Spawning brf cakes to bulk
    #21878516 - 06/30/15 03:06 PM (8 years, 6 months ago)

I'm going to do some to hpoo, some to coir, some to peat, mixes- just play around a little with the substrates to see how they react. My question is, do I still let the brf cakes consolidate? (And yes this is an impatience question, lol).

Obviously I know it would be good for at least a day to go by to make sure they are fully colonized but I wonder if breaking them up while it's still got the beautiful strandy runners radiating outwards of it may speed colonization.

yes there is no need to consolidate, but make sure the cakes are 100% or else it'll fail hard.

I wouldn't bother with the peat based subs, peat is a good casing layer because the myc wont colonize it as easily..

Cool, thanks for the heads up! Guess I'll go ahead and spawn one- should I still dunk? Or is bringing the sub up to field capacity enough?

IME it gets harder to break them up if you dunk them, but in theory a good dunk can only help. try some and see how you like it.

Awesome, I'm always down to experiment.

One last question- I plan on also just letting cakes fruit too, I have enough room in my sgfc to do some of both- would you recommend butting my strongest colonizers into the bulk, or the other way around for a theoretical better yield?

impossible to say. all you know is you have a fast colonizer then, it wont tell you anything about fruiting potential..

I'd use the fast colonizers to colonize bulk sub tho. just makes sense to me :shrug:

That's what I was thinking. Appreciate it! Now, I have work to do!
