didn't go so well. I saw a tiny green tinted spec where I previously saw that white speck after the first day, and it looked like the outside of the bag was getting covered in a very thin coating of mold.I am pretty disappointed. Now, I am off to bother earths tongue about that 100% no contamination guarantee. Maybe they will send me a new bag and I can try again....

Yes it is so much cheaper just investing in a PC and becoming self sufficient.

it takes alot more than just one try to get good fruits
it took me 2-3, but your first success is always great success

You don't need a PC, just buy a $10 pot. Check my sig, it's easy!

its pretty hard to mess up a bag, perhaps the room your growing/inoculating in may have some molds in there.
unless your inoc techniques were not sterile.
in that case, always flame sterilize!

Ya you could get a big pot. I have not had the best results using that method though. My brf cakes always took so long to colonize. So I just went to Kmart and got a PC for 25 bucks and now I do WBS and my results are great. WBS colonizes so fast. I must have been doing something wrong with BRF tek. Just got crappy results.

i failed my first two times
this was my first success
from what i can tell, the majority of people, on their first try, don't get monster flushes
i'm assuming you had a major success your very first attempt?

lol then let me re-phrase,
Sometimes it takes more than one try to get good fruits.
happy?
ego makes it easy to miss the point.
OP don't get too frustrated with a single failure, the effort is worth the wait

I didn't have 'major success', I had a respectable flush on a little tray. But it was more than I could eat, I have had a surplus from my first harvest.
But yeah, try try again. But don't try the same thing, try something new.

Agreed. My first grow went quite well. Watch the videos, read a bit, and stick to the plan. Any time wasted after sterilizing, any hands not washed, any way for contaminates to enter is a mistake.
Keep it clean and get successful!
Also, I recommend starting with PF tek rather than bags.
