Hello there,

This the first post here and I just wanted to let you all know that Im glad to join and look forward to making good friends/mentors in here

Started growing about a year ago so still a noob and need to learn a lot, thats the main purpose here to learn and share my experience with follow growers who might some how benefit from it as well


Have only 2 successful grows under the belt and 3 failed attempts at spawning grains to bulk. the sucessful grows were using pf tek style sub first time in a bag and the second using half pints

Here shall be shared with you the latest grow which was tazmanian cube PF tek style

This grow just made it half way tru the second flush before thrich tried to take a hold of most of the cakes

Here it its from start of fruiting to finish

Hey, welcome to the shroomery.

Do you have any holes in you tub? It looks like you could do with a bit more FAE.

Thanks,

No holes in the tub and I have to admit it had only a poor FAE shedule about 2 - 3 a day

I suspect this low FAE is why the mushrooms on the first flush were falling over before maturing?

And also what helped the trich take a hold?

Theres plenty of Poly around so for the next grow will add some polly fill Gas Exchange holes

Thanks!

We do not fan for FAE, this is what the holes do.

We fan only after misting the cakes, to promote evaporation, which is a main pinning trigger.

Drill 1/4" holes every 2" on all 6 sides, this will fix the FAE and contam problem.

Contams love stale air, not to mention that the perlite is pretty much useless without these holes.

Yes, and why they have fuzzy stems, and most likely the cause of your trich problem.

You seriously need to do more reading.

You only need GE for colonization, after that you need lots of fresh air for fruiting.

This fresh air does not have to be filtered, not that the polyfill will filter it anyways.

I am sorry to say that you will continue to fail and get shitty results unless research more.

Start by reading all the links in my signature....but start here first.

Right, GE holes are the ones we use in colonizing jars/bags

I used the wrong term, I guess FAE holes would be a more appropiate term to describe them tub holes, some times the vocabulary can get confusing lol

Thanks for the help

Heres a few pics of my first grow

This was a 2 pound bag of PF style sub, strain was amazonian

the cake was taken out of the bag when it was fully colonised and placed inside the same tub shown above with no holes and with hydrated perlite on the bottom

basically the same setup exept this time there was more daily FAE done by taking of the lid and fanning the tube with it for a moment after misting

There was no trich nor mediocre results

I count 10, maybe 12 mushrooms from that block, with a bunch of surface area not pinning.

I am wondering what your definition of mediocre is exactly, because that is quite pitiful.

I never said that everything you put in that chamber will contam, but the fact thet there is 0 constant FAE sure doesn't help anything.

You would have to fan that thing out multiple times per hour to do any good.

Or just follow a known tek and drill some holes.

The latter makes more sense to me.

Just trying to help, don't be so closed minded.

Oh yea, and there is no need for polyfill in this setup, just drill the holes as described above and in the tek I linked and you will be golden.

I know your just helping out man, no problem, thats what Im looking for after all 'help' so I can get better at this each time

As for my definition of mediocre well not so good/below average

I know I dint get exeptional results but
if I get enough fruits to last me for a couple months I call it a good grow but yeah could have done way better

Results I got are nothing compared to bulk/all over canopies some growers pull off which some day I will hopefully be pumping up too with the help of good folks like your self

Thanks again

Do we need to drill those sgfc holes even if we have a couple of golf ball size holes filled with polly on the tub walls?

If you have perlite in the bottom, yes.

Perlite in the bottom of a tub without 1/4" holes drilled 2" apart on all 6 sides is pretty much useless.

Air needs to be able to pass up and thru the perlite, in order to humidify the tub.

What you are describing is a monotub setup, which works quite differently....moisture evaporating off the substrate humidifies a monotub.

Monotubs have polyfill stuffed in the holes to regulate FAE, while still keeping in humidity.

all right, got it, thanks

hey by the way Ive been consedering ditching the perlite, preparing it gets tiresome plus I prefer to use it in the garden

what would you recomend for a replacement? a cool mist humidifier?

Ive heard of paper towells is that any good in pf cake tubs? 

Anither Q:
when I get ready to retry a bulk grow its gonna be spawning colonised corn to past hpoo in a myco bag to form a big block wich at the end of colonization would be taken out of the bag an into the FC

Now in this set up what would you recomend to maintain proper rh?

This wouldnt work like in a monotub where the sub provides the humidity?

Would have to use a humidifier or the good ol perlite on the bottom (with the sg holes)?

No, there is no replacement for perlite in a SGFC.

A humidifier will saturate the cakes, and wet towels just sounds like something nasty waiting to pop up.

A properly built SGFC. (utilizing perlite)

No, it wouldn't be big enough or hold enough moisture to provide adequate humidity in a monotub setup by itself, use a SGFC.

No humidifier.

Humidifiers ONLY get used when you have a greenhouse or a martha setup, other than that forget about using humidifiers.

Just perlite in a SGFC, just a bulk substrate in a monotub(the actual size of the tub).

If you want to hear the truth growing cakes is a pain it the ass. Growing bulk is less troublesome but requires more skill. Cakes require a very very humid environment with fae and the only way to really achieve this properly is with a sgfc.

Check out my start to finish bulk tek in my journal. There is a link to it in my sig
