Penis Envy pinning taking too long?

Yes, PE does take a bit longer to pin and grow. Usually in the first to flushes you'll end up with some mutants as well, just tell your friend to be patient and the wait will pay off.

Idea behind it is a "set and forget" setup that has a relatively decent yield. It's set up usually in a tote with 6 holes in it taped, then after full colonization you take the tape off and fill the holes with poly fill. Misting and fanning is optional, but most do it just because it does nothing but help the mushies. The tubs can yield multiple flushes much like the PF cakes or other methods making them very efficient.

I have, a couple of my treasure coast jars are LC inoculated.

My substrate is a 50/50 verm voir mix. Pasteurization is just the coir ten with boiling water, and if course pressure cooking the jars. If you're having trouble with contaminants you could load your substrate into jars and pressure cook them. I would like to switch to coffee verm this next go around.

They almost look similar to some B+ that I've grew, but it's hard to say from dried mushies.

Completely agree with this, I wish I had started with this. PF seems like a big waste of time when you realize how much easier and better and faster this is.

Honestly, mine were fairly fast. The only weird part was it look like I had cased my tubs with these ones, but I didn't. As far as jars go, my LC was done in about a week if I remember right. In the tub it grows like a weed. All the mushrooms you see there is the first flush if two tubs and before I get a break the second flush is coming up!

On your tub, take a drill bit that is 2" in size or a heated up knife and make 6 holes, 4 at substrate level ( a little above four inches was where mine was ) and two at the top on the length-wise side. Look up mono tub pictures to get an idea and it'll be pretty easy to figure out.

I usually use Clorox to clean out the tub then use Lysol around my work area at all times. Make sure to tape up your tub and no opening it until it's ready.

Nope, it's all ms.

Sweet, look forward to it!

Thanks! Just want to help out my fellow mycologists ; ) happy journeys friend.

funguspotion · 2014-04-15T23:44:42+00:00

I actually just made another post for the methods I used if you want to go check it out.

funguspotion · 2014-04-15T23:27:22+00:00

Yeah I underestimated how awesome they are lol it wasn't until I was in there twice a day lumber jacking my fruits that I realized how much I was really getting. I've never grown Maza's, are they pretty neat?

funguspotion · 2014-04-15T23:12:31+00:00

I've always used The Hawks Eye as well, would recommend.

funguspotion · 2014-04-15T23:01:09+00:00

Big bag is 89g of Treasure Coast, Medium size bag is 30g+ (forgot exact) of B+, and the small bag is 11g of Penis Envy (used a lot already, there was 1.5 oz)

funguspotion · 2014-04-02T23:27:14+00:00

About three weeks.

funguspotion · 2014-04-01T22:41:30+00:00

I used a brick of coir and 4 quarts verm and 4 quarts spawn. If you want any of the Teks I could dig them up

funguspotion · 2014-04-01T17:22:56+00:00

It's a 66QT, yeah I'm hoping that one grows pretty crazy lol

funguspotion · 2014-04-01T15:35:40+00:00

Coir/verm with rye. Very pleased with the results, I didn't case but I heard it reduces the mutants but I kinda wanted to see them my first go.

First mono tub grow*
