Frank, have you ever tried using a pasteurized 50/50 casing after rehydrating your substrate for the second flush?




Yep, it likes to grow mold pretty quickly.

Ah, I was wondering if it would help by covering up any exposed substrate surface after harvesting...

One more question while I got you here Frank: are you ever mixing your grain inside the bags around while they're colonizing? I would assume you would.

I bought a bunch of these for my next big project, and have never used them before. Planning on using 6 quarts each & inoculating with agar wedges.

Nah, it just gives molds a nice spot to germinate on the substrate as your mycelium weakens.

As for the bags, I only use a master jar to inoculate them. They get shaken after they get tied off and not messed with again until full colonization.

I don't trust the bags to more than a single shake, to be honest. I've had a few tear or become otherwise compromised on me, so I no longer risk it.

So I decided to not case this project, for time's sake.

The dozen or so tubs coming up right after this, I will case at least half of them.

Hopefully your disappointment will be alleviated by this picture of some of the tubs fruiting :wink:



More to come soon.

:cheers:

Cheers NOTHING!  You broke my heart frank....Ripped it out and stomped it. 

I am however going to hold you to case at least half of them.  I always case, and it came from my experience with portabello.  Is it necessary for cubes?  No (I do agree).  Is it beneficial however?  I cannot answer that, but hopefully we get some good comparisons.

when u stuff ur bottom holes, do u wedge more than one balled up piece of poly to get it so tight?  some of those look like there are 3 distinct wedges (top three in right stack best example from ur pic).  is that coincidence?  cause if not, Im gonna try that.  if it is, I'm.....gonna try that

I am never content with the tightness of bottom holes, I want to stick the whole bag in there sometimes.

sry if this off topic... but i never noticed in ur previous teks the "sectoring" of ur bottom poly

I'm sure frank's polyfil is a good performing isolate, no sectoring

I don't know if coincidence is the right word, it's just how the polyfill stuffed into the hole :shrug:

I just take a softball-sized (or larger) wad and shove it in there as tightly as possible, from the outside in.

Hell yeah. That's what you call BULK! Hopefully I'll learn a thing or two from this. Must be a bitch to figure out how to stagger the growth periods on the mono's, though. And why always bird seed, Frank, instead of rye? Just a personal preference?

Frank, have you ever run an isolate test on coir/verm etc versus a casing mix of peat and verm?
