All jars get sterilized lids on and don’t get touched until they go directly into the glove box.pics of your glove box never gets old!!!
a buddy of mine upgraded his sandblaster and is gonna give me his old one... i was gonna just use it as a sandblaster but man now you got me thinking!!!!!

did you remember to wipe and dry the top lip of your jars before putting the dry layer of verm in?
Could be, but I’m very diligent about cleanliness when it comes time to inject the spores.
I do everything in here. Everything and I mean everything is whipped down with isopropyl and cleaned.View attachment 995176View attachment 995178
Im keen to get started on this, question is do they smell much?

Mushies scare you, but you'll take lsd?
Lsd = 8-12 hrs "madness"
Mushies 4-6 hrs of waves.
I've eaten 10x more acid than most. I'd gladly take mushies vs acid any day now.
For sure you got taken, lesson learned. For coco try to get the big 5kg brick at the grow store. Mine has em for 10 bux.so i have started to gather some supplies to start my very first bulk substrate and mono tub!!!!! i kind of got taken for a sucker on a $15 bag of 5lbs of grains... turns out i can get a 50lb bag of oats for $14!!! i won't b making that mistake again.

the jars were on sale for $9 a pack... i prefer the wide mouth but they didn't have any... folks like the regular mouth for moonshine so if i pick up wide mouths in the future i'll just use these for shine!!!
i picked up a couple tubs, not the huge one just the mid size to get started. i ordered a few goodies online too... some polyfill, gypsum, injection ports, and some syringe filters because i would like to give liquid culture a shot.
i'm pretty excited about it so i'm gonna get started in a few days!!!!
My brf cakes are still colonizing. i may soak them in the next few days, i saw a pin on just two of the jars so i'll be patient.
i may use the second round of brf cakes to grow a mono tub with, not decided yet...

Yes, you can get 4 to 5 flushes if your mycelium is strong, and contam free. If I get 2 good flushes I'm happy.yeah when i realized it a couple days ago i felt like goober!!!
thanks for the coco tip, that is the one thing i didn't have to buy this time, i buy those 5kg bricks for my worm farm though. i only get it once every couple years so i'm sure i'll be using more of it now.
HeLLfiReZ, i wanted to ask you a couple questions about your tek... you mentioned that after a harvest you dunk your tub in water to re hydrate it.... is that for a second flush?
Yes, you can get 4 to 5 flushes if your mycelium is strong, and contam free. If I get 2 good flushes I'm happy.
I will usually judge it like a soil plant. I know how heavy when spawned and fully hydrated. After a flush I lift the tub, if really light I dunk. If they are still fairly heavy (usually a mediocre flush) I pull back the liner and bottom water.
I have been pretty slack lately. But i have some agar and grain on the go.Grabbed 50kg of whole oats for $30 to try out.

Looks like things are on their way. You got some shrooms happening. I will measure my tubs tommorow.
No need to break up the mycelium daily. I usually let a good sized chunk start then shake once. When you break it up it takes a day to kinda repair itself before it takes off again. With lc i inject then shake right away and that's all it needs usually.
As for contams it looks good. You will really find out when you spawn to coir. If your tubs contam before the first flush you had dirty spawn. If not your doing something right.
Here is the tub size you were after.
That size is perfect for the 650g coir recipe. Next size up doubles it, size after is triple.
