First Time Grow (Golden Teacher, B+ Cubensis)
    #22037362 - 08/03/15 12:00 PM (8 years, 5 months ago)

So I just received two syringes, one Golden Teacher, the other a B+ Cubensis strain. I plan on using the PF Tek method to cultivate these puppies. I don't have a pressure cooker, but I do have a pot with a tight lid. I plan to start with 5 jars each. I'm new at growing, and want to know if anybody has any advice for my first time. Should I only grow one strain first? Which one? Should I use a different method? Should I store my syringes in the refrigerator? Let me know if any of you have any tips and advice.

Go with PFTEK- watch the "lets grow mushrooms" videos, read "How Frank Gets His Shit Done"

Also, I do not have 1/2 pint mason jars, but do have half pint glasses. Would it be worth it to go ahead and buy mason jars, or should i make an aluminum foil lid for the cup?

My advice is to get a large PC and learn to prep some grain jars. Bulk growing is a lot easier IMO. And spore syringes can be kept at room temp. Check out Frank's write-ups, it has all the info you need to get started on the right foot. http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/17897163#17897163

1/2 pint wide mouth mason jars. Not the tall ones, the short and fat guys. The pint glasses have a much higher contam ratio.

I agree with bulk being easier, however, I think cakes are a good way to fuck everything up and not regret it as much.

great thing with pf cakes is you dont need a PC and materials are cheap.
you can use a half pt glass just fine.

it all comes down to what you want out of this, if you know you're gonna do this "forever" go ahead andby a pc right away,
if you wanna see what its all about just make some cakes. can always use those as spawn if you wanna see what monos are all about!

Went ahead and picked up an 8 qt pressure cooker and some mason jars. I want to make 3 cakes for the B+, and 3 for the Golden teacher. Do you recommend growing them at separate times? In separate terrariums? Should I start with more or less jars? I do not want to grow in bulk yet.

Also, I'm not sure if I have enough coarse verm for all the jars, but I have fine verm. Would using that for a couple jars work?

Fine verm is actually preferred.

Do them in the same terrarium, they won't have conflicting issues as they all like the same environment. We say a cube is a cube because they all grow the same (But have different effects IMO).

I've already watched and read many many videos and articles on PF Tek so no more links please! Thank you, though! But I was wondering if anyone had any unique advice to share? Any personal stories using different set-ups?

I would suggest doing a few jars every 2-3 days so you keep yourself busy and yield nice, and don't get that impatient :laugh:

Thank you! And I will try to stick with taygo's link as closely as I can! Should I make this a grow log?

Will do! I'll sterilize my jars tonight and I'll inoculate them in the morning.

Give them 16-24 hours.

Just a bit safer.

Are you saying 16-24 hours after sterilization? I've always done almost exactly twelve, and never had mycelium not start forming.

I don't even wait 12 sometimes, if I put my jars out and sleep for six or seven hours I can usually inoculate right then :shrug:

Does that mean you should tell someone on their first grow to go as minimal as possible? No. Why? 'Cause we want maximum success. Spores die at 122f and mycelium at 106f. I know that, do you think the OP does?

The goal when giving advice is to K.I.S.S. Keep It Stupid Simple. That's why RR's videos are the very basic in cultivation, because it teaches KISS before people get into bulk and gypsum.

Just informing you for future reference, when someone is on their first grow we will most likely try to get them to do things as by-the-book as possible.

MY ADVISE IS KEEP IT SIMPLE, SGFC BUILT TO SPEC , NO HYGROMETER, A GROW LOG WITH EVERY DETAIL INCLUDED!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry for yelling didnt' catch the caps lock lol, put your jars somehwere you are not going to need to touch them that much to check them because you are going to want to check them alot so a shelf is great


--------------------

It doesn't matter what i think of you...all that matters is clean spawn

I'm tired do me a favor

Good luck! You'll be happy with the results if you follow advice and get comfortable with your materials and procedures before you step it up imo
