BRF to Bulk (58qt mono fruiting)
#15836704 - 02/20/12 08:34 AM (12 years, 10 months ago) |

Spawned a couple racks of BRF jars to a brick of coir and 2 quarts of verm in a 58 quart mono. I did not use micropore tape over the holes during colonization, no contaminations. I did not use a PC, just steam sterilized. Some people are trying to spread around that you can't go bulk without a PC. Well, you can. With great success I might add. Strain is Syzygy. I'll post the canopy for this grow when it's ready.

Can you tell us what spawn:bulk ratio you used? Obviously talking about volume. Which is not in the first post. 
Anyway, keep us posted.

It's all in the first post. Two racks (two cases) of pf jars to one brick of coir and two quarts of verm.

So essentially 6 quarts of PF jars, 2 quarts verm, and one brick of coir?

Did you use a top layer of coir/verm to cover the exposed brf?

No I did not. I mixed the BRF spawn evenly throughout the coir/verm. I did not use any kind of a casing layer either.

So how many half pint jars is that?

Didn't get a final pic of the canopy but it was just short of 5 dry oz's. Second flush coming strong.

The colonization looks great... how long did it take from spawning to the bulk to being ready to fruit? And I notice your tub has poly.. while it was colonizing, did you have those holes taped off (Like sealed off, not micropore tape)... or just left the poly through the entire colonization?
What conditions did you change for fruiting?

3 weeks from spawn to fruiting conditions. 2 weeks colonization and 1 week consolidation. I didn't really change anything for fruiting. I fruit and incubate in the same room kept @ 75 degrees F. 12/12 hour light cycle in that room. (It's funny how many people think you have to colonize/spawn to bulk/incubate/consolidate in complete darkness.) The holes were covered with duct tape prior to fruiting.

Dayum, nice one. I've got some mycobags I plan to take to mono hoping to get similar results though I plan on casing. What size holes are in that tub?
