WoW!! I LOVE it!!!! :bow:

How are these growing so quickly?!

What can cause mushies to grow slowly?

WOW...wtf? i think you're being serious aren't u?

[crankykid]

I don't mean in the minute that they're growing. Ha. I know these are time lapsed, it's in the title.

:D

What I mean is, how they grow so large over the two days indicated by the timestamp. Mine take much longer to reach maturity. And it seems like quite a few of them seem to abort. I can't quite grasp why.

:cry:

ok dude, thanks for clarifying...i don't know man...mine have always doubled their size in a day. well, actually, i believe it depends upon the strain bc the mystery strain i'm growing now is taking a long time to grow. the fastest i've seen would be the ECUADOR, CAMBODIAN, and BRAZILLIAN...if u want fast i would recommend any of those....but especially the BRAZILLIAN, it's a wicked fast colonizer and fruiter...hope that helps man, and thanks for posting...:eusa_clap

cool beans. nice finds. :bow:

Hmm...

I'm currently working with EQs and GTs. GTs are just incubating. I've gone through around 10 1'x1' trays of EQs, where once pins are set it takes close to two weeks for mature fruit.

The size and yield also seem to be an issue here. Many pins are aborting and final mature fruit significantly smaller than one would expect.

I'm using Popcorn as a substrate, rez tek once jars are colonized, and verm as casing. Casing is misted until pins form. RH in the fruiting chamber falls between 93% and 96%, and the temp steady around 60F. Daily light exposure. The RH is kept up by pumping air into the chamber into a glass of distilled water. Even with fresh air entering the chamber, I fan it twice daily.

I'm just beginning to clone some of the bigger fruit that I've picked so far. Maybe that will make a difference.

well if i were u i would consider a dub tub or sandbag set-up for fruiting. use horse or donkey dung with coir 50/50 for a sub...and when u see those pins begin fanning like crazy, or just make sure they have plenty of fae by way of airports...this has always worked well for me...if u have any questions or i wasn't clear enough feel free to ask...cheers...:pirate:

What's the fruiting temperature? My babies have slowed way down since the weather got cooler (lazy fuckr I am, I havent rigged up a heater yet).

[crankykid]

Fruiting temp is 60F.

I'll try more FAE holes. If that's a no go, I'll go with your other advice.

[crankykid]

Oh...Thanks a ton for all the help and listening, I always appreciate it.

well if ur asking me it's constantly fluctuating...right now i'd say 75 or so...

Temps affect maturation of fruits greatly

oh np man...they're alot of really cool people here at topia...alot of them know waaaaay more than i do...but what i said has worked well for me. if u've never tried a sandbag or tub, you should make one ur next proj. IMO...:headbang:

yes indeed... i incubate @ 83 degrees and then when i' ready to fruit i drop it ten degrees and keep it there...do u do this as well oib, or do u do something different?

[crankykid]

Hmmmm.....

Maybe I'm fruiting too cold...?

Definitely checking out the sandbagging tek as we speak.
