First Grow Log - R44 & Cambodian --IN PROGRESS

#16843744 - 09/13/12 11:48 PM (9 years, 4 months ago)

First Grow Log: R44 & Cambodian

TEKS USED:
agar's Easy WBS/Grain Spawn Jar Lid (this is how I attached tyvek)
TranscendingLife's Lid Tek (this is how I did my ports)
TranscendingLife's Simple WBS Tek (on the first batch)
Doc34's Wild Bird Seed Tek (on the second batch)
Citric's Fast, easy, fool-proof inoculation

Following with:
Damion5050's Elementary Coir Tek
TranscendingLife's One Flush Wonder Mono Tubs

And possibly LC's down the road...

Jars:
12 Quart jars were used.
All lids were prepared using the Teks listed above. Each lid has a 1/4" hole covered with silicone for inoculation & 3/8" hole covered with 1 layer of tyvek and a piece or two of micro pore tape (until my new SFD's come in & I replace them as in TranscendingLife's Lid Tek).

Grain Prep:
Cambodian: Prepared 6 Quart jars following TranscendingLife's Simple WBS Tek, leaving out the gypsum & coffee.

R44: Prepared 6 Quart jars following Doc34's Wild Bird Seed Tek to the T.

Both batches were pressure cooked at 15 PSI for 90 minutes, and left to cool until the following day.

***Neither of the batches were PC'd with a layer of foil on top!!!***

Inoculation:
9/04/2012 - 6 Quart jars (prepared using TranscendingLife's Tek) were inoculated with Cambodians MS syringe from a trusted vendor.
9/07/2012 - Remaining 6 Quart jars (prepared using Doc34's Tek) were inoculated with R44 MS syringe, from same vendor.

Colonization:
All jars are sitting on kitchen table, receiving daylight from window. indoor temperatures are between 65-80 F.

Cambodian:
-inoculated 9/04/2012
9/10/2012 - 6 days after inoculation:
All jars, first row of jars is Cambodian

supposed to be a date on that paper towel

close-ups

best 2 jars so far

9/13/2012 - 9 days after inoculation:
still best 2 jars! 2 days post-shake

all 6 lined up; left two are 2 days post-shake, next 1 was just shaken, last 3 haven't been shaken.

2 slowest jars of the batch

R44:
***NOTICE THE LACK OF SUNFLOWER SEEDS IN THESE JARS***

-inoculated 9/07/2012
9/10/2012 - 3 days after inoculation:
5/6 jars lined up

close up of some growth

9/13/2012 - 6 days after inoculation:
all lined up

fastest jar of the group

The Cambodians so far are completely out growing the r44, its unbelievable. Any ideas why the R44 jars are colonizing so painfully slow? At least they all show signs of growth so far! :grin:

Updates will come every few days! Any input/feedback would be greatly appreciated!
