Experienced growers dont use the crap that you posted




An experience grower would realize that what I posted is similar to what they've used in the past.  For instance, one of the things I posted is a sterile bag of rye.  I imagine that some growers have grown mushrooms in such a way.  Another thing I posted involves the casing method.  If you could please move past your prejudices towards kits and look more at what's in the kit, we could have an intelligent discussion, please.

Come on guys, seriously, read the question.



All those links you posted are just things you can in a store but packaged together and priced like 3 times more.
Why would you expect anybody to answer your questions with, ahh yes use the "fruiting chamber with filter, a water incubator with heater and analog thermometer, 2 quarts of perlite and 12 pre-sterilized substrate jars." that costs A HUNDRED FUCKING DOLLARS when you can make a Fruiting Chamber for $8, perlite for $4.50 (a lot more than you need, too), 12 jars for $8.50, BRF for $1.50 (alot more than you need), Verm for $3.50 (also a lot more than you need). So 8+4.50+8.50+1.50+3.50=$26

So it's about 4 times as much

each of those kits is a piece of shit.

you're not going to get a pound of mushrooms from any of those.

The particular question you asked can't be answered as easily as you think. If you haven't grown before any experienced cultivator/ mycologist would suggest always starting with the BRF/ PF Tek. it's a great way of learning the basics and great for better understanding how mushrooms grow. If you're looking for a large yeild I would just reccomend getting a decent amount of jars and progress from their as you learn. don't try and bite off more than you can chew, work your way up to the more difficult TEKs after mastering the PF TEK. As for the yeild from these cakes.. it all depends on what step you're going to take. example - if you're going to dunk and roll, what terrarium, what strain.

First off casing is not needed secondly I have no Idea how much you will get from thoes pathetic kits. Secondly if you had any intelligence you would take peoples warnings about these kits. There a waste of money,learn how to make up some PF cakes if you cant do that then dont even get into this hobby.

I get around 10-13 grams dry from a single cake but not always

Your being too demanding. All they are going to tell you is to not buy kits.





This isn't about whether or not to buy kits.  This is about growing methods and the yields one can expect.  What is wrong with so many of you?  I was not pulling an attitude on anyone. If someone isn't respectful enough to read the question, or smart enough to understand the topic here, I must clarify, it's not an attitude I'm taking with anyone, so please, don't take offense, and stay on topic.

Like really, I just wanted to hear some experienced growers say something like, "Well, I could probably pull a couple ounces out of that stupid overcharged casing kit.  Which means that I could get half an ounce out of the rye bag." 

That's the kind of info I'm looking for here.  Thank you.

a cake could be anywhere from 3.5-20 grams dry i have seen everything in between. on a normal cake you could expect 7-13 grams dry if you do it correctly

I rated you 0 shrooms. These people are trying to help you save money. You should consider listening to them instead of getting mad at them for trying to help.

You guys really should read the question before commenting.  You'll realize that I'm not wondering what method is best to start with. 
I'd like to hear experienced growers' opinions on how much each method yields.  So please, if you can't contribute in the sense that I'm looking for, just move on.  Thank you.




People have been trying to answer with courtesy and respect, but you don't like the answers. Your question is like asking how much weight you can haul in a red truck as compared to a blue or yellow truck, and then demanding people read the question before bringing up that there's different sized trucks, springs, etc. 

You're not to the point of growing large amounts yet, because you haven't learned the basics.  Study, learn, study some more, and then ask questions when you can do better than asking how much does each method yield, as if ANYONE can ever answer such nonsense.

I'm locking this before it becomes a flame fest.
