Ghetto fruiting chamber, a cock and balls story
    #19871745 - 04/19/14 06:37 PM (10 years, 8 months ago)

read the whole thread before raging





started growing in two liter soda bottles. Its my first grow and dont have experience in mycology, but i am a scientist. Based on the procedures ive read this method can actually yield a surprising amount of mushrooms. However, most of the teks ive read never mentioned putting holes around the bottle for FAE. I mist what i consider a good amount for both bottles. I also use a flashlight (LED) too introduce a powerful source of light too the BRF cakes. Please, any suggestions would be great. its been about 3 days and I think one of the cakes is starting too show pins.

I would start by:

putting four 1/4" holes at the very bottom of the perlite level

putting four 1/4" holes at the top of the perlite level

putting four 1/4" holes at the middle of the cake

putting four 1/4" holes 2 inches abouve that

mist as needed, maybe even put the cap back on the top

edit:

Couldn't tell by the picture,  but have you dunk'd and rolled 'em in vermiculite yet?

First get the cakes off of the perlite. The mycelium will try to colonize it and waste energy.

Second get a real light for them. CFL works good, you want a daylight spectrum 5000-7000 is best

Third stop being super cheap and build a proper SGFC. That pop bottle shit is outdated and a waste

Fourth if you didn't dunk then roll your cakes you should

Fifth you need to do a lot of research on this and try and use info that is not 15 years old. Lots has been discovered in just the last couple years. Use the search engine and search for posts that are more recent.

I'm not a scientist but I have told the ladies to "trust me, I'm a doctor"  :derfase:

Forgot too mention I put a lot of tiny holes at the perlite section of the bottle with a sewing needle. I don't have a lot of income which is why I'm being so resourceful. Yes I dunked n rolled, exactly how RR did it leaving out the real SGFC. I've been fanning and misting, their is also tin foil in between the Perlite and the very.

Do you know a good way too get holes into this plastic because Is very hard.

Heat a paper clip or your sewing needle and melt the holes in. I would not expect too much tho, I tried the pop bottle BS when I started out and it did not work that great. Granted I live in a very dry climate so that might not have helped but, if you end up with poor results everyone else is gonna tell you the same thing I have :shrug:

:goodluck:

Like pasty said. I would opt for a larger diameter though like a nail, knife, metal pen, or whatever metal object is just slightly smaller than your desired hole size. Use a burner because a lighter will just take forever. Once hot you can easily pierce the plastic.

Don't really matter to me if I am :shrug: I tried what you have going on (a few different ways at that) it didn't work well for me, I moved on and grew pounds and pounds of mushies. The end.

dunk and roll, poke some holes, and put the cake on a piece of aluminium foil

:shrug:

you've already got it might as well, just do it eh?

edit:

that's not to say this isn't a shitty method, as brf cakes are inherently shitty, but if you don't care, just try to keep fresh air and humidity right and see what happens...if one actuall fruits, take a tissue sample and clone (the way I see it, if you were in the position to do it right, you would have)

Just definitely poke your holes bigger and see what happens. Cubes can withstand a lot. Just keep misting and fanning. Good luck:thumbup:

Come on be nice, some people have to use what they can. It's not ideal I admit but send some good vibes his way. And hopefully he can upgrade his setup soon.

I am sick of people coming on here asking for advice and opinions then giving responses like this^^^

He was given good advice, then he ignored it, then he gets pissy. Sounds like your typical 5 year old :shrug: Chances are he will see a few fruits, assuming its weeds cubes he is trying to grow. But he won't learn anything until he changes his attitude.

Anyway I'm done with this thread :bye:
