here we GOOO!
    #20534505 - 09/07/14 05:23 PM (10 years, 4 months ago)

I finally made up my monotubs last night.  I used one brick of coir, 2 quarts of verm, and 5 quarts of water using the bucket tek.  I then mixed in 7 quarts of spawn (wbs).  I'm so excited.  I had a dream last night that I was picking mushrooms from them every time I checked, and I had many more than I knew what to do with.



~EDIT~ 9/8/2014 ----- 42 hours after preparation



~EDIT~ 9/11/2014 ----- 91 hours after prep



~EDIT~ 9/16/2014 ----- PUT INTO FRUITING -----

this is what it looked like at about 10 hours of fruiting

and this is what it looks like right now, at about 100 hours of fruiting


~EDIT~ 9/17/2014 ---- MY FIRST MUSHROOM

this was probably there yesterday, but I only noticed it today. behold, my biggest mushroom to date lol


zoomed in


~EDIT~ 9/18/2014 ---- fuck it my sub's infected

welp, I found out my substrate's infected.  I 95% positive that the bucket tek failed me.  Or at least my execution of it. here's a picture anyways lol



~EDIT~ 9/19/2014 ---- Everything's fine folks. 

Take a look for yourself.  I don't know why my fungus produced metabolites, but everything's back to normal now.  If it was indeed bacteria, as many have suggested in this thread, I suppose the fungus defeated it.  It sounds pretty cocky to say it like that, so naturally I'm a bit skeptical of my hypothesis.  Am I really in the clear?

Thanks!  Good luck to you too.

QUESTION

Yesterday when I mixed my coir/verm substrate, I saved a few handfuls for a casing layer.  It's just sitting in the bottom of my 5 gallon bucket, covered of course.  Could this be a vector for contamination?  Should I throw that mix in a couple of jars and run it through my PC?

From my understanding when using coir you don't need a casing

Yeah most people here don't recommend a casing unless its PE. All it will do is invite contams.

Thanks PussyFart

Still debating a casing layer... can someone answer my previous question, in the case that I do decide to case?

Wouldn't you want to make an actual casing layer instead of leftover substrate?

Case or fruit.  You may even want to wait a couple more days.

You said you saved some bulk substrate for a casing, BUT, i would do this instead.

Use CVG for a bulk substrate, i would do 70% coir and 30% verm, more or less... (high in coir)

Then for a casing just invert the amounts. 70% verm, 30% coir. (low in coir)

Yeah, you want low nutes in your casing if you end up applying one, otherwise it kind of defeats the purpose.  The Alien is right.
