Re: Daubz Atta cephalotes
Any of those are fine, tbh, just different mixes. I try to use as generic a substrate ass possible.Daubz1977 wrote:I can only find john innes 1,2,3

Re: Daubz Atta cephalotes
I put some privet in with them earlier, i left them for 30mins and went back to check and they had cut 2 large pieces so i left them for a bit longer when i got back i saw them cutting it into smaller pieces and there was a couple of smaller bits being moved around the fungus, i also think there seems to be a few more black bits on the fungus.

Re: Daubz Atta cephalotes

Re: Daubz Atta cephalotes
They are very busy at the moment, there is always new leaf on the fungus, its like a continuous production line.
