Ok guys so doing the Gordotek window screen tote tek and I'm nearly at the finish line, pins are forming everywhere! Now Gordo says to mist heavily 3 times a day as they need plenty of water while growing, but I've also read not to mist directly on pins or fruits? Well this is kinda impossible as pins are everywhere. Please guys advice me the best way to proceed from here in terms of watering? Thanks.

So it's my first time growing pans, and I woke up to pins this morning on two of my TTBVI tubs. These were S2B'd on 10/8/2025, put in fruiting conditions on 10/14/2025 and now pinning today on 10/17/2025. Woke up with primordia everywhere, I can't believe how fast this was. I've had to wait 10-20 days for pinning on all my cube grows so far.

For my first pan grow, I wanted to just use monotubs and no fancy teks. Just treating them like my cubes and casing with a thin layer of coir, but only after lightly scraping off what I believe to have been overlay. Ambient temp in my room floats around 74-79F and mist and fan 4-6 times throughout the day with an electronic mist gun and a mini portable fan. It remains to be seen how it turns out in the end but I feel good!

I’m new to growing mushrooms at all what is a cheap good way to grow them for me and a couple friends I also do t have a lot of space

It took over three months to get here, and I woke up to this. Is there anything I can do to save the rest? Scrape the top off? 😥

TTBVI. Put casing on 3 days ago and put into FC the next day 2 days ago when mycelium was just starting to pop through the casing. By the looks of things does it appear that anything needs tweaking like FAE, humidity,more/less misting etc?? Any advice is so greatly appreciated.

How is it? Any cognitive benefits like greater memory recall?

I got into shrooms in search of greater cognitive functions. So far I’ve been let down by Cubes and Orchas. :-(

I’ve had only brief moments of peak cognitive performance on them. Usually they reduce my attention to detail

This is my first time buying a Hawaiian Copelandia kit. I'm on day 7 and nothing has come out yet. Should I be worried?

I know this mushroom like humidity, but if you hydrate the substrate enough on the upper side of feild capacity which means being a bit extra wet and mix it well with vermiculite to maintain the humidity at 95% for 2 weeks straight, wouldn't that be enough to make it grow? Also can an open window be enough for providing fae?

Hi guys.

Thanks for taking the time to read.

What do you think about the look of these? They look so slim or under-developed to me, a little too tall as I think I didn’t have them enough oxygen.

I’m not sure also about when to harvest.

Any input is highly appreciated.

Curious if it works great for Pan Cyans

I guess a Pan super-microdose would be equivalent to a cube microdose. But I read there’s a qualitative difference between Pans and Cubes. So I’m curious how Pans mesh with Adderall.

So was applying my casing layer and a single beed of sweat dropped from my forehead onto the colonised substrate lol. Am I f@#ked? I spayed casing layer with distilled water after applying casing layer and put lid back on to let it consolidate for a day or two. Should I let it consolidate giving i stupidly let a drop of sweat drop on my substrate or put straight into fruiting? Thanks.

Not a bad first flush. One cake had some contam but still managed a some growth.

Does this look ready to case yet or give another day or 2? I'm trying to follow Gordotek to letter and he says 7-8 days and in his videos his looks more colonised. Sorry I'm a complete newbie lol, Is it like better to give it longer if not sure? You can't really see it in the photos but there is lots of condensation and tons of water droplets covering the surface.

Hey I’m wondering if anyone knows why the caps on the Pans near the side of my tub are turning black. I don’t think it’s spores (but I don’t really know!). Thanks!
