What to do with a load of BRF cakes - no SGFC?
    #18919365 - 10/02/13 01:21 AM (10 years, 4 months ago)

I'm destroying my SGFC...takes up too much room and is too much hassle for the yields.

Got 2 Ecuadorian (for those that are interested in that kind of thing) cakes which will be consolidated in about 3 days and 7 Maz (for those that are interested in that kind of thing) that will enter consolidation phase in the next coupla days.

Did a search but was unsure the how to make best use of these - don't wanna just toss them in the garden.

Was thinking of getting a container and spawning the cakes to half a brick of coir / verm / gypsum (as standard) chucking in a container to fully colonise then covering top with clear plastic and making two 1 1/2 inch holes above substrate surface and stuffing with polyfill. After this will keep bucket / tub inside or outside depending on conditions, what I feel like etc..


Is there something better I could do? Want minimum hassle with these - don't plan on doing BRF again :shrug:

:thanx::thumbup:

Spawn to bulk, the sooner the better.

You usually don't want spawn to consolidate so that is why I say do it quick.

Cheers hacker...I did not realise it was unnecessary to consolidate brf if spawning to bulk. I guess as soon as the 7 jars coming up the rear are 100% I will spawn the .

Prob is I have no tub to use as what I have are being used for grains. That why I was thinking about a bucket or something :shrug:

I've seen people put single cakes inside of gatorage bottles and use it as a FC.

Kinda ghetto but I think it worked lol, it saves more space I suppose.


Or you can do the mono bucket perhaps?

Do you care about the outcome? Then through them in a bucket put a bag loose around it and set it outside.

Dude if a little sgfc is too big then to be honest, you need more room. Because fruiting chambers only get bigger from there.

If you search for 'brf consolidate' and limit it to the last three years and only trusted cultivators, you'll find the first three people (EvilMushroom666, RogerRabbit, and Shea25) all highly recommend that you let Brown Rice Flour consolidate.

Cheers Captain that bucket tek is exactly what I'm looking for I think...easy, low hassle and won't take up too much room :thumbup:

CHeers Sockadin - well I care about the outcome as much as might as well get as much yield as possible :crazy2: whilst getting rid of remaining cakes, getting rid of the SGFC adn not having to make too much effort - got other more important projects going on :shrug::thumbup:

How do you know how big my SGFC is? Its 64litres / quarts and the space it takes up is not worth it when I could have a same size mono sat there. I want one space in my grow room for tubs - SGFC needs it's own space whereas I can stack monos on top of each other :shrug:

Would love to see how big these bigger fruiting chambers you mentioned are :lol:

For fruiting yes. However I don't think it's necessary for spawning to bulk? At least that's what Hacker was indicating and he seems to know what he's talking about :smile::thumbup:

Just a quick additional question re: spawning cakes to bulk - no consolidation but should I dunk them as per PF Tek? :thumbup:

I wouldn't dunk them. I would make sure my bulk substrate is properly pasteurized though. I don't think the dunk would hurt it's just that I wouldn't bother with it for a few cakes spawned to sub since the sub is going to be wet enough as is.

Leaning toward doing a bucket tek outside...which is basically a mono but in a bucket I guess :shrug:

My actual outdoor patch is fu**cked so don't want to "spawn" the cakes to that :thumbup:

It's not humid enough where I am ATM and also too many slugs, dogs and cats in a small place not to mention the problems with neighbours...the one space I have in the garden to work with is already being used :wink:

What if you spawned to a wheel barrow full of properly past, shit and straw? Then you can always just be like, " I don't know what those are officer."

If you want your flush to be great yes, but if your spawning you don't want to allow your cakes to move from the eating stage to the fruiting stage if your gonna break them up again.

Hi Supa yes I have heard of greenhouses which I admit are a LOT bigger than a 66 litre SGFC :shrug::lol:

However it's INSIDE that I am trying to make a bit more space not outside. I just don't want two massive tubs taking up floor space in my room - therefore either the monos or the SGFC has to go and it's gonna be the SGFC. I prefer to keep monos that stack on each other :thumbup:
