of the tub, but you shouldn't need to do much of anything. Excellent pinset! They will grow very quickly now.

MushroomJoe · 11-03-09, 16:38

Beautiful man! Great Job!

P4ulada · 11-03-09, 18:28
