My findings on mixing spawn and fruiting outside
    #14589352 - 06/10/11 08:08 AM (12 years, 7 months ago)

wasup everyone. So i made a monobucket out of 2 qts of spawn. One GT, the other hillbilly. I let it colonize fully and threw it into fruiting conditions. It sat for a while and took slightly longer than usual to show any pins. But it finally fruited and it gave me about 1 oz dry first flush. I consider this pretty good for 2 qts in a small kids bucket.

The fruits did not look "struggled" or small. It fruited as usual, as RR claimed. Although, it did look as though there were A LOT of mutations in this batch. More than usual. It was MS, so this could be the reason, but it did look a little fucked compared to single "strain" tubs.

Now, I could have been lucky, and used two "strains" that fruit in a very similar fashion, but for the record, I stand by the claim that it is OK to mix spawn with no ill effects. I have seen people have shitty grows and blame it on the mixing of the spawn, but i think it was due to their own error.

Now, another thing i realized..fruiting outside is EASY, and EFFECTIVE! Way better than I thought! It's true, you really can't beat nature. It costs nothing and you don't need a setup inside.  I let a mono fully colonize, then i dug a shallow hole. Not enough to bury it, just make the big cake flush with the ground. I covered that with grass and misted heavily a few times a day. Quicker than EVER i had the BEST pinset ive ever personally seen with huge meaty fruits.

Although i don't suggest mixing spawn with substrate outside to colonize (this has never worked for me), i have had great success letting it colonize in the tub as ifg it were a normal mono, and dumping it outside.

Also, i live in the northern hemisphere where the temps arnt even that how. About 70-90 in the day and 50-70s at night.

These are just a few findings and my 2c

THANKS FOR READING!
