The biggest thing in this hobby that can help you succeed really is attention to detail. Just try and stay as focused and calm without getting too excited while approaching everything, follow tek's to a t and go into everything armed with the proper knowledge and you will come out successful just about every time.

I absolutely know how hard it is to try and contain some of your excitement early on because you're so excited to enjoy the fruits of your labor.

Measuring out the holes I need to drill for the SGFC today and drilling them. If only I had a better marker, this one keeps smearing! haha. Nothing like being productive on a day off though. I'll post pictures later when I'm done. Take care everyone and have a safe holiday!

4 cubic feet of vermiculite for $30 seems like an average price to me.





oh shit, is it? my bad. i think i dropped 15 dollars on perlite in the beginnign for my 72qt FC. i found it at a local gardening joint. i still have a bag left over that i never used, because it would have been too deep.

anyhu, sorry ceasar, i hope that really is a good deal, it just sounded goofy to me; just like how perlite doesn't fall through the holes. :willynilly:



No harm done. I was just sharing my experience, and I feel like the money I spent on the Miracle Grow perlite was waste--grainy and crummy. YMMV. Oh, and I am, admittedly, silly.  :ooo:

Temper your enthusiasm when you go to drilling holes. Take your time and be somewhat gentle. That plastic will crack on you if you aren't careful. (Yes, more personal experience.  :facepalm3:)

A good sharp drill bit and having your drill on the right settings will make it so you don't have to apply hardly any pressure. Caesar is right though, I've seen it all too many times around here.

Oh, I know. I have to work with drills at work quite often. I've made one small crack, but nothing that's actually horrible (didn't even break all the way through) and a hot glue gun can't fix! Patience is a virtue, keep having to remind myself that. I'm breaking it up into small portions throughout the day (mainly because I keep getting too stoned lol). I'm also using my last full syringe to inoculate some other jars I just got done sterilizing. (Side question: I stored them in a plastic baggy in a shelf in the refrigerator, is that sufficient? I will wipe it down with alcohol and of course flame sterilize the tip with my alcohol lamp) Trying to take full opportunity of this holiday weekend, plus I get better with each attempt! I've also been keeping a few unsterilized substrate jars somewhere far away from my good ones so I can study what kind of contaminates could grow. I'll post pictures if anything develops, I figure that could be somewhat useful for others, no?

If you're talking about storing your syringe in a bag in the fridge then yes you are fine, I put mine down in the crisper though far from the top of the fridge since my wife likes to crank up the fridge whenever she puts new groceries in and sometimes stuff at the back of the fridge will freeze which might kill your spores.

Made a few mistakes, but I'm still proud of my work lol.


Not going to actually set it up until my consolidation period (provided I make it that far). Opinions welcome, as always!  :biggrin:

I'd like to think my jarwork is improving, too. :p


EDIT:
1) Warning: starting off the day with a bowl could lead to short term memory, and you may forget to actually post the pictures essential to your post.
2) Pictures weren't showing up when you tried to zoom in, should be fixed now.
3) I have no idea what's going on, but at least the thumbnails work, lol.
