My first (bulk) grow
    #19144409 - 11/16/13 07:25 AM (10 years, 3 months ago)

Okay well I did my first grow using pf tek and it went great. I want to start doing better treks so instead of going straight to actual bulks I was going to do a grow where I got the cakes colonized then crush them up and mix with hpoo or coir. Does this tek work we'll? Does hpoo it coir work better? And final question. For the terrarium, does the double tub tek work?

A terrarium I would suggest using besides the double tub.

That is called spawning to bulk.

What tek?

The best substrate, is a mixture of all of them.

It does, but for bulk monotubs are the best.

Five shrooms for this. :highfive:

In addition, I'd recommend doing a mini monotub or a few trays with cakes as spawn, and using a cheese grater to get your cakes down to a really fine grit before spawning.

Well I read up on the double tote tek where you stack the 2 totes and put 2 hold on the top and right above the substrate and you let it sit for a few days while colonizing. And you don't fan and mist at all? That'll work for pf tek crumble and spawn?

A shotgun fruiting chamber works great for trays, but if you want to do a single big grow like that the monotub is both cheaper and more effective than the dub tub.

So this will work with crushing the cakes and mixing hpoo and coir?

Grating the cakes is better, but yeah, it'll work.:smile:

Like with a cheese grader? RR said you still want a few tint clumps in there

Yep, with a cheese grater.  It should leave a few tiny clumps.  When I spawn to bulk with WBS I always break it up as much as I can be bothered to with my hands--with the amount of millet in my WBS, that's pretty small.

:lmafo: I had to.

Yea PF cakes can be steam sterilized. And then you're going to pasteurize your bulk substrate which is 140-160F also requiring no PC.

If you're talking about sterilization then yes you want a good fitting lid

The videos at the link in the BRF tek show you how to effectively steam sterilize without a PC.
