youtube pf tek vs. shroomery pf tek
    #14337971 - 04/23/11 11:38 AM (12 years, 11 months ago)

Theres a series of 4 videos on you tube called "lets grow mushrooms! pf tek" that has quite different fruiting methods than the pf tek process posted here. The video shows the cakes soaked in water at birth for 24 hours, yet the shroomery post says direct spray can "drown the micro world of the fungal structures and thereby inhibit or contaminate growth," let alone completely submerge them. The fruiting chambers also contrast: in the video they keep a large plastic container vented and use a layer of water soaked pearlite in the bottom for its source of humidity, while the forums has an air tight terranium using regular spraying. Im a first time grower and i'm curious to which method is better. I have 9 half pint cakes of cambodian cubes nearing birth. Here are the links:

You managed to find the oldest and least updated version of PF Tek.

It says right at the top of the page:

So yes, I'd go with the Let's Grow Mushrooms youtube videos. :crazy2:

There are quite a few write-ups around the forum that go with the video.

That fish tank could still make an excellent glove box. Or a great display case for one of the luminescent species. Or if its not out of the box, you could return it.

I had a question regarding my buddies "project."  He used the pf-tek suggested on shroomery, next time he plans to use a more updated version.  According to the shroomery, the recipe calls for 3 in a 1/2 cups of verm to 1 cup brf... every where else it says 2 cups verm for 1 cup brf... Now ALL of his 1/2 pints jars had trouble completely consolidating the jars to 100 %.. almost all of them had premature pinning.. He was able to save all of them with success.. but he feels this may counter some potency, and also he felt that they could have consolidated better if they had a higher ratio of brf.. ANY OPINIONS??

Correct.

Yours is a false dichotomy.

P.S. You can always buy some fish.  I'm just sayin'.

Actually what Vincent linked IS the original, the same as what you linked.  And sadly it's actually quite flawed.  But PF is a legend and will never be forgotten.  At least not by me.

I'd say Let's Grow Mushrooms is a good video, i guess that would be the shroomery tek?  i'm not sure.
