Welcome!
This is my first tub ever,using straw and horse poo,spawned with a crumbled pf cake.Humified with perlite.
Im sorry for the quality,this is just a cell phone.My concerns are:
-i made a mistake by not flattening the substrate,so there are holes.
-there are tiny water drops on the mycelium
-a few places there are tiny bluing ropes of mycelium
-pinning should start in any day now!
the last 2 days frequent(3x daily) fanning dried it out i betanyway i'll fan just once.
to correct the hole problem,i filled the second tub(not shown,ill only take photos when its colonised!) with sterilized worm castings and now it has an even surface.i misted it lightly,its not swimming.
the second tub is now colonising the added worm poo layer,i hope it turns out okay.
Should i add this layer to the first one too?those holes are making me nervous.i bet the shrooms wont like growing out from that.
i hope you understand me guys &gals , i just love my other plants flowers too(see last photo :rasta: ) and pretty high right now,plus english isnt my first language,forgive my mistakes :loveeyes:
