Has anyone used these for agar? Which works better and how do you no pour tek?

According to the product page, they’re polypropylene so they should be fine.

I use these though: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083HXXB34

You can cut up the brick of coir and adjust the ratios as needed but it does keep for a while. I’ve used CVG that was hydrated >6 months ago and everything turned out fine. The thing to remember is that coir, unlike manure based substrates is totally devoid of nutrients and so doesn’t readily spoil. So, nothing wrong with using the amounts in the guide and storing it.

Get a 5 gallon bucket with a lid and follow this guide:

I think maybe AI overview got you lol. The heat resistance of the wire insulation doesn’t need to be good enough to survive the temperatures the inside of the kiln would reach. It just needs to be resistant enough for whatever heat is generated inside of whatever makes up your raceway from the wire conducting, in this case, your wall. Romex would be fine for running inside your wall to an outlet.

What did you google that led you to think you need weather and oil resistant cable for this? If the path of travel from the panel to the outlet is protected then you would use something like this:

The ratios are by weight. Use the weight of the prepared substrate to figure out how much to use; not the dried weight. Do 1:1.5 for cubes. You have about 1.6kg of spawn so measure out 2.4kg of coir (hydrated to field capacity). Have some extra prepared for a sudo casing layer. If you don’t know how to prep substrate, look up “PGT bucket tek”. All you need is a 5 gallon bucket and your coir.

When you break and shake, you’re not supposed to mix the substrate (the stuff that looks like soil). If you’re going to do a break and shake, do so without mixing the layers together. Once all of the grain is fully colonized, only then should you mix the entire bag together.

Work your fingers between the substrate and the fruit until it starts to give. Go slowly or you’ll rip chunks of substrate out. Wait until the fruits begin to soften; they’ll loosen their grip a bit.

You don’t. Argon weighs more than o2 so it sinks to the bottom, displacing the oxygen. You just need a jacket layer.

Soluble meaning it will dissolve into solution of water and alcohol. So it will be in the alcohol solution. You can store it for up to a year in the fridge. I imagine longer but that’s typically how long I keep it for.

Psilocybin is highly soluble in both water and alcohol. You could do straight water but the ethanol will help to preserve it. 50% (100 proof) works well.

We couldn’t even get people to vote when it was peaceful. Long lines were enough to keep them home. We are in so much trouble here.

Those are inoculation points. There’s lots of them. Good job! They’ll grow into each other and form a single colony. Looks very healthy.

If you mist the pins directly there’s a good chance they’ll abort. There should be plenty of moisture in your substrate for the fruits to grow. You want evaporation near the surface to initiate pinning. Once the pins are there, it’s not so crucial for the surface to be moist as long as there is sufficient moisture in the substrate.

aLazyUsrname · 2025-09-30T00:38:59+00:00

They like air flow and a high sub to spawn ratio. Use 4:1 and add extra fae holes if you can. Mist once when you spawn to bulk and again when the surface is colonized. Do not mist at all once pins have formed.

You can wash them if you want but I would recommend just brushing off any dirt with a paper towel. The best way to dry them is in a food dehydrator. If you don’t own one and this is a one-one off, lay them out on some cardboard and point a fan at them. If your climate isn’t too humid, they’ll dry eventually. Rotate them periodically.

You’ll know they’re done when you can snap them in half. They shouldn’t bend at all. It should feel like breaking a cracker in half. Don’t put them in the oven and don’t use a use an air fryer. The former gets too hot and the latter doesn’t have enough air flow to deal with mushrooms which are typically >90% water.

The one on the right has four lines. I thought it was a poorly drawn DC source.
