First Grow with Mycoporn! South African, Cambodian, Mazapatec

So last March I asked some questions about a first grow using a PMP chamber and PF tek, with my strains of study being Transkei, Cambodian, and Mazapatecs, however have had a busy past few months and haven't given back to the community which I sourced the majority of my information from!
I inoculated 27 1/2 pint jars total, 13 on 2/22/13: 7 Transkei, 3 Maz, 3 cambos and another 14 on 3/7: 7 Transkei, 4 Maz, 3 Cambos.
On 4/18 I birthed them into the PMP, getting three flushes out of most. Out of 27 jars, 2 were contaminated by trich, before birthing, and none before the third flush on the rest. I know this is sort of an informal post, but I just wanted to share my wonderful first experience through some pictures.
Jars finishing up (light was only on to take pics)

Seemed that the Transkei treated me extraordinarily well, colonizing quick, with large, POTENT, fruits which flushed well several times. First finished Transkei cake

A beautiful, massive 31.1 g Transkei fruit

More beautiful Transkei cakes

A saved contamed Transkei cake in a cd case….I know, I should've just thrown it out but it still developed some lovely fruits

And proof that fungi is pure love

A beautiful 22.1 g cluster of Mazapatecs

And a nice Cambodian mutant

All in all, I think I yielded 5ish oz dry which, considering my first grow, I was very satisfied with. I have another 4 syringes in the fridge, 2 Transkei, 1 South American, and a Vietnamese that will be used for my first bulk grows after the holidays when my All American No. 7 should arrive!
Hope y'all enjoy! I couldn't have done it without the Shroomery

Nice grow.
I have never seen a FC like that before.
Hope you cloned some of that Transkei cluster...
...it looks real 
Love the Maz, they were my first too

Thanks Pirate! Yeah the FC I just kinda rigged together for the contamed cake's own microenvironment. Filled the base with perlite, drilled some holes on the top and sides of the case itself and sprayed and fanned twice a day.
As for cloning, unfortunately my living situation at the time didn't allow me, however now I plan on digging deep into the hobby.

Ur welcome. 
I was talking about the PMP chamber though, not the quarantine.
Glad you are getting into the hobby, it's a great one to have

Thanks Cronicr!
Oh sorry Pirate! For the PMP chambers, I used two 30ish litre tubs filled a few inches up with geolite and water. Under the geolite lies 2 bubble wands each, going to a 900 litre air pump which was in a styrofoam cooler with all the sides replaced with hepa filters…A little unnecessary, maybe, but it seemed to stay fairly contaminant free and at 100% humidity at all times. Although I think if I'd do PF again I would just go with the SGFC.

I plan on it! Once my All American gets here, I'm going inoculate some quarts of rye, and spawn them to either coir or straw/hpoo. I read that coir is less prone to contaminants, although I figure if I pasteurize properly contams shouldn't be a problem. Any recommended mono tub teks out there?

Here's large dose's 'ohmatic monotub' thread.
No need to bust out the level or layer your spawn and substrate like in the Tek though.
Just dump it in and mix thoroughly.
I've found that a good 3.5"-4" substrate depth works best
