Just for fun, Cased straight grains

I just microwaved the shit out of some coir/verm closer to a 60/40 mix, it's definitely sterilized not pasteurized. 3 quarts of colonized grain not dunked and then a big thick layer of casing. We'll see what happens.

Plate number 1 variety. It's either Creeper or AA+ I have no clue what plate no.1 has on it as far as genetics but it looks like a monoculture.

If my memory serves me right plate no1 and plate no3 were the same variety so it's probably creeper


Does this plate look like a monoculture?

plate no3 dish doing the invitro thang yo!

I am obsessed with labels.  It is important to know the full process for me at any time.  I can look at any of my tubs, and tell you how many jars of grain, what type of grain and how it was inoculated....not to mention dates and times....

Once you get a process together, its nice to be able to do things and know that you can shave a few hours here and there....I am getting parts of the process fairly well streamlined.  I have been regularly harvesting within 30 days of inoculation of grain because of this.

yea, but I used it like one. :shrug: I was hoping it wouldn't confuse any one.

So for clarification it's not a casing, but it's not spawned to bulk, it's "cased" with bulk I suppose.

i know someone who still uses coir/verm for a casing and it works great for him, i wouldn't say it's not considered one just not widely used

I have used coir as a component of casing in the past with success.

Fair enough, you guys know what your doing. I just didn't know it still had any credibility. It was my mislead understanding that it had completely lost it's value as a casing.

Haha, I doubt that I have half a clue lol.  I have late cased bulk subs with straight coir with success.  I personally think that coir has very little nutes...only slightly more than peat.  I am not sold that there is much nutes in coir seeing how you can let it out damp for months and it won't mold over.  I think (With "coir" bulk) a bulk of yield is based on the amount of grain spawn, the amount of water in the substrate and the total surface area of the fruiting area.  Just my personal opinion. 

Funny as it sounds, I was in the process of running an isolate in 2 tubs...one with coir/verm and one with peat/verm to compare output.  Though I think there will be differences in yield, I doubt they will be as dramatic as some believe.

Is that the normal amount of casing you add? The depth?
It seems like a thin layer of grain, then (almost) equal amount of casing?

Not giving you a hard time just curious. :thumbup:

That's an interesting test you have going there. Keep us posted with the results. As far as I know, the reason coir doesn't contam is because spores have a hard time developing on it, not because it lacks nutrients. If you put a tiny amount of trich mycelium on it, it would tear through the coir.

So I should probably fruit this thing when I see like 20-30% of the surface covered with mycelium aye?

Trich will rip through peat also. 
Another thing that I pondered is that 50/50% peat/verm casing will be fully colonized by the end of the first flush.  Pretty much same for the coir counterpart.

Note-I am still new to cultivating mushrooms , I am making mistakes and learning from my mistakes. I will never stop learning and making mistakes.

I did this exact setup only difference I soaked my grains and it was my best performer so far.

I'm thinking I would have better results had I just mixed the two together rather than laying the (bulk substrate used as a casing) on top.

It's 3 quarts of spawn in there so if I get higher yields than my usual tub that's probably why. I often use 2q spawn and 2q sub in those shoeboxes or sometimes 1q spawn 3q sub.

This casing was about 1/2 quart which still came out pretty darn thick.

Yea, I gave it a hefty mist after I snapped the picture. I had the container's lid on up until now. Now it's in fruiting conditions.

My SGFC is full but I have it in pesudo fruiting conditions. The lid is off and I'm misting it 10+ times a day(it drys out pretty quick), plenty of FAE since it's on a shelf. I'm really just trying to give it what it needs at this point. I've got sort of a tent thing going on with a ajar tub on top of the tub it's in.

I'm not seeing any aborts yet so hopefully I'm doing something right.

cool.  i may have added too much hydrated lime to my first casing. 50/50 peat/verm. i used 1 tsp per cup of peat from RR suggestions, maybe the peat i got is a bit less acidic, so i have more casing pasteurizing now with less lime.  also have a bucket rdy to case of PR.  got GGMM for x has, and stamets suggests a bit of coconut husk fiber in a peat casing, so i threw maybe 10% in there.
ur grows keep me motivated!

give it time.  The feelings will fade, while the memories will live on.  Some things cannot be explained outside the circle at times.  I still have a whole laundry basket full of "paranormal" that happened when I was all fucked up.  Accept what you see as possible future truths, assess the outcome, and you have the opportunity to change based on the horrors that were presented.

My "overdoses" have always been spiritual and fulfilling.  Scary, and foretelling at times.  I am getting goosebumps right now thinking back to my last experience.  Knowing the inevitable losses of good friends makes it hard to accept, but there is something sick about seeing the future.....not to mention when a few of us saw it that night.  I have myself not decided if I would ever eat a mushroom again.  The things that you see and do shape your future in ways you cannot comprehend.  Take a breath and enjoy the "real" world for what it is.  It may be dull and ugly, but its solid. 

If you haven't gotten the message yet, god checked out.  Its just us and our devices.  Thats just what I got out of the deal.  It may or may not be what you want to know, but I have seen things that reaffirm everyday.

Most of the fruits look like garbage and are way to dry even with an awful lot of misting, Also from all the misting some of the stems are starting to look orange, I'll take a picture tomorrow probably, I can't get to it today. It's just too bad there wasn't enough room in my fruiting chamber for it. Oh well there's always the second flush

my place is to small :shrug:
I'm probably going to try out violet's in vitro jars or something along those lines down the road but right now I've got enough things going on.

I'm making swabs right now of creeper, Making like 20 of them in one go here. So PM my inbox and we can arrange.

at least for me yea, I gave a few people 7 grams they split it 3 ways and everyone said it was the strongest trip they had ever done, not that I care about what they have to say. I had 2.25AA+ and 2.25creeper for new years and it was strong, not mind bending, but then again when I've ate 14g I didn't think it was all that mind bending either. I just always seem to have manageable trips, not that im not tripping balls but it's not like what most people say about their trips :shrug:

My creeper fruits always are tending to be that way though regardless of what culture/strains of creeper I use.

awesome!
i got some work to do tonight, i think I'm gonna try this.  i have 1 qt extra spawn, and 2 small containers.  i was thinking of splitting the spawn up, do one like urs (grains on bottom, coir/verm on top) and then one with either moist verm on bottom or coir/verm on bottom.  any suggestions?

Yea skip the bottom layer. I would even say don't bother casing them just mix your "casing" the coir and verm in with the spawn like everyone does. I only did a casing rather than spawning my spawn to bulk as an experiment. If you want to try out a casing go for it though.

You could do
1.Coir+verm + Spawn all mixed and fruit it after 100% colonization (this is the "best way")

2. Spawn with a casing on top like what I did

or The first option and then add a casing layer when it's fully colonized and put it into fruiting right away.

yep leme find you a link

here

Frank is using a 50/50 casing layer, I would just read from "Casing methods / How to apply the casing layer" onwards. You can substitute the coir+verm mix and use it as a casing layer.

i have a bucket going like this now, except its maybe 1/3 inch.  i did a 1/4 inch twice but i think hydrated lime was too much (weirdest looking mushrooms, really small and moist caps, 2nd flush coming along though, hopefully the lime is wearing off), have not tried it with a reduced hydrated lime.  ill take pics when i wake up.  had long overnight then went to PA farm show directly without sleep!  AWESOME mushroom growers there btw got to ask a lot of questions. all white button experiments at penn state but still, it was cool

sorry it's a little blurry, The second flush is coming in with WAY LESS side pins, There's probably close to 100 pins on the top that are just coming in, I thinking this second flush will be nice.


Also I made a few tubs yesterday and had leftover spawn+substrate so I made a tub with 1 inch depth.

it's already like 40-50% colonized and it's only been two days

I guess this is the 2nd flush :shrug:

I'm a bit worried about that super white spot growing over the stumps on the long side in the middle. Perhaps its green mold mycelium?

I would salt that just to be sure. If it comes back then let it finish the flush and toss it.

That's still good, we growers forget how much 14 grams is! A non grower would have to pay tons for that much and you got it for free!

That's too bad, maybe they need some water, as you probably know that cased grains don't hold much water compared to bulk substrates.

I've been watering them a lot, that and using sterilized coir and such a thick casing layer is probably why it went so poorly

Darn, better luck next time. You could go the way of the v-tek and keep watering and fruiting it until the 7th flush.

Welp I tried salting and pouring alcohol on the spots to hold it off to let the mushrooms grow a little, next day it was already greening up in other spots so it's tossed. Harvested what I could. It's somewhere in the less than 3/4oz dry for the whole yield first flush and this second flush. 3 quarts of spawn and a small microwaved casing layer of coir is a bad idea in my book :lol:

At least now you know what not to do, and you've got about 20 grams of shrooms! Go enjoy the fruits of your effort with 6 of your closest friends!

I really only did it because I didn't have anywhere to put the spawn to good use at, there was really no more room and it was at 100%. I could have saved it I guess but what ever too much spawn is a good problem I guess.
