What to do with 2 quarts of WBS?
    #21814535 - 06/16/15 01:08 PM (9 years, 7 months ago)

So after losing 3 out of my 5 jars to contams, I'm stuck with a bit of a dilemma.

I have 2 jars left. One is about 95% colonized, the other is at about 75%.

Originally I had planned on spawning to coir/verm in a mono at a ratio of around 1:2. Now that I'm down to 2 quarts (which are colonizing at different rates) im not sure if I should go ahead with my mono and just spawn around 1:4, or make a smaller tub at 1:2, or do trays, or just case each jar individually as it finishes colonizing.

My goals are high yield, decently fast colonization, and no contams.

If anybody could assist I'd appreciate it, especially if you could point me in the direction of a helpful tek or two.

Thanks

Hey ya that's a pretty crappy dilemma. I would grain to grain them to more jars. Just prepare more grain, then dump some grain from your colonized jar into the un-colonized jar in a still air box and shake to distribute the colonized grain.

Have you thought of expanding your 2 jars of clean spawn to more grain?

2nd thought would be to do a mono bucket grow (2.5 gallon size works well for this). Of course any small container could be made to work, but buckets are easy. You can use a 1:2 spawn ratio, so this works great for single quarts of spawn.

The real question is what can't I do with two quarts of wbs.

G2g bud. The sky is the limit.

This. I've produced pounds upon pounds starting with 1 jar.

G2G for sure! I have 2 - 1 pound bags of APE that I plan to G2G out to around 20 half pound bags of rye.

Use a SAB and you'll have more spawn than you know what to do with in 2 weeks.

G2Ging a bag into a bag sounds like a nightmare.

Cut the bag close to the grain and use a spoon is my plan. We'll see. :shrug:

Have fun flaming a spoon, which you'll need to do for each transfer. The cool-down time alone would drive me nuts.

I have a micro torch so it won't take too long. I could make grain LC/LI with sterile water.

Grain LC isn't reliable. The guy who invented it (RR) said he wished he'd never have told anyone about it.

I've achieved almost two pounds wet from 2 qts of spawn.  I'm a big believer in a high spawn:sub ratio for quick colonization and less chance of contams.
