I did 10 jars of corn along with about 15 WBS. I got slower colonizing rates with the popcorn by about 2 days, in identical incubation settings, to reach 100% (even though it was slower, full colonization was considerably fast, at 80F, from liquid culture, wbs/corn - 15/17 days). The casings were prepared identical and the ones with WBS have about 3x the pins while the popcorn has slightly larger pins, but much more spaced out.

possible reason for variation could be that the clone came from a WBS casing, and so it is more suited to that media

fair enough! noob mistake

in fact it is that mistake that got me messed up for bulks for the better part of the last year. only recently after reading RR's "Notes" books did i start to understand the concept of making a nutritious bulk, and a mold hostile high PH casing layer on top.

I would recommend skipping the popcorn and getting some bird seed or rye, if you insist on starting with bulk.

I also think you should start with pf tek. You don't have to use the shotgun chamber, instead you can crumble your cakes and spawn them to coir and verm in a "monotub". Spores can be dirty depending on the source, and pf tek is more likely to give you a successful grow then popcorn or grain will with spores. At least if you get a good grow with pf tek, you can clone a fruit. Then you're off to the races.

Most people who do bulk are using agar. get to know it, it will be your best friend. Before agar, headaches, after agar, finding extra storage headaches.
