first bulk prep.....some advice would be great
    #10985438 - 09/02/09 09:44 AM (15 years, 4 months ago)

so I just finished my first brf grow and yeilded about 3zs dry on 10 cakes..I'm ok with that, now i want to step it up I have hpoo straw rye seed coir and jars I think this is enough from what I've read if any thing missing please add, I know a little vague but I'm a noob. my strain is the same as the brf grow b+ and maz. I know, I'm using spore syringes next time I'll make my own but one step at a time. the science of it all has me really excited about this hobby. I'd like to use the answer, 1 layer sub layer spawn, with the top layer 2 qts of spawn. I have a lot of patience and have been reading for about a year now I'm ready to start asking the pro's or atleast the veterans.. thanks to all that can help. I work 2nd shift so I may not respond again until tomorrow.

Not sure what you are asking exactly.

But, read up on Rye Spawn Prep and Sterilizeation most important are foremost.

Pick a Tek, Do EXACTLY as is says.  Incubate in a sealed environment at 75 to 88 degrees.  It takes about 11 days, plenty of time to prepare the next steps.

Not 'sealed', it has to breathe. And 88 is way too hot. Bulk tubs keep themselves pretty warm anyway.

You make it all possible. Doesn't it feel good?

What is max heat again??  85?

I am in a climate that requires extra heating.  I crank it usually.

My TiT is pretty much air tight and works well.  I peek/shake every 4 or 5 days, which may supply the ample air exchange.

thanks I'm pretty sure I got the spawn prep and sub prep down I guess I ws looking on advice on the tub I also live in a area where it's getting to be around 50's or so at night. In my house it remains around 70's. I plan on setting the tubs up in there own room any way's to heat the tubs maybe heat rope under the sub? A nd you say keep the jars loose so they can breath what if I just covered the holes for inac with med tape?

For maintaining humidity and temperature, get yourself one of those 7 dollar hygrometers from wal-mart, your going to want the highest amount of humidity possible while still maintaining proper fresh air exchange(FAE).

But the ideal temp for my monotubs was 74-76 degrees, with a humidity around 87-92.

My first bulk sub was coffee/coir/verm/gypsum/Hpoo

My second bulk sub substituted Hpoo for Coir. 

Pasteurizing is going to be your hardest step, you will need to do a lot of reading on this.  You will also need to utilize pillow cases, or get your self some oven safe bags, as well as a candy thermometer.

My first bulk sub attempt failed due to poor pasteurization, and my second wasnt exactly a success because I didnt properly ventilate my tubs.

Read read read.
