Planned on posting these yesterday but got lazy after a big dinner. Day 8, around 188 hours. They took a bit longer but are ready to shake up today or tomorrow.
My order from MushroomSupplies.com, #5 of dung loving style substrate and a #5 All-In-One, arrived yesterday. Hella fast shipping! Bags should be ready to mix with substrate a week or so after shake.
Listening to Rush's "Moving Pictures" album while performing the smash, shmush & shake of all 8 rice bags. Coulda done it 2 days ago. They should be ready to mix with substrate by next Friday, 5/17/24 to Monday, 5/20/24.
OMG, was just studying Mushroom Supplies' literature for their product and discovered I've miscalculated and inoculated twice as much grain as I need. Oh, well, now I'll have extra if I find contaminated bag(s), or more shrooms if not. If I end up with extra maybe I'll try dunking them, rolling them in substrate and set them on perlite with foil underneath. Blue Yeti brick still just idling along.
Day 11 since inoculation, one day post smash-n-smoosh:
You guessed it, another set of photos of fungus growing on rice. This time day 13 post inoc, day 3 post smash-n-smoosh and apparently completely grown through. I think these are ready to go into casing tomorrow, after only two weeks.
