Title: Bag setup question, everyone look think someone has incite, please help?
Post by: FunguyB on October 25, 2010, 10:46:05 AM
Ok so here is the situation my fellow cultivatiors, I have a bag set up and have grown and pulled all the ones that are grown. I was going to dunk it for 7 to 8 hours and then put back and see if it will flush. As you guys can tell I have not done it, been sitting in the dark for 3 days and last night at 8pm, which was exact 3 days. Now, we have 8 little ones pop up they about a human nail tall. I was wondering if I should put it back on a 10/14 hour process light/dark and see what happens to grow again. I can tell my log has gotten smaller like I have been told you will see, it is still wet but not as damp as the first time. This is me first time and was wondering if I should hit the bag with sprays of distilled water a little and let it go back to growning. Let me know what anyone can tell me what up, any input is great. I am going to put it back on my normal cycle like i did first, that lead to tall and very potent kidds.

THanks,

I'd imagine a bit of water could do it some good. Though you don't want to directly spray too much otherwise it can create overgrowth. Is this your 2nd or 3rd flush growing?

That is what I am unclear of, I was able to grab 4 sets of kidds one after the other and grew big and nothing else was growing. So I have talked to a couple people but they do cakes and was told to dunk it for 7 to 8 hours beause not a cake and will break up or shrink to bad. I have read that alot of people let their stuff let sit for a 3 to 4 days with no production then dunk. I have not dunked yet so I would think this would be a 2nd flush without getting dunked. I am not sure but that is what is going on.

Mushrooms tend to grow in groups, which are called flushes. So from what you are saying, you're on your 4th flush? If so, you're probably near the end of the road with that bag. I personally wouldn't try to dunk it, because you're right, it would probably fall apart. I would just try and keep it a hydrated with spraying.
