First timer, jars kickin it off.. Any tips?
    #14316690 - 04/19/11 11:11 AM (12 years, 10 months ago)

Wohoo, this is my first cultivation attempt.
A week after these babys are all 100% they will be in my shotgun FC.
It's been 10 days since I nocced up these 1/2 pint BRF jars with 1/4 cc per hole(1cc per jar)
You can see one jar is already looking 100% thats the jar I took my tape off of on day 3. (I waited til day 5 with the rest) I was curious on how they would react.
Anyways seems like they are coming along.







woo baby I'm excited

Huh.  Interesting with the tape, times, and colonization.

Looks like you're good to go!  Remember to be patient and let 'em consolidate before birthing.

Golden Teacher,
I bought two syringes but decided to only try one to see if I'd fucked up.
My second syringe sitting in my drawer is Huatla both purchased from our sponsor sporeworks.

Thanks for all the nice comments guys I'm damn excited.
I've quickly learned this hobbies key to success is patience! :thumbup:

Huatla I had horrible luck with, but that doesn't really mean much as I was still figuring things out.

Tips: Make sure to take some GT prints once u get to that point

Are you going to dunk and roll? I recommend it after consolidation

I'd try to find the widemouth halfpints if I were you, ACE hardware will order them for you.

While you're waiting rig up some tyvek/RTV lids for whatever jars you choose to use so next time you can have a better filter than a shiftable layer of dry verm.

Just my 2 cents.

Ahh, I thought these were wide mouth because the lid is as wide as the rest of the jar.

And I planned on submerging the cakes for 24 hours after birth.



I have this tub I haven't drilled holes in yet. I planned on making a Shotgun FC with this 64 quart tub any other suggestions?

Although I'm not quite sure what you mean by "rig up some tyvek/RTV lids"

They are widemouth halfpints, tall rather than short, but still widemouth.

You can if you want, but it's not necessary. People like to get fancy and complicated.

righteous, thanks for all the input again.

no comments on the 64 quart tub? I'm just going to do a RR Shotgun FC, with 1/4 bit holes on all six sides. unless someone else recommends something different for these.

The fc will be placed on the rack in top of my closet, hopefully far away from the contams below.

That might be a big pain in the ass to access for fanning and monitoring.

A closet is a horrible place for a shotgun fc.

Then it won't be in the closet. That why I'm here exposing the noob thoughts passing threw my brain. Where would be a typical storage place in my house for this sgfc? I just figured closet would be good if I had company over I wouldn't have to worry about it.

If you need to hide it and stick it in the closet for a few hours thats cool, but typically a bigger room would be better, one that gets good airflow. Keep the fc elevated, you want air to be able to travel up through the perlite, that's what gives you your humidity.

The reason from reading a lot of the more experienced posters posts is that a closet doesn't have as much of an airflow as an open space, for example a kitchen counter or on top of a desk which is kind of the point of the holes all around. If you leave the door of the closet open, it should be fine. I personally would use a fan in the closet to kick start a draft (not aimed at the FC) and that way it would even out. I also use a closet to keep it out of the eyes of my roommates.

No worries, just fan and mist regularly. Good job on getting so far.
