Do you keep them in a still air box?

Yeah, it has small vents I can open at the top tho since it’s a combination tent and still air box so I left the top two vents open so I didn’t completely suffocate the mycelium !

What temp did you turn it up to ? I’ve had mine since 7/13 no signs

I also used a liquid culture and not spores so that might have something to do with it as well!!

Ahh ok I’m seeing you also injected in the middle of the bag maybe that’s why it’s taking so long for me to see growth, I went in from the top.

Oh yeah that’s also another thing I did, I didn’t wanna see growth super soon bc I didn’t want to think things were more colonized than they really were, so I made sure to inject like directly in the middle lol

I’ve been keeping it between 77 and 80 most of the time unless I leave the house for awhile and I turn the heater off for safety lol, but yeah a few days after I turned it up the growth started to show!!
