i have a theory....

i dont know if i'm correct but maybe i am...

i think you may have too many holes. try taping up some and see if that raises your Relative Humidity.

Researchkitty, for whatever reason I can't message you so I'll just ask here? What model and cost was the dehydrator did you use?

P.S. Great thread, +rep.

Kitty just looked at all the pages very nice impressive. Can you tell me why you dunk cakes into water after colonization? Also is that water tap, distilled, or boiled? Thanks My bad I see it is distilled, can you tell me is this step necassary? Or can you just put the cakes in fruiting chamber as is?

Hey I have read lots of your post and plan on reading all of them when I have more time, they have given me the energy to try this project again. I thought it was impossible to do this stuff!!!!!!!!! I noticed in your posts you said your from canada and you have mentioned living in the mountains so that leads me to believe your from bc? The reason I ask is have you ever thought about selling just the mushroom spawn? I would like to try this project but like you said some people would rather buy clones then then grow a mother plant and so on and so on. I'm currently trying to get some company that sells kits to sell it to me but dealing with some of these people is difficult because they all are so sketched out and don't like to talk about certain things. I have endless amounts of space and a HUGE demand. I live in Mission if you can help that would be great if not thats ok too your post have done enough to at least get me excited about trying one more time.

Sorry man, cant reveal where I actually am, and certainly MUST refuse ANY request for ANY transactions on the Internet. That's a big no-no to the RIU rules and could place you, and/or me at risk. Check the rules you signed up for and good luck on the site.... :)

Badass grow kitty! rep you if I could, but gotta spread more around. And fuck I wish I could still find shrooms at 20 an 1/8th, in the past two years prices have gone sky high down south, I'm lucky to find some bomb shrooms at 10 a gram, usually have to pay 15

are these getting natural light? ... or do they even really need light?
Very poorly demonstrated by my photographs, there are windows directly behind the tubs. :-) Daylight, my friend, daylight.

If you have an environment where natural lighting isnt possible, just string up some white christmas tree lights. Keep em on a few hours a day that's all they need. They arent light hogs like marijuana, they require very little, but enough so they know what direction to grow. Cool white light (aka christmas tree white or flouro white) are what seems to work the best according to most grow guides...........

Sorry if this question has been asked but whats the best way to clone? Im going to be growing soon but don't want to bother buying prints again. I googled some methods but would like to ask you for the best method :)

Spore Prints are very inexpensive to make. Just flip upside down the cap of a mushroom over aluminum foil and let it sit for a day. When you remove it, the foil looks like the mushroom kissed it with a bunch of spores. It takes no more than 30 seconds to do. YouTube "make spore print".
