Tree Oyster laundry baskets
    #14641422 - 06/20/11 05:39 AM (12 years, 8 months ago)

Thought I'd share my 1st proper size laundry baskets with you all.

Strain: Tree oyster

Sub: plain straw (steam pasteurized)

Temps: 50f - 80f very random UK temps :rolleyes:

Each basket got a lot of spawn, bout 5 quarts each.

The yellow basket I'd left for dead as it was the 1st run with my home build steam pasteurizer, temps in the center of the straw bags rocketed to 220F so it got kinda sterilized. Colonized nicely then the top turned black, it completely dried out as the weather high 75F-80F here for a few days. SO I dunked it in the bath and left it in the garden, prod cued some absolute monsters!

The white basket was my second run in the new pasteurizer, and i kept an eye on the temps and this worked out well, with no contamination.

Was a learning good experience as I now understand 1st hand the dangers of going too hot with the pasteurization temps.! That wont happen again.

It was too hot fot this strain to initiate pinning as it needs around 50-60F but the gods shone down on me, temps dropped, left em both out in the rain, and bingo, the quality is excellent huge meaty fruits far better than anything i seen grown in a green house. What an amazing tek Roger, many thanks to your video advice.:super:

Looks good.  Oysters definitely prefer outdoors.

But how do you stop slugs, millipedes and earwigs getting to the fruit before you do? 

Anything I put outdoors gets munched.  Maybe I ought to put them up on the deck, although that's under cover, so won't get any water.  Maybe I can just water them between flushes.

Sorry, thinking out loud.
