Hi All!
Spawned my first five Jars of PE (MSS>Grain on 6/12) into a 54qt Unbodified Sterilite tub this morning. Here are some pics of the jars before I shook them up.





Decided to stick to the TEK. 650g of Coco hydrated with just over 4qts of boiling water. Let it cook overnight in a preheated Igloo cooler. Mixed it up with my five quarts of Spawn and this is what it looked like before I put the top back on (upside down of course as per the updated tek). Now I'm going to ignore it for a week.

Will give yall an update in about a weeks time. Thanks again for all of your contributions BOD!!

What parts look bacterial to you guys? Just wondering as this is my first time spawning to bulk. All jars had awesome rhyzomorphic mycelium growth and were shaken at 20-30% colonization about 5-7 days ago. I will say that the grain on these was a bit over saturated as it was my first run through with Oats and the PC (had too many burst grains from too long a simmer). Didnt see any colors on the jars that had me worried although I could have some type of white bacteria growing I suppose. Smell was nice and fresh very mushroomy upon opening the jars and mixing with bulk sub. Guess we will just have to see what happens. I have 9 clean Agar>Grain jars that will be going G2G in the next week, so if my MSS jars come up dirty its all just a good learning experience.
Thanks, -N.Kron

The mycelium in the jars looks kind of creamy (which COULD be to much moisture as well (which may or may not be accompanied by bacteria))... should get SOMETHING though
Also, bacteria will show up as metabolites, but not visible directly... mold (trichoderma) will be white and fuzzy(hard to distinguish from myc) prior to green and crusty looking

I know the first two batches of 10 jars (20 jars total) I pc'd had way too much moisture. I threw the 10 worst ones out and kept the other 10 to see how they would perform. It was a combination of two factors, too long of a boil time (too many burst grains) and not letting them sit in the strainer for the prescribed hour to cool and release excess moisture. All I can do now is wait and see what comes out over the next two weeks. Live and learn, wont let it happen again.

Ah, I'm sure it'll work out, and if not, you've got fruits in your future!

I personally like to let it colonize pretty well before opening: still susceptible to contamination... but should be fine, some spawn straight you fruiting conditions

We make a tub with our bare hands in open air while breathing over it. Its not susceptible to contamination or our grows would all go to shit. Let alone the concept of open air grows, a lid isn't keeping out contaminants anyway

Lid is on upside down since spawning yesterday under a t5 light set to 12/12. I figured taking the lid off for a picture for a second wouldn't hurt anything. If this tub fails its going to be because of bad spawn, not because I took the lid off for a five second photo op. Just my thoughts though.

Looks like your spawn is recovering well after the first 24hrs. Do you have a thread going for this grow?

Have not taken the time to start one up yet. I have all my pictures updated and have time to spare later tonight so I will start a journal then. Thanks for the interest dude, your journal has been super fun to watch!!

first post here, first attempt at mushrooms.
not a drug user, but looking for therepeutic usage.
MS mazatec; 4 wbs jars; 29qt deep container filled to about 4" bulk/substrate.
lots of reading from this site.
many thanks to bodhisatta and others for the wealth of information. bodhi's posts have been especially useful.
take a peek. we're at inoc+17 days. bulk spawned on +15, so the pictures are 48 hours after bulk.


i believe these show pinning? pinning isn't a concept i'd been introduced to before; never really thought about what happens to mycelium when it fruits. cool to see.
what a fascinating hobby. i can see myself growing edibles.
i have my agar supplies and i'm ready to move on from ms; or at least, i'm ready to move toward agar for consistent growing.

no pins yet but almost fully colonized. then you'll see knots, primordia, pins, then fruits. Good job!

Not being snide, but I think it's Mazatapec: different part of Mexico... just put Some to agar myself; will be watching for updates!

Welcome to the forum; you've found a great resource for sure!
I think deep down; we all take these for theraputic reasons; some just prefer a higher dose than others; and more often
