i've got about 25lbs of fresh stones.... does anyone have a good way of prepping these so they arent a nightmare to deal with?
i usualy slice them thin and dry em in my nesco then throw em through the coffee grinder. with this crazy of an amount i'd never be able to slice them all. i dont want to dry them as is cuz they are HARDER than rocks when they are dried and they just demolish my food processor.
unless someone has an idea of how to crush a large amout of these bastards dry im not to sure of what to do....

Tried a hammer, with a plastic bag rubber banded over the head to keep it sanitary?

this thing works well but leave them whole until you need then to prevent oxidation. I am not 100% positive but storing them ground seems to weaken them a bit over time while large dried fart rocks don't degrade for shit.

ebay has cheap ones. Its a corona style grain mill. My friend did a big run of fart rocks and cleaning the rye off was the biggest PIA by far. He was to cheap to buy grass seed for all of it and while the seed can be hosed off in a big home made strainer the rye wanted to stay stuck and the rye was the same size as smaller stones so it took forever. I got to keep a good amount of what I helped clean so I am tripping frree all summer.

just toss them in. If anything break the big stones wet to get them to dry faster and you don't need no knife just smash them with your fingers and eat a few while working.

What was your substrate and what not? 25# is a shit ton! 25oz is a shit ton! I'm curious about your grow.

If you fail, don't look at it as you didn't succeed, look at it as you would a rock face you're trying to climb. Stand back, wayyyy back, and look at it and plot another path. If you can't find one, shuffle down the way a little, a little change of scenery or a view from a different angle may give you the insight you need.
