Bulk monotub shroom grow.

And those low 70's temps are ok too?

Yea its ok, not ideal but OK. Fruiting generates some heat of its own, I actualy made my last bucket's cake in a donut shape to get more even air and heat. The TK finaly started pinning, They are so small but so cute, its the only strain I know that pins in this way, like perfectly formed little mushrooms maybe 2 or 3 mm in lenght when you spot them. They don't get particularly big but every one gram is equivalent to AT LEAST 2g of any other strain of cubes I tried. People nag me for this shit when I experiment with new strains.

Its covered with a blanket so I may just turn the lights on to get the heat up. I would like to see some pics of those little guys when you get a chance.

actually thats Tim Lincecum a pitcher for the Giants and a stoner thats won 2 Cy Youngs already in 3 years

Ahha you are right. I am a braves fan so that's my excuse for not knowing him by face. Are you sure he is a stoner because is is a Filipino. How the cakes going man?

That's crazy dude. I have seen allot of coke head athletes but never a stoner. I guess as a pitcher you don't have to run and you get allot of days off so that makes sense.

Transkei starting to come out

Harvested a few before I rememebr to take a pic. It is always easy to identify the transkei from other caps of dried cubes, as the caps are almost golden in colour when dried.

Nice my man! How Afrika treaten ya? I get to take my tubs out of the darkness next week. I am going to do a couple of 5 gallon bucket fruiting chambers with my extra cam jars tomorrow. I still have a couple of syringes of chilean and LaPrimaverea that I'm gonna knock up as well. Dude look at the pics that make you lol thred near the end and look at the post about the guy that worked on this dodes car while tripping. It's hilarious! Have good day bro.

I am a Met fan, but I love Lincecum the "FREAK".

I am behind on the cakes due to not using an incubator, but should be birthing cakes next week. I am thinking about getting a pc soon and starting the Ozz tek. What spawn are you using? What tek? Probably try buffalo poo for my substrate because my bud has a farm where he raises them. Trying to get my grow room going too, and had 6 out of 8 males show this week, so trying to find clones, which is not easy where I live.

I'm doing the ozz tek. That's the tek I based this thread on. I'm doing that tek to the t x 2 tubs. I am using wild bird seed With 6 colonized qt jars in each tub with the horse poo mix. We don't have buffaloes in the south east.

Maybe you can help me out Estesj...

Here are a few pics of my jars. One has mold I believe... and another one I'm unsure of. I think both can be salvaged, or no?

How far colonized do you think they are?

I'll be using the mycelium water technique to produce more mycelium syringes.

* The second photo... nearly the whole bottom is white... is it ready for fruiting?

* The third photo it looks like its pinning... small nipple obtrusions?

* The fourth photo... on the top near the dry vermiculite, it looks like a small area of mold is growing? What does it look like? Can it be surgically removed?

* The sixth photo has obvious mold

Please advise...I'm getting worried here. Its been a month and a week now since incubating... and the vermiculite is really drying out.

Check em well I get the idea those brown areas is just vermiculite, its not gonna eat that, its just there to alow gas in and retain water.
Also the ones with the saturn spots, could be one of two things, a contam, which in my opinion whould have taken the whole jar in like 2 or 3 days. Or an invitro pin, because of being in the jars so long allready.

Open the nice jars first and put them in their FC, then do the other ones into a seperate one, to avoid possible cross contamination.

Yes.... its only a small portion where that is happening... its been visible for some days now. The cake is predominately white... should I birth already ANC?
