Lol my girlfriend is mad because she wants tea but there's not enough I know it'll be a waste of time. I made 2 fat bags of beef jerky. I already love my new dehydrater!

What vibrator, er, dehydrator did you get? We got the Presto cheapo. Plug it in and pull the plug when it's done. No muss, no fuss. The first one didn't work, so we had to return it and get another one. This one worked well, if a little loud. Finally ordered a 20 qt PC from Amazon, so now I can do quantity in quarts. I think I'll let the SGFC and PF-TEK go soon. Stick with mini-monos and get them right...with agar. Got to do agar if you aren't, Devon. It's the key.
1000 posts in this thread, and 750 are yours?

Cheap 60$ dehydrater has 6 racks works pretty good. I'll move to agar once I'm done with all my trays and monos and pf cakes. I'm doing a lot so yea I post a lot in my thread that documents what I'm doing

Devon, a little unasked-for advice, if I may.
Pick a tek and stick with it. Focus, man! lol Seriously, bro, you are all over the place with this. Popcorn, in vitro, PF-tek, pans, monos? If there's anything you left out, I don't know what it would be. How do you keep it all straight in your head?
Do PF-TEK and start working with agar. It's tits, man. Put your energy into learning agar and you'll have a lot more fun. PF-TEK has taught me tons, and I'm getting some very nice shrooms out of it. I'm moving on to oats, LI and LC, and mini-monos. I don't have room for any big tubs, so minis are my way. I know they are more difficult to dial in, but I'll figure it out. This will be the only thing I'm going to do for now. Just concentrating on agar tek and mini-monos. Going for quality, more than quantity, drilling down.
I'm an old guy whose memory isn't so good. I forget to write everything down, too, so the more focused I am on one tek, the better.
Just a friendly smile for you, and I really hope it helps. I'd rather be the best at one thing than marginal at everything. Peace.

Yea I have a lot going on but it's all I do so its not hard to keep track. I write it all down. I know I should stick with one tek I know that but I can't I'm impatient and I want to see which tek I like and which works for me. I jumped into the deep end, hopefully I can build a mushroom raft and sail out haha. My mini mono is gone for it's the worst contamination I've produced yet!
 But my big mono I have hope for. I put all my eggs in that basket!! Should I put it into fruiting yet guys??

Don't fruit that mono. Did you case it? If not then you have like 7-10 days to go for full colonization. If you did then maybe 2-5.

Holy crap, that mini was fucked as all hell! I thought it didn't look right a few days ago. I hope you got rid of it asap! Looks like another day or 2 and that entire substrate surface would have been green. I gotta say, that much green is quite a feat. I've never had a green patch show up anywhere near as large as that .
That big mono is nowhere near ready for fruiting. Since you are just pseudo-casing with more substrate(coir\verm), I would wait for full colonization.
If you case with 50/50 with peat after full colonization of the substrate you then want to wait until the peat casing layer is 30-50% colonized before fruiting.
I would limit opening up that colonizing monotub for pictures until its ready for fruiting. Especially if you opened that green bastard mini mono to take pics in your house.

Dude you really need to be checking your shit more often. Every time you let shit like that happen it increases the chances of it happening again. I've never been able to get a patch of green that big.
Also someone recommended PF tek and agar, how do you inoculate PF jars with agar? Would be thrilled to learn the details behind that. If it's not through the use of LI then I think he's probably fine doing what he's doing with monos. The popcorn can go obviously but, no reason to downgrade from monos.
