Frank finally cases 11 tubs, a grow log 2

I was going to incorporate this into my new year's project, but that grow was so wonderful to me that I figured I'd just make a whole new thread for this one 
I prepped 11 master jars to test 11 new clones (Oak ridge and john allen strain varieties).
I g2g'd those 11 jars into 11 spawn bags (6 quarts WBS per bag).
These spawn bags colonized for an extra 4-5 days before spawning. I fell behind with new years festivities and a nasty cold 
I dunked-n-spawned these 11 bags into 11 monotubs (about 10 quarts of pasteurized coir/verm/gypsum).
I cased six of these tubs at 100% and put them back to colonizing conditions (1/2" casing layer).

Here they are, patched and fruiting:
Total first flush dry for OR-E2b: 164.6g - getting tossed

Total first flush dry for OR-B2: 148.3g - to the trash

Total first flush dry for JAS-B3: 232g - my favorite of the bunch, lots of beautiful, nicely sized fruits and a huge first flush
Total first flush dry for JAS-C1: 202.3g - also a great fruiter

Total first flush dry for OR-C1: 200.8g - yes please

Total first flush dry for OR-D1b: 181g - pretty fruits, decent yield

I cased two of these tubs at 100% and put them into fruiting conditions (1/4" casing layer).
Total first flush dry for OR-B2: 205.1g - solid fruiter
 OR-B2 was harvested at two different times, 12 hours apart:

Total first flush dry for OR-D1a: 205.1g - winner

I waited to see a few pins on the last three tubs and then I late cased those (1/4" casing layer).
Total first flush dry for OR-E2a: 214.5g - Great fruiter


Total first flush dry for D1a: 199.6g - good enough for me

More to come!

That new years grow really took it out of me, that was so much work. Plus I've been a little social butterfly the last couple months, being newly single again is great fun...and I've got plenty of info up here for people to reference anyhow 
So yeah, I took a break for a while but I'm about to pour some agar this evening. I need to get my lions mane grow started and I have another huge project to attend to for February.

Frank, I almost sent you a PM late last night. Was just concerned that you were ok and that the ferret didn't wreak havoc again!
Good to hear that you are out-and-about. Go get em tiger. You have given so many of us great advice you certainly deserve a vacation (from us).

What an awesome grow log Frank! I'm excited to see the results of the two late cased tubs. I haven't seen that many. Especially in a side by side comparison.

Nice. I've wanted to try some casings out again, its been awhile. See how they do with my PE which I'm getting about 2/3 my cultures giving blobs on first flush.
I know your not doing PE on these runs, but I think I saw on your other PE casing thread that it was helping reduce first flush mutants. Could this maybe be from the increased colonization time from waiting for the casing to colonize? I usually fruit my tubs right when they get to 100%, I wonder if consolidation would end up helping with my mutants at all...
In any case (heh.) i'm monitoring this thread!
