Some are millet. Some are barley. Barley is hard to prep, like rice. If you do it just right tho, the myc loves it.

Here is a nice example of the difference with barley. The myc just rips through it, providing you can actually prep it without it becoming a massive mess. But here in this pic the two barley pints are nearly done, well ahead of the millet. I mean the millet are moving pretty decently too, I ain't complaining, but just having a little barley around to start the grow is sweet. Myc just hops of the wedge onto it.

Where do you get the barley and what is the cost vs oats?

The grocery store and its damn expensive compared to oats. But really I usually just want a couple bux worth to make up a half dozen pints which will be all G2G to cheaper grains like wheat, oats, or rye. The initial speed is worth the higher cost.

I shop at Wal-mart and Winco, which has bulk items, and I have no idea where to get barley. I would try it. I'm not sold now on bird seed, and oats are fine, but if there is a better alternative, it's not much money to test it.

Barley is really tricky to prep. I don't recommend it until you are comfortable with a wide range of grain preps.

Pasty what kind of millet do you use for masters? I'm switching to pint masters and bags, and I want something with more inoculation points. I've never asked the feed stores what kind of grains they sell besides oats.

The barley sounds interesting. I take it you aren't using pearled barley.

Actually this is pearled barley but hulled is easier to use. But the store only had pearled last time so I went with it. Works just fine as long as the prep is solid. Needs to be partially boiled and the rest of the hydration is done while PCing.

I just use feed millet from the local feed shop. Its just white millet.

Nice. The white millet is what I was hoping to find.

September 21st. . .
G2G of the pints was slightly delayed but grain has been prepped and I started to G2G some last night. Going to get more rolling tonight. Meanwhile we will track this going forward as P1 Tubs and P3 tubs, referring to which expansion is being fruited.

P1 Expansion tubs. . .

P1 tubs have given us a hint as to what the hell we have going on. I am now going to suspect that the pin that was cloned was either a CRS or a early rustywhyte that did not display leucism. Should know more by the time spores drop.

Straw coir manure worm castings tub. . .



Coir Verm is looking like its ready to pop.

P2 = second grain expansion. Though now that you mention it I guess it should be P1. Will correct :hatsoff:

Since you're making a grow log for it, you should rename it big pinterest clone.

It sure is easy to take an overwhelming number of clones and not remember what they are.  I have to pile up adjectives to keep naming them.  Sick cluster, Superballer Sick Cluster, Giant, Heavyweight Fatty Pantplosion.


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


I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister.  I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave.  I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent.
Triggered yet?

Only a square would say "a cube is a cube."


No, this does not look right...

September 24th. . .

These are looking more like CRS to me. This clone does not seem to like the casing much and if its from the original grow I think it is, those did best with no casing but a top layer at spawning. The primordia I have on my jar seems to bear that out. Will be the plan for the F3 expansion tubs. They also seem pretty damn humid, gonna dial up my FAE.

September 27th. . .


So I got the kitchen sink substrate tub on the verge of harvest. Will need to be at the crack of darkness before work like usual. Pinset is junk but I think I know why, seems this culture does better uncased. It also at first glance appears to be sporeless. Time will tell.



Coir tub casing is now taken over and forming hella primordia. Second flush should be a canopy :wow:



This jar with some leftover spawn and shaken up with some coir is providing a really good pinset despite being fruited invitro. This is why I think these will do better uncased.



P3 expansion tubs. . .


September 27th. . .

Receiving jars recovering from shake and G2G respectively. Looking healthy. Plan will be coir and verm, top layer at spawning on some, straight mix for the others.



Still have a couple masters to G2G, need to get cooking grain :facepalm:

I like the way you do things man. I think the reason my sterile procedure often goes to shit is because mycology sounds like a lot of fun when im blitzed, however my technique goes out the window. Im glad youre seeing success. Thanks again for the easy agar tek. Changed the game for me.
