Sandcastle Attempt(Novelty) * 2
    #21820590 - 06/17/15 08:04 PM (8 years, 7 months ago)

:chief:SANDCASTLE ATTEMPT:chief:




Brought to you by THE TRIBE



Amazon:1 brick coir/2 quart verm/gypsum/ 4 quarts wbs spawn       

Well, first of all PPP came up with the cool idea. I have been meaning to mess with it for the last 6 months. I wanted to mess with the idea with real sand castle molds. Finally remembered to buy some molds. This is purely for fun.

PPP'S Standcastle Tek

The substrate was spawned and mixed thoroughly with gloves on. Making sure a nice light and fluffy mixture was achieved. The substrate was lightly packed into each mold. The remaining substrate was laid flat. Each mold was flipped upside down in a quick motion. The tub was left to colonize. A casing will not be applied at fruiting.

Attempt 1: Failed. heat wave hit. grow room hit 84 degrees.:thumbdown:


Attempt 2:

So you pasteurize bulk with the supercake mix? That seems like an awful lot of nutrients to not sterilize. Hip made it to be sterilized. Have you done this before?

yes i have been doing this since 2008 with great success. very little contamination. after pasteurization, the substrate is left in turkey tins to cool in the oven and spawned before the next day is finished. full colonization of the substrate takes 3 days on average. can't tell you the number of times ive done it but if you multiply 52 weeks time 7 years. a rough estimate is 364 times. that number is possibly higher with multiple tubs.

with nutrient additives to bulk substrates it is not like coco fiber. you can't leave them out and expect the substrate to not contaminate. you must spawn within the next day after pasteurization. but it does give the sub a "boost". colonization times are faster, fruit size is larger, the benefits through multiple flushes are great. in fact, i began adding it to bulk substrates before hip had passed on. i have some threads at topia with it added. the largest mushroom ive grow was the length of my arm from supercake and burma cubensis.

good to see you 365. and congratulations!

here is a thread about it.

Sorry for the newb question here, but I know "supercake" to be just a large pf style cake inside of bags.  Here it seems as if you are all referring to said "supercake" as a sort of nutrient additive formula.  What is this "supercake" formula you all speak of??

Im using it as dry ingredients as a substrate additive. About a quarter cup to a half cup per 10 quart substrate. Im actually going to update that thread soon.
