etc... just search shrromery and RR's posts
Plus...an incubator at 86 degrees is allready too hot, not to mention cakes produce an additional 3-4 degrees making it around 90..that promotes slower growth than cold temps. Just use room temp.

The next batch i'll be utilizing the mycelium water technique... how they explained it in the shroomery forum... it sounds quite complicated... how you explained it seemed so much easier.
How much of a success rate is there using this technique?

Thanks for the links. Definitely makes sense. I think I would be better off to just go with normal Room Temps from now on. I'm moving the PE from their heat mats now, as well as my army of Creeper & Z jars.

I had 100% success with my attempts...I knocked up about 20 jars from just one doner jar doing it my way. I seldom follow teks to the T. I just learn and understand the principles behind something before making an attempt, That way I'm not just a button pushing monkey, I can react accordingly if something goes array.

Happy to report.... that three heads are popping from the cake and one nice mushroom is enveloping...
Although I expect two cakes to have possible mold... its a light greenish grey... but no worries I have them isolated in there own little fruiting chamber. Twice a day I spray the area with antibacterials.... and douse the counters with alcohol! Could misting the cake with water lead to mold... thats one of my big concerns?
I heard you can add a 1:10 ratio of Hydroxide peroxide to the water... to take care of that problem? What's your standpoint on that? As directed, I'm keeping the humidity levels above the 90% percent range...

what you think is mold probably is bruising from misting. mold is usually a definite green. Blue/gray sounds like bruising especiially if its occuring on a fully colonized cake.brusing wont hurt the cake but it may be a sighn of over misting.
As far as treating mold, im skeptic, i just throw the cakes away. I kinda think its not worth infecting your house with the spores just to save a 25 cent cake.

Thanks for the informative reply mate!
I too heard it might be bruising... the cake doesn't have a stitch to it... so I suppose its good! How would a cake infested with mold smell anyways?

What is the ideal temperature for fruiting? Or moreso pinning of mushrooms?
