WBS question
    #10425212 - 05/30/09 01:15 PM (14 years, 9 months ago)

Used Doc's method for WBS.  We ended up losing a lot of millet and what not through the colander which sucked, but we have two 5 gallon buckets filled slightly over half way each of the final strained product.  It's been soaking for the past ~15 hours.  My question is though, there is a slight amount of debris in our result, as well as a few sunflower seeds that we couldn't get out.  Are those anything to be worried about?  We plan on PC'ing after simmering and rinsing.

Second question, now that I think of it.  Rough estimation of pints needed for a tub measured 32"x30" with 3" depth of substrate?

Sunflower seeds will not cause problems - the concept that they cause contamination is a myth. However, whenever I'm forced to use WBS, I strain most of them out (along with other floaters) by hand because they waste real estate in your jars. Sunflower seeds are less dense than other grains, resulting in less mycelium by volume.

Use quart jars instead of pints, if you can. You can use quarts with grains.

I unfortunately purchased pint jars by accident, and was just intending on doubleing up for my ratio.

I've got a bunch of pint jars, and I like them. Three or four pints is more spawn than you think it is- and a dozen pint jars is downright impressive.

(But for the money and space involved, quarts are probably a better deal.)

Second question, depends on your spawn ratio. But I bet 8-12 pints will suit your needs.

I say do as many pints as your pc will hold, then noc them up and wait a two weeks and start pcing 4x that many and do a g2g you will have enough to last for a while.
But look into getting quart jars, if your pc doesn't fit quarts then get some spawn bags.
