2015 1st monotub grow log WBS 66qt *UPDATED w/ PICS 2/28/15*

1/1/15 Following Franks 12 Step. I decided to start a grow log to keep all my pics, questions and help from you guys all in one place. Made my jars last night.
1/2/15 Soaking Wbs now. After adding the gypsum to the soak it made the water look dirty again, as in the pic below.. it was clear. Did I add too much? I plan on soaking till this afternoon where I will bring to a simmer and dump right away to strain for a hour or so until the seeds leave no sign of dampness on some toilet paper. Then I'll load my jars 2/3 and pc for 90 min at 15 psi. I'll be following Frank's 12 step tek as close as I can.     
1/3/15 inoculation
1/8/15
  

1/15/15 Shook my jars
1/17/15 Two days after the shake

1/19/15 wOAh 
Got too caried away lost track of dates.. today is 2/26/15 here is my first mono pin  part of a first flush and harvest...     Set up kinda like
While these colonize.. old pic, now 3 of these are in the fruit room. 
Think this is a second flush. 
BAM best thing Ive ever done 2/28/15 so at the end of 2 months this..

I wouldn't just use polyfil for your lids...make lids with injection ports and proper filters....

I'll do that next time. It's okay for that soak water to kinda look dirty after putting the gypsum in it?

yup 
and polyfill lids will work. an injection port is a good idea if your going to inject spores.

So I'm drying my wbs
There's some stuff in there that looks like oatsmeal.. is that because the corn simmered to hot? It was only near the bottom of the pot. What to do with this? Can I use it anyway?

Yea that's my plan next time. Plenty of people on here just use polyfill with foil on top, so I'm sure it'll be fine if I can get my moisture content right.
Wbs is taking longer than a hour to get dry. One of my pots had a lot more in it than the other. I'm sure that's fine unless someone tells me other. The wbs doesn't look so funny any more either.

Yep rinsed it forever. It was clear before I dumped gypsum in it. By the time it was done drying it didn't look like that.
Having trouble keeping my pc at 15psi. As soon as I take it off high it drops pressure. Presto 23qt. I think it'll stay there on med hi. Is it normal for it to spin and sound like it's boiling the whOle time? Will 14psi fuck it up?
 that's what my gauge and oven settings look like.
I don't wanna blow up. Never used one before.

hehe, no 14 psi is fine. less psi = add more time.
but what the hell is the small brown/grey stuff here? looks like wet sand..

I have no idea. Reminded me of brf. As I turned it and shook it to dry it went away..
I've never done bulk... I have no idea. Prob something that was in that brand seed.
My jars before I loaded them in the pc.
 WBS was messy too. Measured out 19 cups and was only able to get 8 1/2 jars full. Will that mess with measurements much later? I'm guessing no but wanna hear pros.

every time I do WBS I will notice it double in size no matter what units of measurement as long as their the same you initially compared with but will double at about 45% to you first measuring out the dry seed
-------------------- should I start this with a ton of obscenities?

Yea it doubled in size but I spilled a bunch in drying it.. already know a few things I'll do differently to prepare next time. Prolly whole oats.
Is there a chance I could burn up all this water keeping my electric stove on med hi? I filled it to the line.

Looks like clumps of gypsum. Could also be WBS crud, I've seen lots of that you can just ignore it either way IMO

Thanks that's the plan.
I guess I'm just freaking out over nothing when it comes to this pc.. haha. How long should they cool? Can I go to bed after and inoculate whem I wake and bake? About 10 hours after?

Woke up and knocked em up. Some jars were really hard to break them up. The middle jar in this picture looks like there is fog in it. Watch em for days and maybe start over?

Looking good, hard to tell maybe just a little wetter than I see typically. Keep an eye on them, all spots should be very white.......you've got a good start from what I can see.

I soak my WBS at room temp for 24-30 hours, rinse many times....until the water is clear. No need to simmer, heat etc. I let them dry overnight, sometimes use a towel or pillowcase before PC. Yours look a little wet as mentioned. I would shake @ 20% colonization. You will find a method that works best for you. Trial and error. Toss them if they smell funky. Good job.

Shook my wbs jars today. Prepared Frank's style with corn. Shook so easy. Took 5 min or less to shake em all up. No contams Yaya. So I have 8 1/2 quart jars at the moment. I tried to make 10 but lost too much wbs straining it. I'm a noob. I think my plan is to use 5 of the spawn jars to make a single 66 qt tub and use the other 3 and a half to knock up 24 more jars. And do 5 more tubs on top of the single. I have a sgfc (I'll post pics when there's something worth seeing) going at the moment too with 9 cakes in, 13 more in its consolidation period and 10 more that just started showing myc so I think I'll be good to just get this one monotub going to learn off of while I prep the others. I have two pcs and just to pic up some agar now.

best was to strain is to get a large bowl and a plate to fit over it....tip the bowl and the water comes out and the seeds stay in the bowl...

Dry them enough that they wouldn't leave moisture on your hands. I would toss them around in my strainer and knock some out. I'm sure I just need to practice. I'm cool with that.

Two days after the shake. Now I'm just gonna leave em alone till they hit 100%, then I'll prep the cvg, then the next day pour tubs.. I believe.. I havnt read the tek in a few days.

Your spawn looks like it's recovering really nicely. What kinda sub are you going with and how many quarts of spawn per tub are you planning?

I'm following Frank's 12 step. I have 8 and a half of these. I was gonna use 5 per tub but came up short. I could half it and use 4 1/4 quarts spawn to 1 brick coir 2 qt verm and handful of gypsum. Or just do one tub and use 5 or more if recommend by someone before then.. and g2g the rest. I have 12 more quart jars to make and grain for days. I've already drilled holes in my tubs.

Yeah you could either use 4qts for 2 monos and have 1/2qt left for a few G2G jars or a GLC and then expand from there. You could make 1/2qt into 12 jars, but there wouldn't be many inoculation points per jar, so it would take longer.
Or you could use 6-7qts for 1 mono and G2G the other 1.5qt into all 12 jars. Personally that's what I would do.

6-7qts spawn to 1 brick and 2 qts verm performs way better than 4 qts in terms of colonization times (which reduces chances of contams getting hold) and yield IME
Lowest I'll go is 5 qts or else I'm wasting my time

How long after they are at 100 is it okay to leave them. Like if one gets done 6 days before another it's okay? I see teks say spawn right away, no need to consolidate. I just don't want to cause invitro, but want to wait for to do work with them at the same time.

Just spawn them before they start to in vitro. I've let jars go 2+ weeks after 100% and they were still fine, I've spawned mycelium with pins forming in vitro It will still work, it's just better to not stress the mycelium out like that

it should be allowed to take the time it needs! if it takes more than 10-14 days your spawn wasnt clean. its just CVG right? still wait for the surface to be 100% white all over! looks good so far, only 3 days thats great!

I've seen a bunch on here that people say stuff is 100% that still looks kinda brown on spots. since I've never done this before I'll post pics till someone says fruit.. unless I see pins first then I'll put it into fruiting.
How quick can ones tub get to 100%
Yes it's 5 quarts wbs>cvg

4 days isnt unheard of with ratios like yours, but dont skimp on anything now just let the mycel knit together into 1 big brick of a network!
Maybe you have seen pics of people who have cased their tubs?

I'm down to wait. I have several other projects to mess with.
I've seen people wrap it up for 10 days. I've seen all kinds of stuff on this site. That's why I'll post pics and get help till I get my bearings. Shit smells wonderful. Maybe I'll be able to fruit by the weekend.

if the last pic is 3-4 days after spawning I'm sure you can fruit even before that!

I would suggest waiting another day or two. On my last 66qt tub with ratios like yours, this is what my sub looked like when I induced fruiting conditions. This was after 7 days of colonizing.

Should I case it and fruit it at the same time or wait a few days in between?
On a side note.. I broke a fully colonized master jar on the couch today trying to break it up for a g2g.. good thing I had a other one.. but shits all in the couch, seethe carpet.. my chick's purse and bags.. hahah just needed to mention it
That looks nice qwerty. Thanks for sharing. Mine Def looks a day or two till that. did you case and fruit together?

you can do as you want. other wait 'till they see few pins growing and then moving to fruiting conditions.
and about casing - you can case it and then wait some time it colonize bit at sides and then move to fruiting, or do a late casing and case it after u'll see pins grew (late casing).
BUT it is not necessary to case cubes.

if you use coir, fruit right when you case! if using peat/jiffy, optionable.

What do you see that tells you that? I'm not questioning you, I just wanna know what to look for So I don't do this in the future.
I've read you can expect no contams the first flush as long as your spawn is clean. True?

Your substrate is still vulnerable to contamination until it is fully colonized. You said yourself there's still uncolonized area. You want the mycelium to completely cover the substrate.

with coir+verm its not so much the vulnerable to contam as it is you want the entire substrate to be 1 big network of mycelium and not be cut off little islands separated by coir!

just added 3 tubs recently. very lightly cased them. no liners. 2 more tubs will join in the next few days. the first tub some have said may have been fruited early. These all had knots and few pins when cased and fruited immediately. Lets see.

I like to wait until they're open because with MS I'd be fucking around and opening that monotub 2-3 times a day instead of just letting some spores drop and then picking all at once.
