I personally do not own a microwave using radiation waves to heat my food worries me just as using a petroleum based product does. I do have quite the large carbon footprint but I try to reduce it in anyway I can. I like bulk I will not say anything bad about what you prefer violet but I personally prefer my method. Maybe you should start your own grow a long mail out the spores with the understanding all participants will use your methods just a suggestion violet instead of trolling other people's threads prove it and you will be more successful.

I think the community has a little more appreciation for people who do grow along and send out loads of spore prints.
At least I know my thread is being watched.

My creepers have been slow going only because it's been so cold I'm sure. Really hoping for a g2g soon this will be my last bulk until I sell my house and am cozy in my new one hopefully they will finish out in time!

I totally agree with this! Giveaways of any kind are much appreciated by the shroomery! Most of my trade ratings come from the blue oyster giveaway I hosted a while back. Plus it's really awesome to see people growing the same cultures you are, I love hosting giveaways more than I enjoy being a recipient of them honestly!

on a bright note despite using the flash hydration prep to a T and thinking the cups came out a bit wet they appear to be colonizing just fine. I used 3 big wedges per container and shook the fuck out of them so I wouldn't be surprised if they got to 100% in less than 10 days.

speaking of fotos.
 this is the third cup and jar pair, not quite finished colonizing, beside one of the two tubs i spawned with equivalent pairs this evening to two quarts cvg. decided to just combine the cup and jar instead of posing another bulk to cake comparison. think the substrate is too deep? those pairs were noc'd 2/23, so 18 days ago, but they were done colonizing a day or two ago. so about two and a half weeks. how's that? not great i guess, but ok for me.
another interesting thing i noticed during spawning, which i'll try to fotograf on the third tub, is that the grain spawn between the cup and jar was noticeably different colors. not so much that you'd notice without a side by side comparison, but when i poured the cup on top of the rest in the tub, well, wait for the pics. tough to describe.
 even though i got the above on my first attempt at this cups method, i'm about done with it for now. just so tired.
nice to see everyone. oh, and am i disqualified for not growing along from the same spores?

here's the grain pic:
 guess it's not so profound a difference, but there's a subtle difference in the color of the spawn from the jar compared to that from the cup. meaningless i'm sure.
and my three mini tubs. first two spawned three days ago, and moving right along. the third spawned today. i think i'll try the late casing technique and see how it goes.

nice! i like those containers too. and good job on WBR prep! i've only pulled it off once but urs looks way better than mine did. but when i spawned it to coir it TOOK OFF more than grains. also noticed that with brf as spawn. its quick.

The pp5 with the 6 cultures from this thread are looking like they're pretty close to 100%. The other ones that are not for this thread but still have creeper variety cubes in them should be pinning any day. I'll do pictures soon I promise.

the pp5 cups look nearly 100% but not "fully colonized" if you know what I mean. I'll take a picture but the condensation is so much that it's hard to see through the plastic.
