man im so excited, last night my buddy at work said the stables by his house have a free horse poo sign out.. so im gonna hit it up this weekend.. so ive been reading about how to do horse poo.. i think i have the whole leaching/drying/pasturizing steps down, but i keep reading that its a 20% spawn to 80% poo so would that be for every 1 jar of spawn i would need 4 jars of poo..?? my question is.. if i have 5 pint jars i would need 20 pints worth of poo... or am i just retarded... cuz that seems like a whole azz load of poo..

"The way to stop violence is not to go out and let your head be beaten in but to say, you want to take my life risk yours!" "are you sure u want to eat all them shrooms??" "yes i want to hear what my mind has to say..." remember opions are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink.

You can use more spawn to make your poo colonize faster. The amount of poo you use is up to you and your fruiting container size(s). You don't HAVE to use all of your pint jars, or you could use them all and just spawn to 10 pints of poo. The poo will colonize REAL fast.

ic, is 20% just a estimate or is that like the optimal ratio.. and how long would coloized jars of grain be good for if i put them in the fridge??

20% is pretty much the minimum you want to use for decent colonization times. As for the grain spawn in the fridge, assuming you don't get contams, it should be good to go until you have your poo ready. Just make sure when you go to get the poo, you try to get the stuff that's leeched already so you don't have to wait too long.

20 pints worth of poo is not that much. its less than 10 wet lbs. 4:1 or 5:1 ratio will give you a good colonization time. this last time i spawned some old brf jars (in the fridge for 2 mnths) 3:1, just to hopefully speed the colonization with the old myc. we'll see what happens. best of luck

5 to 1 ratio works great.
5 pounds of Tenn Stud with 3 Quart jars of Substrate...
that picture was taken the other day...
