New grower. A few questions
    #22178591 - 09/02/15 03:13 PM (8 years, 4 months ago)

Hey everyone I've finally decided to start growing but I had a few questions regarding the SGFC and spore syringes.

1. How often should I mist and air out the SGFC each day?

2. Can I use trays for bulk growing in it?

3. Would elevating the SGFCs above a heating pad be a good idea?

4. Can I place lights directly in the chamber or should I leave them out?

5. What size needle should I use on my spore syringe and how many CCs should I use for each cake?

I apologize ahead of time if I asked any stupid questions. I just want to make sure I'm not doing anything wrong.

Your fruiting chamber should be providing enough fresh air exchange to not require fanning, and you should mist whenever you notice your casing layer looking dry. For me that's about three times a day. (Using jiffy mix)

More than likely.

Probably not, sounds like a fire hazard.

You don't want the light to be too bright, so keep them out.

16 gauge for spore syringes, 14 gauge for liquid cultures, and 1/4 CC per inoculation. Four inoculations = 1CC per jar.
