Finally got my bulk substrate wings

Finally got my bulk substrate wings. Unlike PF-Tek, bulk kicked my ass for a while because I wasn't doing a cookie cutter spec and trying to get moisture content right by the squeeze test. Eventually I broke down and did the cookie cutter spec and wasted the rest. Also my first bulk had little tiny shrooms that I couldn't get big regardless what I did. I think I also had a few other problems like contamination and several rye spawn that just didn't recover at all after I mixed it. Now I'm bored with the hobby and I got a life time supply of shrooms and I haven't even sampled any of my grows I'll eventually try it when my mood is right, but this was probably just a mid life crisis kinda thing where I wanted to roll around in a big pile of drugs like I dreamed when I was a kid 
Had fun growing though! Probably will do 4 more rye grain jars I have sitting around and see if my interests takes me any further. But I've always acted like a butterfly with hobbies.
These are multispore from a syringe labeled Cambodian (aka shrooms)
My grow chamber:

You can see my scissor cuts where I harvested some of them. Never had a best shot with all of them big, since this multispore:


-------------------- A bit expensive but the largest clear tote I've found. Great if you want a large SGFC that can easily do both trays and cakes. If you decide to go all out on a SGFC, be sure to get coarse perlite. It keeps it cleaner and allows better FAE and humidity.

congrats on the grow, man. How much spawn did you use here and what was your harvest weight? Hoping I can get similar results, that monster in the last pic looks huge to me!

I'm probably got a while before I know the weight. My first shrooms from this harvest haven't even fully dried yet. I used one spawn jar per 3 quart tray with 1.5 jars of coir/verm/gypsum so I guess it's about 1:2 spawn/substrate ratio.
