timothy hay---question???
    #1750994 - 07/26/03 03:27 PM (20 years, 8 months ago)

ok people say not to timothy hay because it contams easy!!! is that because it is still green w/ nutrients??? Then wouldnt it be a good idea to sun bleach it until it turns tan and thus be similar to the likeness of straw??? also what exactly is timothy hay---grass??? -----------ONE! :stash:

I have heard that yout dont want to use hay period because the seeds are very easy to contaminate because the things dont die with pasturization? I hope this is correct. Just use straw which is the leftovers of the stalks after they harvest the grain or whatever with very few if any seeds.

yes, timothy hay is grass, but also contains straw .
seeds and grass leaves need to be cleaned out because they contain so many endospores .(this would be a big pain .)
i have heard of people getting results with timothy hay by PCing it .
but, haven't seen any vary good results .

johnnyr if you didnt want to post on this question---you shouldnt have posted just bitching about someone asking the same question!!!--- you should have been a bigger man and ignored it!!! ----but thanx much anyways----the search did not reveil anything about "sun bleaching"" timothy hay"!!! so i guess that is bad advice on your part??? and just because someone has 15 posts dose not make them a newbi!!!

my dog uses timothy hay,remove the seeds,pressure cook it for 1 hour @ 15psi or just boil it for 1 hour let it sit for 24 hours and boil it again for 1 hour.works like a charm and you can get 3 to 4 flushes of it.i would rather use wheat straw but i havn't found any yet.i would imagine straw wouldn't contaminate as easy,but i havn't had alot of contam problems with the hay.maybe lost 3 out of 10.the more grain you use to spawn the better the 2nd and 3rd flush will need those extra nutirents help it out alot.i actualy got 4 flushes but the 4th was so shity i didn't count that one.
