First time really cultivating mushrooms
    #15840654 - 02/20/12 11:49 PM (12 years, 10 months ago)

So, two years ago I became interested in this hobby. I ordered a syringe and fucked everything up due to being over eager to get things done. That is a long asinine story which i dont wish to elaborate on.. But now, I am going to do things correctly, and with the right materials. Today I made my BRF and vermiculite jars. The jars i got are a bit weird, half pint but with plastic lids. I made my four holes in the lids, (btw, half pint jars) and covered the jars with aluminum foil, then the lid. I then boiled them for 90 minutes, and i plan on boiling them again tomorrow for at least an hour, and store them while I wait for my spore syringe to arrive. Im just hoping for some tips and support from you guys on this grow

just to make things clear you dont put the aluminum foil under the lid its on top of your jar and lid u only use it when u PC or steam the jars you take them off right before you inoculate the jars and keep them off for GE. Good luck ! im on my first grow too

The only reason i put it under the lid is because the lid is really weird lol. Im planing on breaking through it with the syringe needle when i go through the holes. This shouldnt cause any problems right?

Like I asked before, breaking through the foil with the syringe needle isn't going to cause any problems is it?  :begger:

Dont see how it would? You put foil on the outside of the lid too right? You should have used micro pore tape over the holes instead of foil under the lid because it might not let air exchange after you steam and cause a vacuum plus it probably will get moisture under the lid but on top of the foil and cause problems.
But good luck to you my friend.:thumbup:

I dont have any micro pore tape, but that should be obtainable. You're right about that moisture gizmo. I can see that being a problem..    :smileandnod:

If you still have time or for future reference.  The Tyvek jars with silicone injector ports a a HUGE life saver.  A PC is a must, I learned the hard way.

Good luck. Experiment and you will figure out what works for you. I have fucked up more times than I can remember. That's how you figure it out. I have never had good results with wild bird seed and always use rye. Each to their own. jars are fun to start with.


--------------------
There are times, however, and this is one of them, when even being right feels wrong. What do you say, for instance, about a generation that has been taught that rain is poison and sex is death? If making love might be fatal and if a cool spring breeze on any summer afternoon can turn a crystal blue lake into a puddle of black poison right in front of your eyes, there is not much left except TV and relentless masturbation. It's a strange world. Some people get rich and others eat shit and die. -Hunter S. Thompson
