Hey all,
been lurking the forum for about 2 months trying to gather all info on mycology that there is..specific and finally decided I needed a question answered.
Here is my situation if anyone would like to critique:
1. I plan on doing a monotub or a couple dub tubs. 2. I have ordered GT and plan to inoculate 10 qts. pre-sterilized rye berry bags which are split up with 2 quarts in each bag. Lots of my time was actually spent learning about pasturation tek/sterilization teks but THEN I found out about pre-sterilized/pasturized stuff from this sites vendors and the rest is history. 3. I plan on using the sites (out-grow) 50/50 horse poo/gw straw to fill the bins up.
Question 1. I've called out-grow and the guy who answered said that the pasteurized substrate was at field capacity, so would I need to mist the tub's walls prior to putting the lid on which would be the start of fruiting?
Question 2. I plan on lining the inside of the tub with a trashbag, and correct me if im wrong (because some teks just tape the outer container) but aren't I supposed to leave the trashbags in a position to where the water falls in the bin, not on my substrate? I do not plan on casing.
Question 3. Due to me getting pre sterilized grow bags with the rubber ports, what sterile tek would you recoomend for me? I couldn't find any besides what the websites was and that one says to swipe with an alcohol pad as a last step but I've read that burning the end and then squirting a little solution out would be best?
Thanks guys and I appreciate anyone who took the time to read all that!!

First of all welcome .....
You need to remove sponsors name from your post by editting ... It is just part of the rules...
I will say you should try starting with pf tek just to get a feeling for process...
If you insist on doing it big first try ordering the 1# bags it will give you more chances of success...
To answer question #1 you are a long way. From that point... But No is answer IMHO.
#2 liner is an option... No liner use taped off bottom...
#3 In a still air box(SAB) you wipe ininjection point with presterillized alcohol wipe, flame sterilize needle then inject...
Once again I urge you to try pf tek to get a feel for procedures...
Welcome to your new obsession.
