Have fun!! I always keep a bowl and a beer close by for WBS prep
-------------------- We think we have freedom, but we're all just mice in a maze....
FYI: I stole all my pix off google! F+ PORN! Here is a shit-ton of porn by yours truly!
I have FINALLY written up a couple teks as to how SHP has done things in the past. DISCLAIMER: This is not for the newbie to mycology, and not going to work for everyone! This is simply what works for one person when other teks and methods have failed miserably!
~~~~~How SHP does their unconventional WBS Prep!! (NO DRY METHOD)~~~~

So from what I gathered; these quart jars should be fully colonized within 3 weeks? Then, I do Damien's coir tek and they should start fruiting within another 3-5 weeks? From start to finish; a mono tub will have fruits in about 2 months? Awesome.

I'd say it depends on genetics, spawn ratio, and how wet or dry the sub was prepared. I had a really slow isolate (was really potent tho) take 6 weeks to complete its spawn run, a week to show pins, and 2 weeks for the first flush to mature. That tub was maybe a little on the wet side as well. I also have a PEU tub, that finished its run today a week from when I spawned it. There is a lot of variables IMO.

I just washed and rinsed the WBS. Picked out all the black sunflower seeds and anything else that floated. Got it soaking in a pot. I will be inoculating 12 quart jars tomorrow; 6 GTs and 6 Mazapecs.
In 2 months I will have 2 full mono tubs fruiting a bunch of mushrooms  That sounds fucking craaaaazy!!

Damn, so I got 12 quart jars ready to PC. But my PC only fits 7 max. Can I PC the 7 jars tonight and then the other 5 tomorrow morning? Will the hydrated WBS go bad sitting inside the jar over night?

Ok thanks Frank. One last question. In Doc34's WBS Tek, it says to cover the jar with 2 coffee filters after inoculation. And then it says to shake after all the jars are inoculated.. but in this picture of him shaking the jar, I see foil over the lids, not coffee filters.
I'm confused.

You really only need a good filter on your lid. A coffee filter over the top of a properly made lid is pretty unnecessary. If you're inoc'ing from LC or grain to grain then you want to shake after inoc. If you're inoc'ing from spores then you'll want to wait until you see growth to shake.
Here's a few of my grain jars, they stay in a plastic tub with the lid on to keep the air still around them while colonizing. No need for a coffee filter on top

I'm inoculating with spore syringes. And I didnt do a lid tek. I followed Doc34's steps with tyvek and polyfill.

That is a lid tek  No need to cover with a coffee filter or anything.

So do I shake after inoculation like it says? Or wait a few days to see some mycelium and then shake?
