Hey flabber, good to see you around pal What cross you got going Gyo? You may have already said but I'm a burnout
Found another good use for those fancy strainers, extend the handles and let it sit across the tub like you would the sink while harvesting, makes for easy picking

Hi Flabber! Good to see you back.
I just finished pouring 50 MEA plates, have the first 10 of 30 jars PCing, and am about to get started on mixing up some CVG for my next PE tub. Hopefully some of my plates will be ready for transfers tonight. If not, I'll make transfers on Tuesday when I case my other PE tub.

I just finished up two Mazatapec tubs and a GT tub. Even though the Mazatapec fruit were short they were meaty and mighty. Even at second flush I got a canopy! I got about 4oz dry from each flush from each tub and stopped after the second flush. I didn't see contamination, but the last flush dropped a shit load of spores on the substrate surface making it hard to tell.

I have the AA+ you gave me ready for oats. It looks different than other cubes on agar, but clean.

I have KSSS, APE, and a boat load of edibles ready to go to grain as well. I may try different substrates for each of these next time around. I got my hands on some straw. Not sure how to work with it yet, but I'm interested.

AA+ does look different for me then any other cubensis.
That's a beautiful pic, great work

Eh not for now. My paranoia is getting to me I've been lucky so far and don't want it to run out. In time though....in time.

I'm seriously drooling ND, can I come live with you? Hell I'll go gay for canopies like that, if that's what you're into. 
I'm on for round two now, I'll be knocking four more jars today. After I mixed these jars up, I realized that on my last batch I ended up doing a dry verm barrier that was about 1" thick. Considering that my syringes were 1", I was probably shooting my spore solution directly into the dry verm. Ooops, lol. That's probably why I only got growth on 2/6 jars. This time I did a proper 1/2" layer of dry verm, and I also bought a big pack of 1 1/2" syringe tips at the ranch supply store. I'm hoping for much better results on this go.

Thanks bro! straight and married to a hot young petite blonde tho 
I have seen that happen before with too thick of verm layer could be the problem, hopefully you have better success with the longer tips. If you have the room starting more projects is the way to go, gives you something to do while you wait.

Woooh it's so quiet in here. That's how you know that the grows are going well. My AA+ jars inoculated on 1/5 are just now showing faint points of colonization, looks like all four jars are going to colonize this time. So here's a toast to fast colonization and no contaminants, cause that's what I'm going for this time.

Hahahaha 
I got a lot of stuff planned. I was actually gonna start posting in this thread once a certain project starts fruiting. I took a small break and didn't have spawn lined up. Now I have 25+ jars 50% done and more done and agar that needs transfers and yada yada yada 
It was a well needed break anyway

I try to work it out where I only have to do myco work 1 day a week but It dosen't always work out that way. Prepping some oats for more AA+ going to grains tonight, spawning one AA+ tub today, several cornmeal plates will be ready for LI in the next couple days, cooking more agar for transfers of another project put to plates on the 8th.

It is tough if you work and have a family, like i'm sure many of y'all do. I end up doing most projects between 10PM and 3AM when everyone is asleep.
I tossed all of my AA+ trays. They were looking kind of nasty, and not fruiting, so away they went. I have a tub of Escondido that is just about to go into fruiting. This is a few transfers away from spores, and a test jar had high yields and potent fruits, so I have high hopes for this tub.
I NEED to drop some chicon nindo to oats TONIGHT, and also transfer some PE spores that finally germinated after 3+ wks.

Just gotta say, this thread is providing me with some very excellent motivation. I started my first mushroom grow the day after Christmas with PF Tek. So far so good, but cant wait to get more experience and more knowledge and hopefully get some yields like all of you. I'm back to lurking, keep posting these awesome pics!

Definitely, I do the majority of my sterile work in the AM as well when everyone including the animals are asleep or early in the morning. Else they are running in and out stirring up the air. Someone gave be a building but needs a lot of work to convert it to a proper work area.Quote:
