Sealing spawn bags before PC cycle
    #22172748 - 09/01/15 07:14 AM (8 years, 4 months ago)

Hey all!

Was thinking about experimenting with injecting spawm bags with LI over pouring it in.

Ive heard of people Impulse sealing before pc run.

Would you just fold them up like normal but without tyvek, and then seal before the pc cycle?
How do you fill them back up with air after inoculation?

Thnks!

pirate is the man to ask.
from what i remember, he uses .5 bags, loads grain, pushes air out, folds, seals, packs PC, cook, take out, cut seal, g2g, re-make plenum above grain w/ hood, seal again.
the pre seal is basically used in lieu of the tyvek sleeve insert.
if u wanted to keep it totally sealed thru inoculation, u'd loose plenum.  people who use bags with SAB don't have large plenum, but its also not vac seal tight (look at franks bags for example, he use SAB/zip tie, there is still space above grains)

Ah I gotcha, thats what I thought.
I figured if Im going to try playinv around with LI why not just inject it into my bags.
Was hoping there might bel a trick I didnt know about :lol: I think Ill just pour  or squirt it in the bag

But that might be good to try presealing bag and slicing the top open to inoculate, sometimes no matter how well I fold the tyvek in I dont get a good seal on the bags wben I opem the cooker the next day, and I have to re do it which sucks.

While Im on it, I forget how much LI per 5qt spawn bag? I remember someone (maybe you?) Suggesting a cup of dry verm in the bottom to swallow up extra liquid

Thanks!

I use zip ties and polyfill to close up my bags. Then inject liquid inoculate or spores through the side of the bag. Then cover the hole with masking tape. Never had a problem

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.
