my first cube grow....MS Syringe (PES Amazonian) > Rye>damion 50/50 Harvest Pics Updated 5/20
    #14265805 - 04/10/11 07:26 AM (12 years, 9 months ago)

good morning shroomery,
thanks to the shroomery for being a very helpful reasource. roger rabbit, magdash, damion 5050, toddlo and a bunch of you other stoner motherfuckers put up the teks i used to get this thing started. thanks to all posters here for contributing to the reasource!

got some PES amazonian going on rye quart jars now. followed RRs rye prep tek and inoculated in a SAB i built similar t Toddlow's SAB tek.

i got a journal going on but will be using this thread to update pics and ask questons i have regarding my progress.

so far :

04/01/11 - prepped and sterilized Rye jars innocultated with PES Amazonian syringe

04/06/11- first visible myc spotted

04/09/11- pics taken



looks to me like im off to a good start! mycellium growht has really speed up the last few days.

thanks again shroomery! i'll keep this thread updated as it progresses

The growth looks very hardy but your rye jar contains some overly wet grains.

If you look at it you can see the darker discolored rye grains, these almost always fall victim to Basilius (wet spot) bacteria. The mycelium may or may not colonize them and usually when it does upon breaking up the jars you will get mushy clumps of mycelium, these are no good. Discard them and only use the healthy stuff regardless if the mushy grains are colonized or not :wink:

yeah man i thought that some of the grains n the tops of some looked a bit too wet...once teh colonization started up a tad bit of condensation sprang up on some of the jars and this made the top /sides of a few f the jars a bit too wet

i think i used a colander that was a tad small to "steam dry" the rye after cooking and/or did not let it cool and "steam dry" quite enough before lidding and PCing.


in the future what can i do to ensure these  overly wet grains don't get through?

do you think by tossing the "mushier" mycellium my spawn will be good in my bulk sub?

thanks.

I would mark off the area and then upon full colonization poke it with a fork and if its mushy just scoop it out and place it off to the side, a little bit wont do much but if you get enough the mycelium will not recover upon spawning it to bulk and the bacteria will invite trich in.

thnaks bro. i tooka  marker and circled the suspected too mushy spots and will keep and eye on them for the rest of the colonization process.

the jars are about due for a shake though and that will fuck it all up, howoever i am thinking that the redistribution of the wetter top grains into the rest of the appropriately hydrated rye might help prevent the basillus from ever forming? is this logical to those who have deal with the wet spot mold?

so far i got nothing but helathy beast looking myc that gets more and more white and dense everyday...the little string/ rhizomorphic looking myc are spreading like wildfire in LA during the santa ann winds right now...

also the myc just seems to get more and more beast....its growing faster and faster and dont slow down or even pause around some of the more wet clumps of rye...just keeps n trucking and colonizes the things. is this good? bad? neither?

remainder of colonzation went very well. fast and aggressive but i last grew some lions mane which took fucking forever to colonize the sawdust bag i had it in.

after the shakes the somewhat overly wet grains got colonized fast and everything else finished up very very fast. just spawned the rye to 3 medium/small hybrid tubs using a gypsum supplimented damion 50/50 coir tek. grains were very solidly colonized and not nearly as wet and mushy as they looked.

will post pics tom. am of the jars at close to 100%, but they looked like most other almost fully colonized rye quarts do. didnt get any pics when mixing the spawn into the substrate as i was trying to be as clean as possible and didnt think to trying to take pics would help any.

hope to be ready to induce pins/fruit by the end of april. these mofo's went at the rye pretty fast so im hoping the sub will be 100% in about ten days.

let me just say you are the fucking man daminoi50/50! i cant rate people yet but when i can mad shrooms + for the coir tek. stupid simple prep for what looked and felt like a good substrate...i might try to run some oysters on a few big ass blocks of it. i have these goldens that grow uout of my damn compost pile, on old wet phone books, anywhere i toss the colonized straw.

i bagged up the tubs and plan to not peek for 5 days or so, is this foolish? i know that i want to be carefull about to much airflow i am causing, but should i be checking to ensure the substrate is still plenty moist? is best to wait longer before looking in on the tubs?

right now their covered in black trash bags with the openings tucked underneath the tubs just as Doc_T suggested me to earlier, and i have seen other mention in several other threads here.

Well when you say bag them up, let me say don't actually close the bag..  Kinda like fold it over under the tub or something like that..  I have noticed if you do actually close the bag all the way and tie it shut, then there is a small chance that the tub can stall on you.. 

So I just place the tub in the bag and then fold the open part under the edge of the tub, it provides enough air for GE, but not so much that you are getting FAE..

Also thank you for the love, but pass that love on to the others that do coir too..  Like I say, I didn't invent the coir tek, I just modified it a bit for how I felt like doing it.  I use to grow using large doses coir tek then changed it around a bit got rid of a few things and messed with the ratio's and I found an even medium for me that worked and worked well.

first three pics are 48 hrs after shake, last few pics are jars on day of spawning to bulk sub (yesterday) pics of coco, verm and gypsum in there. didnt photogrpah during sub and spawn mixing as i was focused on good clean practices not pretty pcitures.

the odd dark colored redish spots on the jars were actually on the outside of the jar. you cant see it in the pictures well becuase i had decent lighting but the jar's exteriors also had a opaque grey film on em from the PC...my grandma told me a couple tablespoons o white vinegar in the PC will keep from getting this. any opions on this?

Just got pes amazonians as a gift from the works with my costa ricans, bout 20% colonization as we speak (saving the ricans for later). Cant wait to see how yours come out! Being my first grow, and using brf, im betting yours will go much better than mine =D

these have been in the tubs not quite three days they're really ripping through the coir. almost 25% so far. when i was untying the bags as damion 50/50 suggested i realized that since they were in a lightproof chamber i could use a clear trash bag to continue colonization of the sub and be able to monitor progress.  since yesterday the rate of colonization has speed up considerably.

my hepa flow unit wont be finished until the end of next month so until then i'll just keep printing and making syringes off the amazonians. i already got the filter itself so im just waiting till i got the $$ to finish the box and get my fan setup. stonesuns flow hood tek = awesome

im liking the speed on these PES amazonians, so im going to try and clone them to agar. im not sure if i'll end up with fast culture as these are from a MS syringe but it gives me an excuse to get myself in to agar work :sun:

i am soaking rye right now for some puerto ricans and costa ricans i will inoculate tuesday.

motherfucker! peeker into chamber where tubs are this morning. sons of bitches are over 50% colonized on top already. i did the damion 50/50 coir tek and saved a bit of teh sub to sprinkle over the top and the un spawned top later is already at least 50% on all tubs, this shit is trucking along right fast!!!

if colonization continues at this speed will probably iniate fruiting three days or so AFTER 100% colonization. a bit of consolidation time will only ensure the parts i cant see are fully colonized and give the myc time to get denser and stronger and whatnot.

im exctied. not to toot my own horn or anything but i think so far im kickin ass and taking names.

almost at 100% colonization. scary fucking shit. maybe its just becuase i have never grown cubensis but im startled at how quick this shit is smashing through the sub.

shiitakes take like 45-50 days for me (colonization goes fast but i wait for the brown "bark" before fruiting) and lions manes fucking forever. Oysters have always been fast and easy for me but this cubensis shit is like instant gratification.

cubensis has always been my fav. mushroom to eat (i mean dont get me wrong risottos are bomb but tripping is better) and are now def. my favorite to grow. its like they really really want to be here...growing..at my house for me to eat:mushroom2::cool::mushroom2:


these are going in mini hybrid tubs A LA Doc_T. 27 q sterilites. how long would ya'll reccomend consolidating the sub? i was going wait for three days or until it has stopped getting denser and denser.

Tubs now on day 9 of substrate colonization. see pics. probably begin fruiting in a day or two depending on how long it takes to thikcen up./ they apper 100% colonized but i want the lighter spots now to thicken up a bit right?

pics are only of one of the mini mono tubs but all look pretty much the same at this stage. everything was done off of damion 50/50 coir tek with a thin layer of unspawned substrate over the top.

i plan on wax paper "casing" during pinset when i do initiate fruiting

Birthed all tubs on tuesday. after initial way heavy handed misting some of the super cottony myc brusied a bit and i freaked out but it didnt spread at all so i kept misting and fanning...today i saw my first pin!!!  no pins at all during fanning and mistng before work, and at 1 when i came home to fan/mist i saw a pin!! the rest of the knots are looking to have gotten denser in the last 24hrs. got knots everywhere hopefully they'll be a fuckton of pins tom!

i guess it was a recon pin...no more pinning until this morning when two of the three tubs had a few pins and a lot of little primordia blobs. the one tub the has no baby pins yet has mad blob action going on.

will get pin porn pics in a day or so when we see if i fucked my pinset or not!

I have that exact model of tub in that exact hole setup. Same hole pattern in lid I assume?

I find it hard to keep optimal rh for pinning in it. If you notice the pins in the center drying up, or being smaller than the rest, toss down that wax paper you were talking about.

yeah man thats what i had going on for a day or so at the beggining...then i busted out the wax paper about 6 days ago and its been mad action since. today i counted so many baby pins i just stopped counting after about 50!

i ended up slapping some tape over the holes on the lids as even with the wax paper i found it hard to keep nearly 100% humidity without having to mist way too much... mow with the holes tapped up and the wax paper im seeing mad primodia and pins forming over th elast day.

been fanning at least five times a day, misting 3 or 4 depending on how dry the sub. looks....i really need to get some more pics up but keep leaving my camera at work. i'll be sure to get it back for the pinset pics...

I taped up the top row of holes and the holes on the lids on mine also.

I keep a fan on tho.

Be careful u don't stifle them too much. You can have a great pinset that turns into midgets and aborts if you aren't careful.

Don't rely on manual fanning. Make sure the tub is getting enough air all the time on it's own.

thanks anonjon.

i moved a fan from a cannabis grow gear stash i have (pot growers never go anywhere without backup exhaust fans) and setup a nice even breeze in the mushroom room. i will still manually fan the tubs at least 5x day (when i say i have been fanning i have been taking a small 200cfm axial cooling fan and running it into the tub for a minute or so) and continue with the misting when needed.

i plan on keeping the wax paper on until the caps start to open up...no harnm in it as long as i change it frequently right?

no harm at all. wax paper stays fresh for several days, parchment paper a little longer.

yeah i switched to parchment a few days ago actually, only becuase i ran out of wax and had a big ass foodservice size roll of parchment i brought home from work for some reason.

so i made a serious newbie blunder this morning. during fanning (i still feel fucking stupid about this) I DROPPED a fan on one of my tubs. stupid stupid shit i know, but i just grabbed it up right fast and it only damaged a maybe 4" square section. i was pissed at my self man..i just sprinkled a bit of damion 50/50 mix i had made up for some new tubs over the damaged spot and went about things as normal. I blame this sour diesel x AK47 i was smoking...not wake and bake cannabis i should have stuck with a lighter headbuzz sativa and left the drooling retard weed for after work.

more primordia are up...have a few clumps that are looking nice and dense.

my Puerto rican jars are picking up speed and i look forward to something to do with them....going to try these tubs again, or maybe some buckets.

thats the cool part about this mycology shit doc_T. i got mad syringes on the way and plans for em all.

Mycology = crack!!!

pink oyster baskets on tap for the next week two...some of my shitake logs are getting a soak and cold shock

being a straight up ganja grower i am amazed at the multi-tasking that mycology allows me to get away with. also growing the ganja is my favorite thing ever...but mycolocgy is way easier to get serious with. i already foresee a flow hood build being finsihed and some agar in my future.

ex: there is just no way i could run two or three of my cannabis strains in the same hydro table...i just couldnt do it. the have diff. nutrient reqs, growth timelines, growth patterns, etc. ....

but i got like three different kinds of cube jars and gigantic PF blocks rolling all in the same conditions!! a cube is a cube...great shit right there.

Agar is a lot easier and cheaper than it seems.
Flowhood is great but even a glove box makes it easy to use agar for some amazing things.

yeah i already have a SAB made up a la Todd_lo's tek. have been innoculating from my MS syringes in it.

is fucking around with agar and/or G2G transfers doable  with realistic proabillity of success in the SAB?  My flow hood wont be finished for at least a month, as i need to save up some $$ to get a real nice Can Fan for it.

I already have a 2x2 cambridge HEPA filter for the flow hood, but i simply will not use one of my Can Fan blowers for the flow hood as i have at all time (within the last ten years anyway) kept an exact backup of my cannabis grow rooms lighting, air, and hydro systems and that would not be so if i pulled a "neccesary" fan from the backup stash.

if i ordered some Agar stuff (agar of course, petris, tools, etc) could i be playing with it and cloning fruits and shit from my flushes off these first tubs?

I am a nerd w/ this outlaw biology shit and been playing with cannabis genetics for a very long but mycology seems to be a far less conspicuous and just as fun outlet for my strange creatvie urges

I don't have a flowhood and don't expect to get one. :shrug:

Edit- also, get agar locally for cheap. And pf jars are a great sub for petri dishes, on a small scale.

cool....im gonna call up everything mushrooms and get some agar  and gear on the way!!

they have the basic agar kit that gives me a choice between ME agar and Potato Dextrose Agar.....does it matter which one i get?

also goin to read up on the G2G stuff and try and do a clean G2g with one of the PR jars that should be ready in a few days.

got to love the customer service there...will be bringing my camera home tonight and will snap some pics of my tubs.

harvested my first cubes today!!!

a its a MS they're all comming at different times, but last night none had any stretched veils and this afternoon when i come home for lunch some funky black powdery shit was on top of the smaller pins underneath the matring ones....checked and the viels had split the black funky powder on the smaller ones caps was spores!! wet weight in at 58 grams and these were barely 5% of the totals and just the earliest maturing.

you are all a bunch of crazy bastards. mycology is my new favorite hobby.

went to sleep last night with pins that looked like little peni (yeah that is the grammatically correct pluralization of penis) and this morning tons of veils had broken some more had spored all over the place. spores are fucking messy and i picked a giant pile of cubes!!!

i stopped recording wet weight after 300 grams becuase i just dont give a fuck. almost all of these first flush will end up being gifts to people and i will have more than enough for me for a while...

THANK YOU SHROOMERY!!!


left my fucking camera at work all last week and whatnot but i got it home now and will get ya'll some pics of the tubs as i am going in for another harvesting session in a couple hours.

after i pick the last of the pins that matures (had only 2 aborts so far) should i left my tub substrate cakes dry out a bit before soaking them or can i go right from picking the last of the mature fruits straight to a soak for the next flush?

how long do ya'll usually soak your monotub substrates for before the second flush? with my shiitake blocks i soak em overnight, but those are hardwood sawdust and chips, not damion 50/50 sub....

English is such a clusterfuck of greek and latin...
from: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/penis

Quote:

pe·nis
noun \ˈpē-nəs\
plural pe·nis·es also pe·nes\ˈpē-(ˌ)nēz\
Definition of PENIS
: a male erectile organ of copulation by which urine and semen are
discharged from the body and that develops from the same embryonic
mass of tissue as the clitoris

Origin of PENIS
Latin, penis, tail; akin to Old High German faselt penis, Greek peos
First Known Use: 1668




I have one in my mouth pretty much every day,
so I should know...

Edit: too busy being funny to be helpful...
      Coir monos don't need to be dunked as long as pf cakes.
      4 hours should be plenty.

im soaking the monos tonight and will be starting fruiting conditions for the second flush tomorrow.

i accidntaly broke one of the big tub cakes when i was turning them on sides to get of the aborts on the sides...i knew it would have healed and fruited ok, but i was feeling all mad scientist and used it to start an outdoor project. i basically made a big ass damion 50/50 coco batch and broke the block up and mixed it in with the new 50/50 batch and stuck it in a hole in a nice shady moist spot...then i topped it with an inch or so of straight verm.

i will keep it moist and see what happens...neeed to make room for some Puerto Ricans anyway

I go about 6 hours unless i forget and they go howevermany hours...after about 12 hours it starts gettin iffy..

Soak time depends on the sub. Some hydrate a lot faster, straw for example. And medium coir hydrates faster than fine coir. And vermy subs hydrate faster than not-so-vermy subs...etc...

You'll notice it's heavy when it's done.

Tnanks  anonjon! you the man! after your previous posts re: FAE and pinset i really jacked up my air circulation when not manually fanning and did wonders for me.


i soaked the blocks last night for about 4 hours and they were noticeably heavier and certainly soaked.

i just soaked em in the tubs and wiegh em down with some cookbooks i put in big ass ziplocs.

i put them straight back in FC this morning after giving them the night after soaking the recover a bit.

i have been fanning, but not misting as i feel there is no need for the da and maybe tommorow. being freshly soaked i dont think spraying would do anything at all. as soon as the surface starts looking a bit dry i'll get back at em w/ the mist. been fanning as usual (at least 5x per day at least 2 minutes per tub each fanning)


--------------------
I am looking for any shiitake strains, any oyster strains, and lions mane cultures. i got cool edibles to trade.



"Mycologists on the other hand grow for the love of growing.  They want to experiment with various species, substrates, and fruiting environments. They'll move on to isolate strains, attempt hybridization, and in general treat cultivation as an artform, rather than a chore that must be performed as a means to an end.  They'll work twice as hard for a ten percent gain, just for the love of perfection..."
