Just was checking around the forums, came across a post saying its easy to get free composted manure around october in the midwest
so I checked craigslist, and within a few miles three or four farms have composted h-poo avaliable and fresh aswell, some from months ago -
Do you think this is a good idea opposed to coir / verm seeing as its free?

Poo works great but is not as contam resistant as coir. I like coir because it's so cheap and easy. It's almost fool proof. Almost 
You have to pasteurize poo. The bucket tek will not suffice. If you properly pasteurize it then you should have no problem

An update -
I have processed a ton of quarts, pc been going for a few hours now -
Will have a lot of g2g to do tonight
Has anyone ever injected sterile distilled water into their fully colonized grain jar and than sucked that water back up and used it to inoculate?
Wondering what experiences people have had with that.
Thanks for looking!

That is called "grain liquid culture" or GLC. (I think it's a poor name, I prefer to call it water suspension transfer) It works well - as long as the master jar is entirely contaminant-free and you keep it totally clean. It can be tedious transferring all that water though, and all the needle flaming...

Right on, thanks Violet -
I'll just stick to a long stainless spoon wiped with alcohol in a SAB to do the g2g.

idk man, personally i wouldn't use a spoon for doing g2g - i just pour straight from master jar into the receiving jars - just one less thing coming in contact with your grains, ya know? and alcohol doesn't sterilize your spoon.....if you must do it this way with a spoon, i would PC it for best results to get it sterile......but i think just avoid using utensils here altogether - just throwing that out there, its what works for me

Well, I figured the less I had to open the jars and the less air movement would be more effective at combating contams.
See when your wabbling a jar around in the SAB it takes a lot of movement, and I've not a sealed SAB that would induce a lot of current,
Though popping the lid slowly, and carefully manuevering a spoon within would create less air currents.
Im sure if I soaked the spoon in alcohol, after lysoling it, and prior to lysol I'll scrub it with a stainless steal brush.
I dunno, I'll try both methods, ive got enough jars to do.

Another batch of WBS going tonight going to have enough for a few monos -
Found everything I need at a local hydro store, question is.. their vermiculite is horticultural grade, it is really fine, will it work okay?
Of the 30 Jars, no contams showing up -
Though I will update a picture on one of my grain jars that I find a bit odd looking, but smells great.
Onwards!

I just do not think it is as good for casing as it tends to compact more. I'm sure the pins will not have any problem breaking though it though.
As a mix for bulk sub I would go with fine.
Great, thanks for the replies throughout the past week or so, good to know someones actually watching.
