Spawn to substrate ratio question.
    #22149765 - 08/27/15 02:03 AM (8 years, 5 months ago)

i have a 16 inch long 11.5 inch wide 20 inch high 40 quart monotub.

Will i be able to get away with 1 jar of spawn to 5 quarts of substrate?

i only had 2 ml of penis envy spores left and want to get the most from the little spawn it made.

thanks guys been a while since i've been on mush cult, Lurked a few days ago and saw some people growing in open air and that shit blew my mind. keep up the good work mush cult.

How big is your one jar? You could possibly do it with a quart of spawn. It's going to take awhile to colonize. How about making a smaller casing?

Stop experimenting half way through your first grow. Grow it to maturity, watch it, learn from it. Do this a few times then experiment with different ideas and figure out what works best for you.

If you can prep 7 more grain jars do a g2g then you can do a full size mono or have extra jars in the fridge for more grows

Good point, i have more jars of spawn that are a couple days form done but only 2 of penis envy.

so i have a choice to make, rush out a few dicks or slow down and possibly double or triple my yield. :hmm:

I would look into getting some agar.  It's cheaper than another syringe, and it will let you get a hell of a lot out of 2ml of solution.  Grainwater nopour agar plates are piss easy.

If you already made used all the spore solution, you can take a single piece of grain to make agar plates or grain petris to use as a multispore master culture.

As others have said, you can just G2G it out as well, but I'd really suggest keeping a small container of grain or an agar plate as a master, so you don't need to buy more spores.  Clone something good from your grow too.



Other than that, I'd suggest you use an appropriate amount of grain for your container size.


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


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...

If you still have anything left in that syringe then your good man. It only takes a few drops in a jar and that's it. You can turn a few drops into a shit ton of spawn by transferring grains out. If I have 1 quart of spawn that I inoculated with a syringe. I could then g2g to 8-10 jars. And those 8-10 can g2g as well. Now I could have 100 jars that could be transferred to spawn bags and make 100 tubs. Just off a few drops :rockon:
