dp he said: Step Four: Once fully cooled inoculate the jars with approximately 1cc/1ml of spore liquid. Then set in a location to incubate at around 80 degrees.
Jars/bags/tubs/trays should colonize @ room temperature getting ambient/indirect light.
Main pinning triggers are full colonization, FAE and Evaporation off of the substrate.
Light is a secondary pinning trigger. For tropical species temperature is not a pinning factor.
P. Cubensis are a tropical species. You could colonize at 70F and fruit at 80F with great results.
Light has been proven beneficial during all stages of mycellium growth. Mushrooms like mammals have a circadian rhythm.
You want ambient/indirect light(on a 12/12 schedule preferably) for colonization and consolidation.
You want direct/intense 6500K light on a 12/12 schedule for fruiting.
Optimal temps are mid 70s throughout the whole grow, but anywhere from 65F-80F is acceptable.
Incubation is outdated/uneeded unless temps in the range stated above cannot be kept.
The inside of the jar is always a few degrees warmer than the outside because the mycellium produces heat..mycellium tends to stall at temps above 83F , and contams thrive.
Fruiting at cooler temps tends to produce denser, meatier fruits, while fruiting at higher temps will often produce hollow, less dense stems.

dp he said: Step Five: When fully colonized it is time to birth the cakes. Take the cakes out of the jars by turning them upside down and knock them out. Next you will rinse the cakes off in running cool tap water then submerge them in a pot for about 12 hours. After 12 hours remove the cakes, rinse one more time.
Dunk for 24 hours, not 12.

dp he said: Step Six: Mix 2 parts vermiculite and 1 part spent coffee ground. Then you will roll the just removed cakes in the casing mixture.
This is a great way to get lots of contams.....never use coffee grounds as a casing layer additive...just roll the cakes in dry verm and place in the fruiting chamber....never use coffee in this step.

I don't think the PF tek is really an experiment or that it belongs in the advanced forum.
