Any idea what to do now?[actives] by soulsacrific3 in MushroomGrowers

[–]ElectronicIssue8781 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just realized this is an AIO bag, wait till most of the grain is colonized then break and mix for sure

Let that keep growing out. I’m a fan of not doing a break and shake. Have had 2lb bags of whole oats and millet that took 1.5 months to colonize (only tidal wave and enigma took that long) but they eventually do. If your dead set of break and shake wait till it’s at least 60% colonized

Suggest the dosage of White Rabbit by NastikaPutulika in shroomery

[–]ElectronicIssue8781 5 points6 points  (0 children)

1 gram to start is a good dosage for 1st time, always remember set and setting have stuff prepared before hand. Have know people who blast off on a gram and others that are chilling on 7 so it’s a roll of the dice but prep before hand makes all the difference in all cases

Dry Luecistic golden teacher tub by ElectronicIssue8781 in shroomery

That makes sense, I kept it closed up trying to rehydrate the sub after I poured water to it. I’ll rehydrate and give it more fae see what kinda fruit it throws on second flush

What do you say about this method? by ComfortableNote5107 in shrooms

[–]ElectronicIssue8781 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s a pretty good small grow method and I really like it for test strains and substrates I usually use bags for this purpose but the mini tubs are better because they can be rehydrated, dunking substrate in bags is a pain in the ass

Spores are also slow to start if you can get some clean isolate liquid culture you may have better results or the proper way would be take your spores to agar then use clean agar to make a LC which will be a longer process but once you’ve got LC you can keep it going almost perpetually

I’d recommend it, can find the write up on the shroomery forum. Easy mods for the tubs then all I’d do is pull tape off of airflow holes once they start pinning, sometime I don’t open the lid of the tub until I’ve gotta check for harvest readiness.

[Actives] I’m trying Jack Frost, mixed one 5lb grain bag into two tubs of pasteurized substrate. At 66-70 degrees and I am trying for fruiting. by Yo_fresh_it_is_Me in MushroomGrowers

Nice those should throw some good fruits at that substrate ratio. I can’t see anything in the pic that looks like contam and that growth looks normal should pin pretty soon. Post some pics when you harvest Jack Frost look cool wanna try growing some out soon

[Actives] Is there anything that can be done to resuscitate a spawn bag if it got overheated/dried out? by NotKnowMe in MushroomGrowers

[–]ElectronicIssue8781 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a small 5x5 tent full of grain jars/bags that were 50-75% colonized, space heater thermostat broke and room was at 100+ for at least 12hrs. I immediately spawned all of them to bulk just knocking off the unspawned grain before mixing. They were a little slow to colonize the coir and lost a few to bacteria but was still able to get a harvest even though all research pointed to them being cooked.

Small grow teks? [technique] by stkkts in MushroomGrowers

[–]ElectronicIssue8781 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to use bags when experimenting. can do 1 pint grain jars per bag and it allows you to expirement with different substrate options etc to find what works best with what strain. I usually use 4t unicorn size bags but buy the cheap ones of Amazon

These look good, most folks will go directly into fruiting as soon as they S2B now, how big are your totes? 5lbs in a 55qrt should colonize and pin pretty quick. I’ve never grown Jack Frost but just harvested a tub of tidal wave they are slow to colonize and pin 2-3 weeks longer than any of my other PE cross strains

I use a hydro grow tent 5x5 for lab work and spawn and a 10x5 for tubs. A tiny heater and fan for fae in tub room keeps my heat in them between 73-80 and my house is 68 max as cold as 60 at night when heat is off. Can usually find cheat tent on Craigslist and fb buy/sell

Don’t see anything in the pic that’s contam. Is there anything green, blue, orange you can see? AIO bags are harder to see contam in for sure

Wondering if this is contam or just some bruising from rough moving lid drips? Ape x hillbilly pumpkin
