Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I've discovered it might also be not enough air (and oxygen) getting in to them.

So to keep the air flowing through I've made more holes in the container they are in and hopefully the next lot won't be so hairy.

Hi,
my name Dusan and this is my first post :)

I have question about petris, agar mix and agar preparation instructions...
For growing some kind of mushrooms we need petris with agar...

Can we avoid this agar and what can replace this?
And if we can, do you have some instruction?

Hi,

Introduction first off - I've just joined this forum and got loads of info from it which has shown me how to get my growing project up to the fruiting stage successfully. For a first timer the info here has been excellent.

I've looked around for answers to this question already, but wasn't sure from the replies I found what the answer is. So I've got my shrooms growing nicely in my fruiting container (a big plastic box) and they have a bright white fur / fuzz growing from the cakes up the stems. They seem to start off with the fur just at the base, and as they grow it grows with them working it's way up the stems. I've attached some pics so you can see what I mean. I don't know if it's cobweb mold or just mycelium, but maybe someone more experienced than me can say for sure.

What do you guys think? What causes this? Too much humidity? Too little humidity?

Dear Friends of Clusterbusters

The 56th Annual Scientific Meeting is designed for physicians, psychologists, scientists, researchers, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and other health professionals involved in the care of patients with head, neck, and orofacial pain.

American Headache Society 56th Annual Scientific Meeting

While the entire conference is informative and a great opportunity for all headache sufferers and family, we are happy to point out that one of the sessions during this conference will feature Dr. Peter Goadsby speaking on managing Cluster Headaches.

This dual conference event will allow Clusterbusters to meet with all the leading headache specialists to discuss treatments and help educate the medical community regarding the needs of cluster patients. We will be reaching out to those attending who still need to become informed of the efficacy and need for properly prescribing oxygen as well as the wide array of all standard and alternative treatment options.

Our attendance at AHMA's conference allows us to reach out to the patients and families living with cluster headaches and other related headache disorders. Better understanding of cluster headaches among the entire headache community will improve the diagnosis process and help everyone find a treatment plan that suits them.
