Well the oysters are almost ready to fruit, I think they are doing well.
I am a bit frustrated with the enokitake though, I cant decide whether to leave the lid ON or OFF. Since it is supposed to be sprayed with 10 sprays a day, I would think leaving the lid on would drown them??? What do you think? At first I was gonna leave it on and i noticed how wet it was getting in there so it is now open.

I am seeing some pins/aborts from the enokitake tube. I have left the lid off for now, but still sort of confused. The flushes arent supposed to take place for another week, so I guess the fact that these pins arent growing much and appear to be drying out arent much to be worried about.
The oyster patch is developing what look like big white clumps, I'll take a pic tonight and post it (i'm not at home at the moment). I have applied the humidity tent over them and have been spraying once in the morning and again before I go to bed. I am prety sure that the clumps are just primordia and not a contam since they are white.. I've also looked at some oyster cultivation pics and saw something similar. The primordia on mine is very large.. Anyways gonna get a pic later.

There is a link somebody posted regarding fruiting parameters for various fungi. I think when I set up my oysters I'm going to spawn straw to a 5 gallon pail, case with potting soil & after some time to colonize I'll drill holes in the side of the bucket.
My plant stand chamber might do for enokie, I'll be growing those in mason jars.
Good luck & bon apetite
