need advice for my next grow.
    #14108213 - 03/12/11 10:38 AM (12 years, 10 months ago)

I am new to the shroomery but not new to growing mushrooms. I have done a few cakes with no real results so i have moved onto a bulk grow with wild bird seed. I have done about 3 monotubs that were 78 quart sterilites. Now i want to use a 95 quart rubbermaid roughneck. Also i want it to be self contained with humidifiers. Id like to know the best way to set up my bins. so here's a list of questions that I need answers to....

1)where should I put the holes in my tubs so I can use humidifiers
2)What type of humidifiers are the easiest to modify for this hobby? And is it possible to set up two or three 95 quart roughnecks up to the humidifiers?
3)Id like to use 40-50 quarts of compost. Is this to much?(I usually do a 3-1 spawn ratio.) I have 36 jars available and i use liquid cultures.(I'm using a Cube just havent decided which one, Nepal,Puerto Rican, Burma. whichever one you think is the best to do a bulk grow.)
4) What can I add into my compost to keep nitrogen up for more flushes.(After about six or seven flushes with the compost I'm using they start to produce less fruits. I went from 3 ounces dries to 1 and a half.)

I'd say start with understanding what leads to having mushrooms.
Cakes are a great way to practice getting things right.

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

by real results i mean i get an eighth or 2 of of a cake with smaller fruits. I like bulk growing and am very successful with 2 bins that produce about an ounce and a half a piece every 6 days. Plus the fruits are pretty big. I just wanted to try a self contained system to see the difference in the fruits.
