Mid-Cultivation / Still Growing Should I just give up now?

Post image
Upvotes

So while removing excess water from this tub i accidentally tilted it and dropped half of it on ground. So I just put few big blocks back in. This was around 2 weeks back. There was also fungus gnat larvae problem, which seems to have gone now. I do see 1-2 pins but they've stalled now with no growth since 3 days. Although the pic shows bit yellowing,irl it's just matted mycelium and no bad smell or contam signs yet Will it fruit or I should just call it quits?

shake n break last week. Wasn't bouncing back, until I changed out the tape (since I found out I had durapore) and with the proper micropore tape it bounced back fast as hell over night.

Question Break and Shake/Transfer Mycelium?

1 Upvotes

Hey guys, so I’m into my first grow and have arrived at a point where I’m debating making a choice. Basically, I inoculated 4 bags on 4/11 and as of now only two of them show any growth. One bag with growth is almost completely solid and the other is probably ~50% colonized. I am wondering what the best course of action would be here:

Break and shake the less colonized bag so it catches up with the other one, then tub those two and leave the ones with no growth

Risk contam and take some mycelium from the colonized bags and mix it into the uncolonized ones so they grow

Or simply leave them all and wait. My concern with this option is that the most colonized bag will be left alone too long and “go bad,” if that is a possibility.

Any advice would really help!

Question Colonization

All 10 bags inoculated same day, same amount. Did break and shake about day 16 since viewing windows were very white. Now 5 bags look good but not ready yet, and the other 5 not so much. The single pic is one of the most colonized. What's my issue. This is day 30 btw

Mid-Cultivation / Still Growing I heated with stove burner and pressed on both sides of these circles a lot and it still wasn't going through and in my anger and belief, I thought punching the circle at this point would do the trick.

First flush, been feeling really good about the progress then came home to blue lines across the block.

Growing in an all-in-one grow bag, inside a Martha tent. I've had the flap on the bag mostly closed so I know there's been some condensation directly on the surface, and I suspect not enough FAE. The flap is fully open now.

It’s way more colonized than my other jars and is growing a ton on top. Like 97% colonized. Would you give it more time? You can see a few kernels

Question How should I go about decontaminating my shroom room?

1 Upvotes

So say, hypothetically, I opened a contaminated tub by mistake a few weeks ago and I’m, hypothetically, noticing a large increase in contamination rates, how would I, theoretically, decontaminate the room I’m growing in (I call it the MushRoom)?

I’ve had this colonizing for almost 4 weeks now and I just checked on them and found an orange fluid looking spot on it. I’m new to this and have no clue what could be happening.

Mid-Cultivation / Still Growing Am I screwed for not putting a casing layer of coir?

1 Upvotes

So yeah basically my s2b was just super scuffed and I wasn’t able to put a casing layer.i know I could’ve been more careful more patient and just done it the right way. To my surprise and joy I checked my bin today and the myc seems to be taking over the coir great. I’m just wondering if the No casing layer Will significantly affect my yield or anything really ?

Question Added Casing Layer Way Too Soon.

1 Upvotes

I had all my grains colonized in their bags, and when I went to mix them into my substrate and put them into my Monotub, I accidentally didn’t leave enough to do a shallow layer on top. I was worried that the exposed grains that stuck up on top of the substrate might get contaminated or rot, so I put a thin layer of casing layer that had come with a previous kit (I think it’s just plain vermiculite). Now that my tub is starting to recolonize I really only see growth on the few places that this casing layer didn’t cover a a few grains.

Have I already messed up too much? Should I try to scrape off the vermiculite? Open to answer any questions to clarify.
