Bulk Grow 2.0 - 4 Golden Teacher Monotubs * 1
    #14711853 - 07/03/11 04:51 PM (12 years, 8 months ago)

Grow 2.0

Grow Setup

2  Golden Teacher Syringes (11mL per Syringe)
22 Quart Jars w/ Polyfil Filters (3/4" hole in lids)
4  48 Quart Clear Tubs W/ 32mm Holes
Organic Rye Berries
Botanicare Coco Gro
Vermiculite
Gypsum

How I Made My Jars:

I drilled 3/4" holes in all the jar lids and stuffed loosely with polyfil. Rinsed rye berries several times until clean, and let soak for 24 hours. I then boiled the rye berries for 10 minutes and poured through a colander to cool, then dumped out on garbage bags to cool and evaporate faster. Then I load my jars up with the rye berries, put the lids on, cover with 2 layers of heavy duty aluminum foil, and PC for 60 minutes at 15 psi.

I let the jars cool for at least 24 hours before inoculation.

June 6

22 Jars were inoculated with 2 Golden Teacher spore syringes.

June 20

Shook jars up today.

July 1

30 Days after inoculation and I'm spawning to tubs.

I put together 4 monotubs using 5 quarts of Golden Teacher rye berry spawn. Three tubs got 5 jars and one tub got 7 jars, two of which I took 20mL of GLC from. I'm using Damion5050's Elementary Coir Tek for my substrate, but slightly tweaked.

For coir, I went to my hydro store and bought a 5 kilo brick of Botanicare Coco Gro. I broke it all up into 650 gram bags for easy use. The Botanicare Coco Gro is really nice and easy to break up by hand versus the Sunleaves brand coir bricks I used the first time, and doesn't contain any trich. Also, this stuff is super cheap and efficient. I won't use anything else now. I pay $18 for 5 kilos. So that ends up being about $2.37 per 650 grams.

I'll break up 650 grams in a 5 gallon bucket into pretty much powder, then add 2 quarts of vermiculite, mix by hand, then add the water.

I only use distilled water bought by the gallon from a store. I bring 1 gallon of distilled water to a boil and then dump in the half cup of gypsum, which immediately dissolves in the water. I stir this around a bit, and while still at a full boil, I cut the heat and dump into the bucket of coir and vermiculite. I'll let this sit for a bit to expand out and then stir it up. I put the lids on and let them cool for 24 hours before dumping into tubs and adding spawn.

July 3

Checked the tubs today. Only been 2 days, but because I didn't use a casing layer, the tops of each tub are about 95% colonized. Of course I'll be giving them about 7-10 days total to consolidate before flipping the light on and beginning to mist and fan.

July 12

The tubs look great. They're completely colonized and looking extremely healthy. 12/12 light cycle begins today. I'm using two 4' daylight fluorescent bulbs @ 6500K.



All 4 tubs look like this:



July 24

Lost my memory card, so I couldn't take any pictures today. All 4 tubs are packed full of mushrooms. I had to pick a lot of one tub, while the rest will be ready for harvest tomorrow sometime. I picked enough mushrooms to fill 5 racks in a Nesco brand dehydrator.

Every gram produced by these 4 tubs will be accounted for, and at the end of the thread I'll have the total weight from these 4 tubs posted.

July 25

Dry weight from the first partial harvest from 1 tub ended up being 73 grams dried, with more mushrooms left to pick. These have a darker color blue than the previous Golden Teachers that I grew a few months ago.



Today is the first big harvest from these tubs. I thought I would take some pictures before I harvest any more.





July 27

The bulk of the first harvest is dried and in 1 gallon zip lock bags right now. Theres maybe a couple more ounces still in the dehydrators.



Minus whats in the dehydrator, the first flush on these 4 tubs produced 272 grams (9.7 ounces)

Stay tuned for the rest of the flushes!!!

Buying coir at a hydro store can be tricky.  Certain brands of coir especially those used in growing chronic are infected with trich spores

i made sure of it. i know the guys at the store, and they know their stuff. 100% organic with no additives.

hydro coir FTW

grow 1.0 used sunleaves brand coir and i got 0 contamination. this is botanicare, but its the same stuff basically. but cheaper and local. i didnt have to order it online.

One more thing you said "because I didnt use a casing layer"  you dont case a tub until its fully colonized.  Casing is completely unnecassary with cubes spawned to bulk.  IMHO it adds another step which is another chance for contams

well this is my second grow, and my first one went pretty well, so i didnt change much about it. i learned what works and what doesnt, and just did what i know i needed to do.

ill have another little grow on the way that ill start posting about too. ill have 2 ecuadorian tubs, 1 penis envy tub, 1 treasure coast tub, and 2 pf albino tubs. those jars are colonizing now. so nothing will be said further about them until i spawn them, and that will be "grow 2.5" since those and the golden teachers i have in tubs now were supposed to go together, but didnt. and its not a completely separate grow either, so 2.5.

i tried doing a larger bulk grow (130 Jars) but most jars failed for some reason. a few took off. so im at less than half of what i was expecting. but thats cool. im making it work out to my advantage. im taking a bunch of GLC and im in the process of making self sealing lids with synthetic filter discs for air exchange. grow 3.0 is going to be awesome.

a bulk grow using my GLC in some slick self sealing lids that i also personally made... man, i cant wait to see what happens there. GLC is some good shit!

Bad coir?
:awewtf:
Last I checked proper pasteurization prevents trichoderma of any amount from germinating before your myc has take over.
Besides, if you spawn in open air like all of us do, your sub is covered in trichoderma spores regardless of if it was treated with it or not.
Trichoderma before first flush is due to bad spawn or improper pasteurization.

from what i've heard, trich spores can survive pasteurization temperatures. im not sure if this is true or not, since i've also heard the exact opposite. ive never had trich hit a tub before. ive only had it in spawn jars and its always easy to spot, and in my experience, fairly rare.

im about to check my tubs (and other jars) and take some pictures. there were some nice primordia and pins started a couple days ago, so ill have something somewhat entertaining to check out when i update this log.

They all survive pasteurization temperatures, it's not the same as sterilizing.
Microbial growth is slowed so dramtically with proper pasteurization that your live, healthy myc colony can take over before anything else does.
I've never had a single contam before the 3rd flush when I use good spawn and properly pasteurized coir, trich treated or not.
"Bad coir" is misleading.  Like I said, either the pasteurization was incomplete or the grain was bad if it gets hit with trich before the first flush.

You're arguing that which you don't understand.  Most of the coir people around here buy at hydro stores has trichoderma added.  That is a fact and it says so right on the label.  Period.  Proper pasteurization takes care of it, so it's not an issue.

Also, why the hell would you use distilled water?  That's the worst thing you can do.  Mycelium needs the minerals in water.  Use creek or pond water, but if you can't get that easily, use tap water, but never distilled.

I guess I don't get what you're getting at.
I said exactly what rr said, minus the extra info.
Trichoderma spores are all over your sub after you spawn regardless of whether the coir was treated with it or not.
That's why we pasteurize.

i quoted you saying that they all, as in the bacteria/mold spores, survive pasteurization, and i quoted something RR just said within the last hour in another thread, contradicting your statement.

so you guys didnt say the same thing.

where are these trich spores coming from that are all over our substrate anyway, like you say?

Rr said pasteurization "takes care of it.".
As in, microbial growth is slowed and your healthy myc takes over. 
This is the basis of pasteurizing before spawning.
Where do trichoderma and mold spores come from?
The air you're breathing 24/7.
It's covered to begin with, no way to avoid it.
I hope rr comes and clarifies this for you, since my post count is so low :shrug:

Your grow 4-6 oz dry first flush


my tubs 8 oz + first flush
Im not trying to brag im just trying to show you how much properly taking care of your tubs can effect your grows.

I bet my tubs are quite a bit smaller than yours also

He's right though. That's a good flush you've got there, but the fruits were definitely searching for more fresh air.
Here's a tub I neglected and the fruits did some zany shit.


Your holes are definitely small for that tub.

well the person watching over the grow and fanning the tubs off everyday is screwing shit up. most of the second harvest is covered in spores. the care taker waited too long to harvest so i have about 10 ounces that are covered in dark black spores... hope this doesnt add a nasty flavor to it or anything. kind of frustrating. im going for perfect fruits but this person wont do their job...

You cant go after perfect fruits and let other ppl take care of your shit.  That just isnt going to work.  Dont worry about the spores it doesnt do anything to the taste

yea the growing arrangement is a bit weird at the moment. but soon it will be me solo doing strain isolations and G2G.

i was basically just showing someone how to do it. thats about over with so the next grows will be all me and no one else.

the ecuadorians and mazatapec mini tubs are all me.

He's right though. That's a good flush you've got there, but the fruits were definitely searching for more fresh air.
Here's a tub I neglected and the fruits did some zany shit.


Your holes are definitely small for that tub.




Good lord those things look like they're traveling through a maze.

All those black spores never seemed to matter much to me. They really aren't the tastiest things anyway.

i quoted you saying that they all, as in the bacteria/mold spores, survive pasteurization, and i quoted something RR just said within the last hour in another thread, contradicting your statement.

so you guys didnt say the same thing.

where are these trich spores coming from that are all over our substrate anyway, like you say?




Rr said pasteurization "takes care of it.".
As in, microbial growth is slowed and your healthy myc takes over. 
This is the basis of pasteurizing before spawning.
Where do trichoderma and mold spores come from?
The air you're breathing 24/7.
It's covered to begin with, no way to avoid it.
I hope rr comes and clarifies this for you, since my post count is so low :shrug:




I think we can all agree that regardless it really isn't worth it to buy coir blocks that have purposely been infected with trich...?  I mean, maybe pasteurization takes care of it, but seems like you would want to give yourself the best odds possible, and all you have to do is drive to a pet store to find proper blocks (I know the hydro shop coir you speak of, no trich but many many fibers)- last time I checked pet stores were more numerous than hyrdo shops haha.  you just have to dodge the occasional conversation about your "reptile"... :thumbup:

Guy hasn't been seen from in over 2 years, probably got locked up after posting his grow op on the internetz.

Word to the wise, don't post incriminating pics on the internet, ever.

bahahaha wait, how did I even end up on this thread?  well that's a first.

although I'm gonna be honest, at least to me it doesn't seem that sketchy because pics are so incredibly commonplace on this website, and I've seen fools post pictures of way bigger grows than that

hey, i was wondering if you think i could use vermiculite and organic rye flour substrate as the bottom and top layers? also when the mycelium was penetrating the top later did you cover spots that rose too soon or did you leave it alone?

Your grow 4-6 oz dry first flush


my tubs 8 oz + first flush
Im not trying to brag im just trying to show you how much properly taking care of your tubs can effect your grows.

I bet my tubs are quite a bit smaller than yours also




UnnamedGrower, I seen your comment and seen stars, a smaller tub and more ounces? I would LOVE you FOREVER if you could direct me to your grow log, and Bulk Growing method that you personally use. Also PM sent, I wish to use your methods and MULTIPLY that by a factor of 10. Therefore, resulting in a 80-90 ounce yield every harvest.
