Hell, even the side pins are awesome from my POV considering I was worried I may fuck something up and not get any mushrooms at all. There’s plenty of time to get that shit dialed in for future grows.
Spores started to drop about 3 hours after this pic was taken so I harvested. Didn’t bother weighing them wet, got them in the dehydrator now and will weigh them dry. They sure were a lot shorter than I expected them to be, hopefully the later flushes will net me some bigger ones.

Now that I know I can do it and I’ve got one under my belt, I can finally rest easy. Since this was my first grow, once I got pins I basically hovered over the tub and watched them grow until it was harvest time. Definitely gave them too much attention, something I can easily correct once I get a few more grows under my belt and the sight of new pins doesn’t excite the shit outta me.
Among others, thanks bod
Nice tub man I know how it is feeling that relief after finally getting mushrooms lol.
I recently did a gt grow and got similar sized first flush shrooms, they got much larger second and third flush.

Thanks Aka. Funny how We both got a handful of those weird nipples on the caps, and we both had one side of the tub go full canopy and the other side lookin much more sparse. I swear I wasn’t trying to copy you

This tek is meant to be least work required, so a tent complicates it a bit. I just needed a separate space in my closet to mist without moving bins and shoeboxes in and out each time.

That sounds like a big plastic bedroom lol Mine is like 5x3ft, a tiny space just big enough to fit a 4 shelf bakers rack in a closet. Someone above, Chainmaker, had asked about FAE in a tent so figured he meant pretty small.
It’s not part of the tek though, so up to your own dialing in.

Yeah...I was talking about a 2 x 2 with this totem tek and just exhausting tentwith a pc fan on a timer and passive intake. No closet/controllable light space besides extra tent. Like to find a tek for tote in a tent.

So there is no incubation time when you add spawn like other teks that require you to put foil over them? I am going to use This tek as it seems the easiest, and use pre sterilized rye berry bags and your coir recipe. How much light does say one 32 quart pr 50 something require because I'm trying to figure how many pound bags of spawn bags to get.. also thank you

I am just getting my stuff together for my first go...one thing I have learned already.. I could have gotten a PC for what I spent already on spore syringes, sterile rye berries, and compost. There is some easy tek for everything here it seems you got to find what works (or make it work) for your situation. I'm glad I found this forum before I got any deeper into buying more "time/labor savers"

Hi! Many thanks for this tek. I'm a newbie, but I'm going to start my shroomy adventure very soon (using your tek). I've got a question. How many times can I use a substrat? I mean after harvesting. Can I clear it, soak it in the water for sometime, then use it again? Or should I prepare a new one?

Yeah, you usually get a few flushes from a single sub. You throw it away when it's contaminated or when you don't feel like it's worth to keep it anymore.

Thank you poisoned! Do you know if I should fill this tub with water or take sub out of the tub and leave it in bath for few ours (between flushes)?

You can do the harvest tek and harvest+hydrate at the same time. There's so many ways to skin that cat.

Well I'm wondering how much light to give them, and I'm also thinking about spray painting the bottom black to stop side pins.

If you're fruiting them somewhere where daylight comes in, like your living room, you don't need any.
Painting the bottom black won't stop side pins.

Once you have healthy spawn, it's hard to fuck up completely. Read some teks here, use what you have, try not to complicate things and let it grow. We all live in different environments and you'll have to figure out what works for you.

Are you preparing your own spawn bags or ordering prepared bags?
Have you ever done bags? Are you planning to inoculate from multi-spore? Which grain are you using? Are you attempting to do G2G? Do you have a flow hood?
There are many things to consider.
If you've never grown I would highly recommend starting with jars. Grain is relatively simple but spawn bags require an understanding you won't have until you complete some grows from jars.
Of course I'm absolutely assuming you have 0 experience and TBH you're taking a big bite with bags/unmods. Has a noob had a sweet first unmod attempt? Yes. But luck is temporary.
Unmods teach better lessons than traditional monotubs. So you'll prob learn a lot much faster relatively speaking. I would just reconsider doing bags as a newcomer especially since healthy spawn is paramount for good results.
