Hehe, it's understandable. Straw has a soak period, but poo absorbs maximum water on the spot. So you submerge, wring and spawn. At least that's how I do it.

also while we're on the subject, i try to not break up ALL the nuggets in the poo. my theory is that at when i start fruiting, there are still parts that arent quite colonized. i imagine that the myc still colonizes a bit while its fruiting, and if there is still a bit of uncolonized substrate in there it will help 2nd and 3rd flushes out a bit. i have no facts to suppost this yet, as i've done it both ways but the first batch is just now fruiting.

He remains this way for about three hours, making bizarre noises, pretending to be a new species that must learn to walk and talk and eat, etc. And he communicates with other life forms by way of the antennae on his head. Eventually we jam a tube from a waterbong into it's mouth and figure he's learned all he needs to know.

I'd prefer to have 100% colonization and utilization of the substrate, but to each his own.

hence why i'm trying it both ways. i'd rather not do it one way, and stick with it without first finding out if there's a better way. but i imagine i will find out you're right in the end :P

Do use the double tub type method, or have constant air exchange. I like your pasterization method, however, without a large amount of air exchange I would be really worried about contams.
Have you tried/considered not using a casing layer if you are mixing in the verm? I bet it would work fine.

its funny you mention that...i was out of town memorial day weekend and i should have applied the casing layer before i left. but i came back to find primordia ALL OVER the hpoo/verm, so i tossed a casing layer on real quick and went straight to fruiting haha..my pinset is so bad they're pinning more on the sides of the substrate than on top so maybe i'll try going the lipa yai's like that, since my drunk ass poured WAY too much verm in the poo its like 60/40 poo/verm

well i mean shrooms, but i guess it works for that too.

Great report Aug, and what awesome fruits. Up until now I haven't really put the PR strain in my top ten...but you just changed that. Nice.

Thanks fellows. I really enjoyed this strain. EQ is also one of my favorites. Thanks to Roadkill, I'll be cultivating South Americans in the coming weeks.

Very well written and documented report. I'm glad you enjoyed the trip. This strain looks very appealing (like everything else you do), I might have to give it a try for my next strain. I was also considering EQ's but I think I'll go with the PR's.
I am currently growing some south americans and they seem like a pretty good strain, very fast colonizers.
Good luck with growing them in the future...

Hey Gatorade, don't underestimate the EQ strain. They kick some serious ass. The will definitely be in my top 5.

Hey Augustin, once again, nice grow, I was curious, what was your total weight after all flushes, or actually what flush are you on now, I would assume your done cause this was posted after your first grow on the 31st of May, so how was the second flush, etc.\
