Grow log
Shroom Labs grow log
Updated
We are setting up three chambers to log in public: two Shroolys and one Lykyn Single-Tier, growing the same species side by side. Nothing has started yet, so there are no readings, yields, or photos here. Entries go up as they happen.
The chambers
Shrooly A
Status: Starting soon
Hardware: Shrooly
Software: OpenShrooly firmware
Runs the free profile for the comparison species.
Shrooly B
Status: Starting soon
Hardware: Shrooly
Software: OpenShrooly firmware
Second Shrooly, so one odd block does not decide the result.
Lykyn Single-Tier
Status: Arriving, outside-control validation pending
Hardware: Lykyn Single-Tier smart grow box
Software: Stock Lykyn controls for now
We still have to confirm Shroom Labs can read and set it from outside. Until then it runs on its own controls.
Planned comparison: Shrooly vs Lykyn
Species: Lion's Mane. The same species from the same batch of blocks, started the same day, in both Shroolys and the Lykyn. We log days to first pins, days to first harvest, and fresh weight per flush. The Shroolys follow the free profile, and you can map the stage dates with the grow timeline calculator.
Log entries
No entries yet. The first one goes up the day the grows start.
What each entry records
- Date (YYYY-MM-DD)
- Chamber
- Grow day
- Stage
- Temperature (°C, from the chamber log)
- Humidity (%, from the chamber log)
- What we saw
- Harvest weight (g, scale, only on harvest days)
Readings come from the chamber's own log. Harvest weights come from a kitchen scale. Blank means not measured.
FAQ
When does the grow log start?
When the Lykyn arrives and we confirm we can read and set it from outside. The two Shroolys start the same day so the comparison is fair.
Are the numbers real?
Yes. Each entry comes from a chamber log or a kitchen scale. If we did not measure it, the entry leaves it blank.
Why compare a Shrooly and a Lykyn?
Both are small home chambers. Growing the same species from the same blocks in each shows how much the chamber itself changes the result.
