Can someone review my grow plan/ experiment

I will be executing this in my door room and will record and post the results here. I will be using PF classic Each different substrate will have it's own soda bottle fruiting chamber and will be given the same care and kept in the same environment. These will all variations of a BRF cake type mixture which are half verm always. In half pint jars
1.) standard brf cake 2.) Half BRF half dried organic tea 3.) brf cake with a pinch of gypsum
I'm just looking for input or if anyone is interested or has any other ideas. Once i start this experiment I will right full statice reports every week.

BRF cake and gyp will be fine, standard BRF will be fine as well. Organic tea is interesting.
Are you using isolate or MS? If you're using a vendor bought syringe or something you haven't isolated then these tests will be inconclusive

I'm just using a syring I bought on line but my thinking was having the standard brf cakes be my control group

Every spore in that syringe has different genetics. Some will grow tall, some will grow small, some won't grow at all.
This won't be conclusive :/
An isolate means you've controlled the genetic part so the substrate would matter more. I suggest growing them out, cloning a mushroom, growing that out and then using that clone to conduct your tests. At least then you'll have comparisons.

What is your goal here?
If it is to find a better way to make a cake, you should not be using spores, you should be using isolates.
Not trying to down talk your experiment, I encourage everyone to experiment a little, but just so u know, your results will be somewhat invalid because of the genetic crapshoot lottery we get with spores.....

If you haven't grown prior to this then experimenting really isn't what you should be focusing on.
Also everything Gyo and PF said is correct.

Again,
Not trying to get you down but an isolate means you've controlled the genetic part so the substrate would matter more. I suggest growing them out, cloning a mushroom, growing that out and then using that clone to conduct your tests. At least then you'll have comparisons.

Clone results can vary almost as much sometimes.

Yeah,
For a first grow I don't think an experiment is the way to go. I'd be more focused on actually getting good results, y'know? Until you get into agar it's all pretty much a shot in the dark.
Cloning would be the easiest route for him to go but nothing beats an isolate for testing.
Also I like your title PF 
@jbore
I thought he meant Dorm room or the entrance room to your house? No idea, I just rolled with it

Thanks for the advise guys! And yeah I meant dorm room. I grew in my dorm room last year this is more for fun than anything else. But I'm definitely going to listen to what you guys said. Thanks so much!
