First time grain...need advice (G2G or grain slurry)
    #21276363 - 02/15/15 09:33 AM (9 years, 10 months ago)

So I finally decided to try rye berries. I made a few jars that are waiting to be knocked up. I had some grain left over and this cheap little plastic container. So I decided why not use this crappy little container and see if I can use it. Drilled some holes in the top and cut a piece of tyvek. Knocked it up and covered the hole with a tiny piece of tyvek and a band aid. Not the prettiest but seems to be working. My idea is use this for either G2G or slurry. Any suggestions?

Be careful when you tip those for G2G that it doesn't all spill out :lol:

They were rinsed and then sat 24 hrs. Then they were slow boiled then drained. Loaded them into containers and jars in open air. Then i PC'd them.

Yes even though they are cheap dollar store containers I made sure they were Polypropylene.

Just shook these little containers up less then 11hrs ago and they are already back at it. Sorry if the pics suck but my camera doesn't like to focus on the container. Bump

It would be better if the pictures came out clearer especially when you zoom in on them. The mycelium growth looks awesome. It's like you can see sector growth in all different spots.

That's called rhizomorphic growth:

Rhizo:


Tomentose:

if you want to attempt the grain slurry you will need an oster blender wtih the blade attachment. this will fit snugly to a regular mouth quart, pint or 1/2 pint jar. this will make blending much easier. but you will need to break up the grain in the container. then transfer it to the jar that has the pre sterilized water/blender lid on it.

Are both forms of growth expected?

The form mycelium takes depends on available nutrients so both forms are expected and mean nothing. If you have low nutrients, the mycelium will appear ropey as it's stretching for nutes. If you have high nutrients it will appear tomentose.

Neither have any bearing on fruiting potential.

Why is a blender needed?

Well a slurry is basically blended mycelium in sterile water. You have to put the blender blades on a jar with some water, blades facing the inside, PC it to sterilise everything. Then you can put mycelium in there in a SAB, blend. Then what you have is a slurry. I would suggest you find a slurry tek if you need more information.
