wanting to start a monotub, can someone link me to a tek as detailed as the BF tek ones?
    #16442411 - 06/26/12 07:44 PM (11 years, 7 months ago)

hey guys, im wanting to start a monotub mini  bulk grow, 1 MAYBE 2 tubs.

ive been reading seriously probably 8 hours today no joke, but it all seems so confusing.

i was wondering if there was a tek i could follow that is as detailed as RR's BF tek videos where i can follow it 100% step by step

i just need to find something that is FULL on detail, from how to make the substrate, all the ingredients, measurments, all the materials and supplies i need, etc etc etc...

it just seems so confusing because it seems EVERYONE does it different, and most of the teks ive found havent really explained how to make the jars, how to inoculate, or what supplies to use.

maybe i just didnt look in the right place, ive only been in the hobby a month and have BRF jars on the go as we speak, but i want to prepare for my next grow.

thanks!

You can use your BRF jars and a cheese grater, and grate the BRF cakes into the coir in the monotub. I used to do it ALL of the time when I didnt have a pressure cooker.

hmm,  so i could follow that "how to coir" tech, and use my 6 brf jars and it would work?  would i get more fruits than a SGFC like i planned on doing with this grow to begin with?


thanks for the 2 teks,  do you have a tek on how he made his jars of spawn?

thats one of the main elements im confused with,  some people have jars with spawn, and others seem to be inoculating bags??

Probably not. And it's slower, and riskier.
For a first grow, fruit your cakes in a shotgun FC.
A correct one, with holes every two inches all the way around all six sides.


--------------------
You make it all possible. Doesn't it feel good?

ideally a shotgun would be your first choice for cakes. you COULD do it with coir. if you are still learning, the sgfc is easier.

One step at a time is good. I have been doing this off and on for a year and am just now ready to do spawn and bulk mono.

Im still a noob too.

Screw SGFC, you only get a few grams dry each cake resulting in a lot of work for a sorry harvest. Monotube is really easy and produces a lot more shroomies with less effort. I would recommend monotube for main bulk grow, and SGFC for select strains you have interest in.

I found out everything for my first grow by just using search function. If you dont have a pressure cooker, I suggest using BRF cakes from RR videos http://www.mushroomvideos.com/ use http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/11916595 for substrate, and http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/8231041/fpart/1/vc/1 for the monotube. Any connecting questions you may have are somewhere in search function because I have most likely asked them or others.

This hobby takes a lot of time and patience, I spent about 3 weeks of constant lurking on forums until I felt confident with a grow and started putting teks and posts together. Take a lot of notes/print out posts and put em all together to go over. Good luck with whatever you decide to go with!

Im giving you help.... if you knew what you were doing you would know that just about any combination of inoculation, spawn, and fruiting would do....

He doesn't know what he's doing. That's why he's asking.

OP, yes, that should work.

The only reason I'm being a dick is because moving straight past pf and shotgun with no experience to do coir bulk sounds like a bad idea, especially when someone hasnt even done enough homework to know the lingo. I'm surprised theres any avocation of this whatsoever.

I usually reccomend for people to go straight to bulk. It's not really that hard, especially if you have some help.

Discouraging the kid isn't gonna help him at all.
