Title: What's wrong (Pics)
Post by: Vandal_xx on March 25, 2011, 04:36:12 AM

Hey guys been doing cakes for the last year or so and finally crushed up a 1pint cake, put it in a pan and coveredit with about a 1-1 1/2" layer of vermiculite at feild capacity. Now They have been in natural indirect sunlight at about 70F. I mist and fan 2-3 times per day. I am happy with the yeild for my first attempt, but any ideas why they are all laying down? Too much watering?
Here is a good looking cake from the same spore print.
